Poetry contest

Post by Samantha14 »

I absolutely love poetry, and I couldn't think of a good contest to do for Monty's contest winnings, until it hit me: Why not do a poetry contest?

So, dazzle me, peoplez. It can be on anything, any form, any structure, as long as it's poetry. It doesn't even have a word limit. (Well, it has to be at least 20 words, but. :- ) The winner will receive $50.00. (With second prize being 25 and third being 15. :) )

Anyways, with that being said, have fun! \:D/

Will it be voter based, or judge based?

And can we make multiple submissions?

Ok so I just randomly wrote this

This is a pickle
Sitting on my small gray plate
I pick it up, crunch

Haikus count right?

When is the deadline?

Because whenever I write poetry, it always takes awhile...

You can send them via PM, or just post them here. Either way is fine. :)

I haven't decided a deadline yet, but I'll post when it's getting closer to whatever I decide. (IE "ONE WEEK TIL DEADLINE")
