like seven inches from the midday sun...
left align
mostly no end line rhyme
no cheese & no cheese smut
careful with your adjectives
there is no right or wrong - take this where ever it leads you
just don't write about the picture
give me your heart
make it real
or else forget about it...

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on July 20
- Rewards: Gold: 700, Silver: 500, Bronze: 300
- Final notes: Soon after i posted this contest I almost removed it because it suddenly occurred to me that I could just get a lot of poetry that would make me cringe.
You have all proven me so wrong. What an amazing collection of talent gathered for this contest. Every single person really pulled out the stops.
Every couple days i would get an IM from Al asking - did you see this one?
We read and reread
and ultimately at the end of the contest
our finalist list looked exactly the same
all ten of you.
Anyhow- a GREAT collection of poetry
1. Balldinger Hotter than meds and canned peppers
[go read this one! wow!]
2. Evil Kate - this past, becomes elegy
[tight, strong imagery- amazing]
3. Jantastic - chance of showers
[perfect placed images]
4. Suzanne dia- the origin of greed
[perfect piece of writing]
Thanks to everyone!
Please be sure to check out our latest contest on my page- Some good entries in there thus far but there is definitely still some wiggle room.

I can't enter, for my mind is tired, but, my muse thanks you, she loves Santana and Matchbox 20, so naturally, she adores the song you have reminded her of.
Thanks, now she won't stop singing
