quickie reposted from this morning

 

Update - All slots are filled. You have around 42 hours to complete this.

 

This quickie is a lil different compared to others.

 

First you'll need to reserve. Then I am going to give you a name. You will make the name I give you come to life. In your notes or somewhere on the post state what kind of mood you're in and if you want a female or male name.

 

This is an example of a kind of poem I'm looking for if you don't understand what I am saying :

Also here is the contest that it won silver with that goes into a lot of detail of what I'm talking about :

http://allpoetry.com/contest/2433847

 

If you don't want a name I will give you a picture that you must bring to life.

 

Rules -

 

1. You can't go over 25 lines. You can do anything from 30 words to 25 lines.

2. If you win please try and host another contest like this but you don't have to.

3. Please label all poems accordingly.

4. You're welcome to use profanity but please don't overdo it.

5. No erotica. Love poetry is welcomed but no erotica.

6. No cutting poems please.

7. If you pick the picture prompt please put the link in your author notes and Do NOT use the picture in your post. If I see the picture in your post it won't win. It's only for inspiration.

8. Any form is fine.

9. No prewrites.

10. Plain backgrounds please and left align IF possible.

11. First 15 only.

 

 

Prizes may or may not increase. I am hoping to judge this tonight at some point but it depends on how many enter and how long it takes them. If not I'll judge it by tomorrow night. If you need some more time please let me know. Due to request I am going to leave this opened for the night.

 

Any questions? Ask

 

Oh, I love abstract but not words that I don't understand.

 

Have fun

  • Thanks. I am all through. If the contest is still open when I log on tomorrow I will edit. Thanks for the inspiration. Maybe I'll do more with her later too. Had a Francine collection for some time.
