Fleedle's Bjork-Based Poetry Jam
Poetry Contest
Write a poem - any style, any genre - inspired by or similar in theme to the Bjork song 'Bachelorette' (see selected lyrics below). Go crazy (Bjork is a talented lady, but she's nuttier than a schizophrenic squirrel, so let's revel in that!) - free your imagination, and let's see what we can come up with! Sample lyrics from the start and the end of the song (feel free to look up the rest, of course):
I'm a fountain of blood
In the shape of a girl
-----
I'm a tree that grows hearts
One for each that you take
You're the intruder's hand
I'm the branch that you break
The contest winner will win half of the prize pool which is based on the number of entries. The second and third place winners will each share the remaining prize pool.
