Howdy! oh La La! your second contest! This oughta be neato capeato! Ya know what I mean JellyBean? Lol, sorry I'm a bit Slap Happy right now, so you'll have to forgive me for that pointless ramble....
This whole entire contest, like the sub-plots/choices surrounding the topic, reminds me of that movie, "Last Night" but the movie wasn't that good, and I'm hoping these entries will be! Anyway, the movie kind of sucked, but it was such a great idea, so it was really disappointing. Has anyone else seen it? Anyay, is that where you got the idea from? I really think there will be some interesting entries, but I wonder what they'll be like, cause it'll be really hard to avoid being cliche' with this topic, ya know?
As Always,

this was a wonderful idea...i have so many thoughts for this contest but i can't even think to put them into words because my brain is going to fast. i hope you get some amazing entries lots of love -wildchild**
-
i entered but then i thought maybey i would just go on a looting spree.. maybe steal a car i could never afford and go driving grand theft auto style.. maybe ill enter again later..
-
yeah i saw last night i dont remeber the whole thing. i liked the part with that guy who was trying to fulfill all his sexual fantasys i thought that was funny,and then the guy fromt he power company calling everyone saying that "we'll do everything possible to be with you until the end" but thats all i remember.
-
yeah actually it was the gas company, but same thing. and then they killed him in the end, because people wanted to know what it was like to kill someone before they evaporated....
-
Thanks Leanne for the win. I was logged off reading poems when I read your contest and it so caught my attention that I decided to log in and enter. I'm glad I did now... lol
I'll probably use the points to start another challenge
or two myself...
Thanks again...glad you liked it and a good job to all the other
poets who wrote one for this challenge too...
