100 shiny ones.

thank you so very much to the wonderful Aeris Silverlight for my 100th gold trophy

 

so, let's celebrate. i want one of 2 things from you:

 

-your winning prewrite with at least 2 gold trophies. no more than 5 golds, though.

-your best poem that has never won anything and you think deserves gold.

 

hint: i prefer dark/sad/abstract writes. emo is not sad. bonus points if you can make me cry.

 

rules:

 

-FREEVERSE/PROSE ONLY.

-plain backgrounds only. and please, nothing that'll make me go blind.

-sensual is ok. porn is not. know the difference.

-angst is also ok. whiny, emo shit is not. know the difference.

-imagery and poetic devices are your friends. use them.

 

i am allergic to poor spelling and grammar, slang, typing like an idiot, teenage-vampire-bullshit, and rhyme of any kind. if i see this in my contest, i will dq you without explanation.

 

thank you in advance for following my rules.

 

good luck ♥

    Sorry this took so long to judge. My moving-date is a lot closer than I thought, so I didn't really have time to comment on everyone's entries.

    Anyway, most of you did well, and as you can see, I added a lot of points. Your HMs are in order... Congratulations to the winners.

    Now, back to packing.

  2. Lines, or Falling
    I dreamt I could slide down the lines of your face. That I could slip into the shallow creases and ride them all the way down, until I drop off your jaw line and land on your belly. Lines like soft grooves in mahogany.

        next time i'm in ottawa we should molest the statues and go dancing or something! although i don't know when that will be. i may go up to montreal next spring, as i'll be out of the states for a while (fortunately ) and will only be returning to finish a few weeks of school, collect my things, and say goodbye to everyone before i run away to latvia, lol.
