Well I've got lots of points so why the hell not?
I LOVE the song Paint it Black by the Rolling Stones. and since I've been through a dark time lately it seems like an appropriate theme for a contest. so I really hope it's a success.
SO! song is your prompt. do what you want with it! make it interesting....and preferably dark. but write whatever you want.
Use the title to prompt you or the lyrics which I'll put here:
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and theyre all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens evry day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then Ill fade away and not have to face the facts
Its not easy facin up when your whole world is black
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the settin sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin comes
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
Hmm, hmm, hmm,...
I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah!
RULES:
1. no shift key bashing.
2. please while the contest is running DO NOT enter the poem in another contest because I find it extremely rude. do with it as you please AFTER I've judged.
3. please write your words in full, none of this chat speak.
So thats it.... GO FOR IT! make me proud guys!
may add points or HMs depending on how well it goes.
