This is my second contest. I was very pleased with my first one and decided that I would try and get rid of some more points to run another contest.
Here is the prompt:
iris
please don't give me the cliche kind of thing about your eyes.
i want deep poetry, full of metaphor and void of cliche
Rules:
- Like my last one, put your name in the author's notes
- No more than 15 lines, 90 word max
- swearing is okay, but not to extensive
- no bashing other entries
- no rhyme
And... that's about it.
Oh! and if I get less than 15 entries i will close the contest. I want lots and lots of submissions!!
Good luck!
