Blips right, this was a pretty sweet group of poems.
I voted for Parasite and self/erode. I like the brevity/concise nature of those two. In particular with Preves I liked the main poem in comparison with the v1 (v1 is the better version in my opinion) Good quality stuff all around.

Thank you for the kind words. My style though, varies a bit. Most of it can be considered lyrical poetry or elegies. I am mostly active during the darker parts of the year as darkness is my muse (so to say). I have to say that I love this place because there is quite a lot of vararity in writing styles, making it an enjoyment and not a chore to actually read and evaulate the other poems.

The edit means it can be read forwards and backwards [that was why I did some things in it].
Crucible, you get a honorable mention. Couldn't really choose so just went with the most immediately appealingish to me now and there were ... three. blah. if only i had three votes.

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
I was kinda happy with how my poem turned out, but I got straight trounced by the other submissions. Good stuff all
Now we just gotta find a new host...
Way ahead of you. I'd like everyone to welcome Crusible as your new PRC host! I'd also like to thank Guilan for taking up the mantle for us when he was able to.
As for my votes in this very strong week of poems, I picked Blippy's and Crusible's. Another Fragmentary Thought really spoke to me clearly about one of the core desires one can have when making any sort of art, really. It isn't a primary motivation for me, but it was very well-expressed. dribble cup was my prison name had great execution and was quite fun to read.
A note for Crusible, I was careless when making this thread so the deadline for voting extends further than it ought to. If we have enough poems to fire the next PRC on Monday, you should probably fire it anyways and we'll just have two going at once for a short while. It won't really impact anything.
Hey guys, just wanna say really sorry for forgetting to vote this round. I just forgot I submitted because I got swamped with work. (This is the second time this has happened of all the times I've submitted, promise I won't forget to vote next time.)

I think this is the first time I've read anything by Chiligyro, and I must say, it was very enjoyable. Love the style.
