Make Me Feel It : 3 Option Contest!

Okay, here's the deal.

This is yet another of my options contests.

Rules are as follows:
1. No bashing other contestants.
2. Swearing is allowed, though not if every other word is a swear word.
3. Have fun & make me feel it!
4. Put "Heaven's not a place that you go when you die, it's the moment in life when you actually feel alive" in your author's notes box. If you do not, you will be DQ'ed.

On to the options!!!

OPTION ONE:
Write about something traumatic from your past or that you are going through. Topics such as rape, losing a loved one, drugs, and mental illness are all some examples. Let me know how it made you feel. Set up the situation so i can see it clearly in my mind. MAKE ME FEEL IT.

OPTION TWO:
Dirty Pretty. However, I don't just want random things. have a theme to it. I want exquisite descriptions and amazing analogies.MAKE ME FEEL IT.

OPTION THREE:
Coming out. Let me know how you came out about your sexuality. Or how you're afraid to. Or write about your pride to be gay/lesbian/bi/questioning or whatever. I will also accept TASTEFUL poetry on why you don't like gays, or lesbian, or bisexual and the like. Again, MAKE ME FEEL IT.

So that's that!

Rhyming is by all means accepted. I write rhyming poetry myself, so I LOVE a good rhyme scheme.

POINTS AWARDED WILL BE AS FOLLOWS:

Gold-600 Pt's
Silver-200 Pt's
Bronze/Copper-75 Pt's
And TWO honorable mentions!

 

GO FOR IT, AND HAVE FUN!

    Can we enter any prose because I have a piece that would work?
    I have a poem that was about watching someone I loved hurt because of me- and that was a really difficult time for me- can i use that?
