New Contest Starting Tues April 27th

I'd like to suggest a new contest... KING OF THE HILL... A no holds barred cage match to the death. 3 poets will compete, where only the winner moves on. The King or Queen will then need to supply a new poem each round to battle two new competitors. (A new round will begin every Tues and Fri.) They will stay the king or queen until they are knocked out and a new ruler takes the hill.

OK future Kings and Queens, gather your armies... Prepare to battle. This contest will be decided on how well you can muster the troops. Get out there and get friends to vote. ( only one vote per person, and the poet can't vote for their poem )

If you are interested, Send me a message and let's get started.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
