Okay, people. I want your most random, hilarious, weird, and off the wall poems here. The more unbelievably odd, the better. Here's the rules:
1. Free verse, rhyme, any format is accepted
2. pLeAsE nOnE oF tHiS cRaP unless you want me to jump off the highest precipice of the Grand Canyon into shark-infested waters below
3. No erotica/adult stories. Keep it clean.
4. Be as long as you like, but it better be good
5. DO NOT BE CLICHE! None of the same old stuff I read everyday!
For an example of what I'm looking for, read "My Friend in a Golden Wrapper," by me.
I'll for sure comment on every entry, probably within a few days. Point values may increase, but I'm not sure.
I repeat, do not be cliche! If you need something to start you off, try: Something hit me on the head today. I looked down and realized it was...
You don't have to do that, it's just a suggestion in case you have a severe case of writer's block.
Now go get writing! Go!

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on November 26, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 300, Bronze: 200, Honorable mention: 3 people
- Final notes: I got a heck of a lot of random and well thought out poems. In judging this contest, I decided to pick the ones that were both random and well written. Just because you didn't win doesn't mean I didn't like your poem. There was a jillion entries, and some were good but not quite random enough, and then there were others I couldn't quite get my head around. Thanks for everyone's entries and work, sorry it took so long to judge.
