Hello!
I feel like reading and commenting on a lot of entries. So please, give me your BEST. Your top-of-the-line! I'm open minded, so any topic is fine except for erotica. Swearing is okay, but be tactful. I love poetic devices and imagery.
Points and trophies will go up. I will use points from commenting for awards.
I will most likely (depending on how many entries I get) critique your poem. So if you're faint hearted, beware.
Have fun!

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on August 4
- Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 400, Bronze: 300, Honorable mention: 5 people
- Final notes: Hi! Thankyou so much for being patient while I took *forever* to judge this.
I didn't comment on all of the entries yet because I'm in a bit of a time crunch, but I read through them all. I will comment on all of them though over the course of this month.
Congratulations to the gold, silver, and bronze winners. I loved your work, it was so hard to chose.
I had so many different, unique entries, I wish I could give more honorable mentions. Speaking of which, HM's are in no particular order.
Thanks again for participating! <3
