Amuse and Bemuse me

Simple contest!


It doesn't have to be long, or fabulous, or even all that funny.

That's it! Enter away! No limits on length or topic, no annoying "put this in your author's notes," no "if you like Kenny G, tell me why!"

THE VERY FEW RULES
1. If you didn't figure it out, no sad/emo/dumbvampireCullenknockoff poems.
2. No dumb vampire knockoff poems.
3. No dumb vampire knockoff poems.


Have fun! Pre-writes are good, you can enter TWO poems if you have a pair that are both equally worthy and you just can't pick, although I'm too lazy to DQ you if you enter three times. If you use 'weasel' or 'booger' I will love you, but no extra points awarded. Just love.

Contest is Over

    Thanks to everyone for entering, but especially to the authors who followed the contest and amused me. If you've got the time, go read the winners' stories; they were HIGH-LARIOUS. But everybody else was good, too! So no long faces.
