Congratulations, ladies, and welcome to the top 6. This contest has been quite the ride so far, as Emma found out in the write-off.

This round, we're going to be playing with...

QUOTE-PROMPTS!

Each of you will receive a quote from another contestant's poem, and write based on what that quote makes you feel. But here's the catch: you must use a different form than that of the person you are quoting.

Example: If I give Liz a quote from a prose written by Nienna, Liz's piece would have to be in rhyme, or some other regimented form. Likewise, if I gave Nienna a quote from a terza-rima written by Emma, Nienna's entry would have to be in free-verse or prose.

Rules are the same as before. Watch your IMs for ze prompts!

At the end of this round, three poets will be cut.






GO!

    ...bad news.
    I'm pretty sure I won't be able to finish this prompt.

    I've tried again and again to write it out, and...I can't.

    Plus my schedule isn't allowing me the patience...

    I hate to be a quitter, but I may have to leave this round... I'm sorry. If I don't suddenly get inspired by tonight, I might go....

    love, my mom has been completely bitchy and hasn't given me any time alone to write, or time to even think about anything else other than running and not returning.. if you could, can i have until.. sunday night to post it? I know that's a long extension but ;_;

    Okay. I'm leaving. I'm sorry...the extension didn't even help me >_< I'm very sad to have to leave, but I guess I don't really have a choice at this point. I'll try to be in another contest for you in the future...

    So I wish the rest of the poets good luck! You've all come so far, and I wish you all the best! <3
