preliminary round; i wear a halo when you look at me.


So, this is kind of basically the preliminary round. I want you to enter a prewrite that I have NOT commented on/read, and I will simply give you a yes or no and a brief comment on your piece. I won't be too hard of a critic on this round. I'll save that for later.


This is also to see if anyone would like to help with future rounds. I have some ideas, and since it's summer vacation for me and probably for others if not now, pretty damn soon, I figured now would be the best time to hold another rounds contest.


**50 poets will be making it to round 2**


Rules;
-BE COMMITTED. If you're not going to enter the next round & so on & so forth, then simply don't enter.
-Prose/freeverse only.
-Emotionnnn.
-Imagery/Poetic Devices


Put your allpoetry name spaced out in your author's notes like this:

i n n o c e n c e j a d e d . x x


& that should be all! Any questions, feel free to ask. :] this will be closed as soon as I find 50 entries I REALLY like. So it could be judged tonight, or tomorrow, or next week. I guess we'll see.
