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!

does it have to be one of those poems that rymes or can it be one that doesn't?
One ring to rule them all.

Will it be voter based, or judge based?
And can we make multiple submissions?

This is a pickle
Sitting on my small gray plate
I pick it up, crunch
Haikus count right?
I am confused

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")
