laura's 50th-gold-trophy celebration

[Pic at the top is of me and a former friend... I'm the goth-chick on the right!] 

 

Hello, lovely poets!

 

My poem "Separation Anxiety" just earned me my 50th gold trophy, given to me by the lovely Michaella for winning her contest, "Express Yourself". Therefore, I am inviting all you wonderful people to celebrate with me!

 

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to give me your best gold-trophy winner, the one you think deserves to live forever in infamy! It can also have won other trophies [ie Silver, Bronze, HMs], but there must be at least one gold shiny, which must still be shown on the poem's page.  

 

Since it's my party, and I'll cry if I want to, there are a few ground rules: 

 

- No bashing me or each other. 

- Nothing over 50 lines.

- Spell-check is your friend, so please use it.

- No emo or dirty-pretty crap.

- No glorifying of self-injury, rape, or abuse of anyone/anything. 

- Label adult or erotic content appropriately. 

- No whining or harassing me if I leave a constructive critique. Sore losers will be DQed without question!

 

Hints:

 

-I prefer dark and free-verse

-I'm not a crier, so if you can bring me to tears, you will most likely win gold. 

 

Points and the like will be added or subtracted, and the contest will close at my discretion.  

That's it, that's all.  

 

Good luck, my loves ♥
