10 poets
10 lines
This is your prompt:
"Who's gonna call on Sunday morning?
Who's gonna drive you home?
I just want one more chance
To put my arms in fragile hands."
-from Paperthin Hymn by Anberlin
1. Check grammar and spelling please
2. put "totally awesome monkies" in your author's notes to let me know you read this.
3. don't go over 10 lines
4. Have Fun!
**EDIT**
Ok, when I say that the above lyrics are your prompt I mean that I want you to use them as inspiration, I don't want you to put the direct lyrics in your poem, I want you to be creative and think of a situation pertaining to the lyrics. Just wanted to clerify, as, some people seemed confused on that. Someone who doesn't have the lyrics in their poem at the end of contest has a better chance of winning, than someone who does, unless I absolutely love their piece. Not trying to sound rude or pushy here, just wanting to clarify! =)
