Are You Really a Poet?
Poetry Contest
This is a prompt to test your abilities. No more puppy dogs and sunsets.
We know that a real poet can write about anything.
Think of something "not poetic" and write. It can be a stapler or a mailbox, just something specific and something you never thought a poem could be written about.
You can expand upon it but keep the poem focused on the object.
All styles welcomed.
So, are you really a poet?
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. The prize pool is currently 100.00 member dollars. There are only -2 spots still open. If all open spots are used the prize pool will be 90.00 member dollars. In this contest at least 2 submissions must be made for the vote to begin.
Deadline: Contest is closed. Deadline was Monday, September 21, 2015.
