NO MORE ENTRYS.

I'm not sure how long I can close this for judging so I thought I'd be safe and just say no more entrys. So if you do enter more I'll disqualify you. I'm not trying to be mean, I'm trying to be fair to the people who entered this contest way to long ago. I'm sorry for the delay, I really want to get around to all the poems and comment on them all before I judge. It's taking longer than I expected.


Anything goes but I'm looking for poems on the subjects of

-the homeless
-peace
-suicide
-eating disorders
-broken hearts
-experiences with being used
-experiences with bad parents/people
-hippies
-etc.

(does not have to fit perfectly into the subject)

IMPORTANT: you do not have to write in these subjects if you write a NEW poem
you can enter up to FIVE poems (so take advantage of this!)

prewrites ARE ALLOWED!
IMPORTANT:
-if you enter ONE prewritten poem it MUST relate to the subjects i named above
-if you enter TWO prewritten poem's you MUST relate ONE to the subjects
-if you enter THREE prewritten poem's you MUST relate TWO to the subjects
-if you enter FOUR to FIVE prewritten poem's you MUST relate TWO to the subjects

-if you enter any amount of new poem's you DO NOT HAVE TO relate them to the subjects

the following ARE ALLOWED!
-erotic (i've seen it all, heard it all, done some of it, so go for it)
-cussing/swearing
-anything such as dirty pretty (i have no idea what that is but go for it?)
-graphic, disturbing, gut wrenching is RECOMENDED!



MIN of THREE lines, MAX of ONEHUNDRED lines
(if you go over 100 by a few lines you'll be fine, if you go over by ten or more please notify me)




SO GO FOR IT, ENTER ENTER ENTER! win gold =]

IMPORTANT: problems with multiple entrys may occur, please if you cant enter more then one just follow the rules above for the ONE ENTRY.
