SotM Event #19: The Undead Poet Society

In honor of Lillian becoming a hero (pure speculation at this point), we are going to have an SotM poetry contest!

 

[quote=Lillain’s Bio]

She began writing dark poetry and allied herself with a group of teenagers that called themselves The Undead Poet Society.

In honor of Lillian, the poem should be dark, and based on anything SotM (characters, setting, etc.)

 

Formatting

Because the forum ruins any sort of formatting, there are going to be some rules.

-Please submit your poem in a Google Doc. If you don’t have access to Google Docs, PM me, and I will set one up for you.

-At the top of the page should be the title of your poem, but not your name.

-You have free reign on the formatting (e.g. location, spacing, size, color, etc.), but, please, no pictures.

-The poem cannot be longer than 1 page.

-The name of your Doc should be: SotM Event #19: (YOUR NAME). This should not be on the page itself.

 

Submitting

-To submit your entry, send me a link with the Doc on it.

-I will copy your entire page into a master Doc for easy reading. I am going to use “select all”, so please make it easy to copy by no having your name on the page.

-After submitting your entry, I will send you a link to view the master Doc.

 

Judging

-I will send the Doc to GtG for judging. Their decision is based on which one they like the best, and what sort of bribes they received.

-Your poem should not have your name attached while judging. Only include it in the name of your Doc.

 

Deadline

-You will have until 3-12 (about three week) to write your poem.

-I will release the Doc to the forum after the deadline (NO CHEATING!)

 

Prize

GtG will perform a dramatic reading of the winning poem and upload it to YouTube.

 

Good luck! Have fun! If you have any questions, please ask.

 

Yay! I can't wait for the judging on this one.

Awesome!

I can't write for toffee, but bad poetry I could have a crack at.

This will be fun.

KNYFE's hair is red.

Omnitrons are blue.

La Capitan would be great

if it didn't have you.

 

Now that’s dark!

Just end the thread now, Ronway has already won.

...

Although, Poetry about Pydro there Ronway? You're a few days late.

Submitted my poem!

Are multiple submissions allowed? I have a few ideas on ways to go with this, and wanted to know if I should be focusing on one.

Focus on one, please.

Can I still submit mine even though I posted it here?

You can submit whatever you want.

But you should submit something!

 

Everyone should submit things!

Let me sing you a song of a lad

Who entered a contest Pydro had

But there's not much judging to do

When the number of entries is two

and isn't that really so sad?

You see two entries

And crown yourself the victor?

Now witness my art!

What I said was that judging was slight

My intent was to not cause a fight

With more entries than one

there will be judging done

But more entries are better, am I right?

Perhaps this exchange

Will draw still more to compete!

Time for more haikus.

The haiku is a very short thing

and while I'm sure that its praises you'll sing

I don't care to express

my ideas in much less

than five lines and two rhymes and a zing.

These poetic quips are just so absurd.

I'm not going to take part in this farse.

I hope you had fun, but this is the last

that you'll see of my resplendent bantor.

 

Good sirs! What words are slung in this forum?

That such provencial rhymes are shared in jest.

I have but one concern that on this day,

Your cards are played, in sooth, far from your vest.
