I want to feel fear for once in my life. So i've decided that i should hold a contest in order to obtain this goal. Show me the best way to obtain the nervousness in which fear resides. I want to be terrified of reading the next line but so intrigued that i have to go on. Just to let you know what i like I can't bear to read sickly sweet romances so do not write me one of those however i would not care if you were to write one about dark deceitful lovers. I prefer rhyming poetry to non-rhyming but however you write please make it your best.
If you need any inspiration feel free to look at my poems or the ones that are already entered. I will also be available if you need to message me about any questions. Please don't be afraid to enter because you don't understand something just message me and i will answer to the best of my ability so that you are not so discouraged.
Here are the rules:
1) No chat or text speak please. I do not want to know when to lmao or rotfl. The only instance that you may use these is if that is how the person in the poem is talking and only in dialog.
2) No graphic sex epascades. I will be utterly frank on this instance, I do not want to read about where they did it, how they did it, and how good it felt. If you feel the need to write about something sexual then please write it suggestively not disgustingly. No loopholes. Sorry
3) No bashing please. I don't want to read about someone that you think should die. I don't care if you write them in a great likeness but don't mention any names please.
4) I would like you to give your poem a title that does not directly relate to what it is about. It needs to have an adjective and then a noun at the very lest. If you can not think of anything let me know and i will give you one after your poem is written.
5) Have fun. I want this poem to be about your essence not all my rules.
6) When you finish reading these instructions i want you to put 'Homosexuals are gay.' Then write something about thanking Captain Obvious. Think of this as your comic relief. i.e. Homosexuals are gay. Thank you Captain Obvious ...(i hadn't noticed, you've struck again, etc.) not copy and pasting this.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns please feel free to contact me. Good Luck to you.
Yours Eternally

Ok, usually the "Put this in your AN" is usually dumb enough, but yours is just really stupid.
Is that supposed to be funny?
How about instead "Bitches are females", or "Handicapped children are easy targets"...you know, make it as abrasively funnt (and obvious) as possible?
