As The Shadow in Blue makes up his ways to challenge poets, i have decided to make up mine. im holding a contest to see who is the most effective poet.

im holding a contest here to see who has the best poem on philosophy. the contest closes this friday
and i will be determining which people will move on the second round, simply copy and paste your poems on this thread and hope for the best. Good Luck!

P.S.

ROUND 1: 5 possible winners

ROUND 2: 2 possible winners

ROUND 3: the champion shall arise


I will also find different topics for you people to write the poem about after the previous round finishes. Good Luck and Have Fun!

(ahem)Gee...I hope I'm not too late.

Amongst The Dead

Imprisoned as a captive thought
dreams lay in hopes tomorrow.
Morning's fragrance sweet and clean,
though moist with tears of sorrow.
Should in passing would we meet,
inclining to be gracious,
much more each one of us could see
how strong our love has made us.
Without your touching gift for word,
my pen lays uninspired.
Ghostly figures impressed in pulp,
tell of spent desires.
Like scattered leaves in tortured breezes
so my poetry has fled.
All the memories, once so vibrant,
lay still now, amongst the dead.

...just bein' Bluesy

So...all the wells are dry...eh? Look, I got here as fast as I could! You wouldn't believe the number of pot, pans, and other kitchen paraphernalia that needed washing. I thought it would never end!

So like, where were we?

...just bein' Bluesy
