I mean Form, I love a well done form poem. 
I see freeverse as a form too, so you can write that if you wish, but I see freeverse as the easiest form to write so it prolly wont get you first.
So, please just write in a form for me.
rules:
NO: Erotica, (can be sensual, but not sexual).
Cutting (can be dark but no self harm or suicide)
Cussing (i think a poem can be great without it)
So so so work work work. and make me proud.

Free verse the "easiest" form. No way - at least not if it is to be genuine poetry and not merely chopped-up prose!
In my experience, one needs several years training in strict forms before attempting free verse!

That's your opinion and I have mine.
Can you not let someone think differently from yourself?
I find freeverse simple, not just the chopped up prose, but the free flowing amazing poetry I and many of my peers have written without years of training.
This is my contest and I have a right to say what I wish, if you disagree please dont come in just to tell me that Im wrong. Write me a good freeverse with this experience you say you've had.
I look forward to your entry.

Actually, I agree with you ...
on free verse, as I am not a big fan of free verse at all; but really, Vera wasn't being rude in what she said, whereas your answer was rude. She was only expressing her opinion, and considering that she is the Editor of Manifold Utland, and has been writing all kinds of poetry for 60 years or so, she certainly has plenty of experience to back up what she says. You shouldn't be so sensitive.
I'd write something but am far too ill right now to feel up to writing, and you aren't taking prewrites, so I won't be joining your competition. However, I hope you have a bang up success with this. -

Frankly I dont believe I was rude. I dont know who that person is and if she has many many years of experience than all the best to her. I just dislike it when people only come into a contest to leave a comment on something they believe to be wrong. I think everyone should be able to have there own opinions unquestioned. I wasn't trying to disrespect her in any way.

As someone else has pointed out I may have sounded disrespectful in my reply and I would like to apologize. I'm sorry if I was rude to you.
