she only sleeps when it's raining .

Okay, so this contest is pretty much going to be just like my other one .

 

I want you to enter two poems again:

Either TWO fresh writes

or

ONE pre-write and ONE fresh write.

Do NOT give me two prewrites.

 

Prose/free verse only . Write about anything . Metaphors/imagery/emotion is a plus .

Don't give me two poems you wrote in five minutes. I want QUALITY poetry. I don't care how long you make it, but please don't enter a free verse poem that's only 10 lines or something. That just bothers me.

 

Favorites, please enter :] .

 

**For some reason, no matter how big/bolded/bright I make this rule, people never ever seem to follow it.

I DON'T WANT RHYMING POEMS. IF YOU ENTER A POEM WITH RHYME, YOU WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE CONTEST. DO NOT ASK ME IF YOU CAN ENTER A RHYMING POEM BECAUSE THE ANSWER WILL BE NO. NO.RHYME.**

 

Have fun; think outside the box!
