Poetry contest

All I want is poetry. I don't care what Kind of poetry, just poetry.
IT can be love poetry,
Dark poetry,
Hate poetry,
Abstract Poetry,
Pain,
Tears,
Sadness,
YOU name it.

I'll read all, and any enteries.

PLease try to keep it between 100 - 1000 words. IT can be a little over the maximum, but I will not tolerate for under the minimum.

I love poetry, and I am very picky with it. So if yours doesnt satisfy me... you are obviously not winning any trophy's.

Now, as for the rules ( Deal with it )

NO STICKY CAPS.

No TyPiNg LiKe DiS. Everybody hates it, i'm sure.

Swearings fine. I don't mind at all.

No Type of Erotica. I am under age.

No Happy go lucky poems. Sorry, that is one type of poetry I do not like to read.

No saying mean things about others poetry.

I will try my best to comment on all entries,

And besides that,

Have fun

  • Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 5 people
  • Final notes:
    This was the hardest to judge ever! I could not decide, and it was soooo difficult! But, after a whole day of debating, I finally figured out who should win and all that stuff.
    I loved all the entries! Every poem was brilliant. You are all amazing poets! I will make another poetry contest soon, and I hope to see some of the same poems in the next one!
