Okay, the title is kind of self-explanatory. I want poems dealing with the seven deadly sins.
Pick One:
1.Wrath
2.Greed
3.Lust
4.Envy
5.Vanity
6.Gluttony
7.Sloth
Also, if you want to do a composite work of the sins, feel free to. I'd be interested in reading that. Just make sure to list which ones you used in the AN.
Please type your selection in the author's notes.
And the rules:
1. Pick one of the above to write about.
2. Please check spelling and grammar. I'm not really critical, but...
3. PW are allowed
Other than that, have fun!
Oh, and I like rhyming and nonrhyming poetry alike, so, write whatever you feel most comfortable with.
I will comment on all entries.
If you have any quesions, feel free to ask.
And, a big thanks goes to a special member of AP that donated points to help me fund my first contest without using all of my own points. He knows who he is. Thank you.
I'm sorry, but, due to unforeseen events, I have had to cut this contest short. Thank you all for entering. Good luck. And, hopefully, within a few weeks I'll have another contest up and running.
--Genesis.

ok
Genesis, what exactly are you looking for, poems that describe or poem that deals with one of the seven deadly sins? I am lost and it sounds Good so fill me in lol. -
-
You can do whatever you want with it as long as it pertains to one of the sins. You can write, describing the sin, or you can create a situation in which one of the sins is committed. For example, for "lust" you might describe what lust is, or you might actually tell of a situation in which someone deals with lust, or acts on their lusts. I'm open to your creativity. Hope this helped.
