Okay, so now I would like you to try a new approach when it comes to these contest things. I'm not going to give you a list of questions, I'm not going to tell you to read this poem by someone I love and tell me what you think, I'm not going to place down a ton of prompts and then have you write directly from those, I'm not going to accept prewrites like is generally my habit, I'm not goint to have you read my poems and analyze my hidden meanings or critique them for me...
I want you to analyze yourself.
Now, I told you, this is a new approach. No, I don't want a self-reflective piece from you sitting there, swirling your thoughts about your head about what makes you you. This is what I want you to do:
Go back in your AP history to the beginning, back to those first few poems you wrote when you just hopped onto this site and discovered the poet that had been hiding for so long, and I want you to read every one of them. Okay, that's a little drastic, but I want you to read as many as you can physically stand and then come back to me with a new piece that's reflective on what you read and what you now see, be it about you or your writing or even me however that came around- I just want whatever is in your head when you glance into that bit of your past, but make me truly see it like it was my own thoughts...
Make it good people. Life's legit, do your part to make it epic.
