This week, we got some unbelievable works. I believe my votes will show which poems I am talking about. These two poems stood out as one of the best, if not the best ones I've read for a while.
Vote for the poem(s) you feel is the best (up to two). Remember to adhere to the "Honor Code" when voting.
While it is understood there is no absolute means to monitor the intent of a vote, we ask each PRC participant to exercise integrity when voting out of respect for the contest:
- Please give each poetry submission an equal opportunity in attaining your vote.
- Please read, or at least skim, all the entries before voting.
- Please do not vote for your friends just because they're your friends.
The Poetry Running Contest puts good faith in its participants to act in an honorable manner.
Contestants, remember, you are required required to vote (and you can't vote for yourself)!
I voted for Blippy after some thought. None of the poems really moved me, but Blippy's has this really clever turn of phrase:
Mr. Happy tumesces
Imagination guesses
Dirty old man dreams
Moans, sighs, and screams
Private Mod Note

Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
my mouth is full of winsome lies -
and eyes are full of death besides
but luckily the soul is wise -
it sees beyond my blindness and
forced failure makes a better guise,
so as i come again alive,
it feels like life's a decent plan

With only 5 entries, I voted for just one, but I also really liked Charade by Chilly
