This round I had the help of a guest judge and a newcomer to the team of Poetry-Book.

The guest judge is one of my best friends who writes frequently and eloquently.

The other judge you've already met.

ALSO WE ARE ONLY ELIMINATING FOUR THIS WEEK AND THEN THREE NEXT ROUND. THIS WILL LEAVE US WITH A TOP THREE.

Prizes



Looking for People to Donate PrizesHey everyone, as you read above I'm after some
prize donations.
"For what?" you may ask, it's for :iconpoetry-book:, my beloved poetry group! You see, there's this lovely, huge, awesome, fantastic, AMAZING contest that's going to be released on the 20th called
"Scratch That"
. The contest is actually, kinda... HUGE (as I said above), with 10 rounds, and each of them need prizes to keep the people that enter it to keep powering through it, (especially since that each round lasts for 2 weeks, and that means the contest is going to last up to 5 months! [long project is long])
So what I'm after are some awesome people to donate prizes, like features, a couple points, requests of any kind, or any other awesome things you can think of.
This contest is open to all, you don't have to be a member to participate... And since all prize donators will be featured on each journal entry about the contest (up to 12 journals!) that means you guys get exposure, and if y

FEATURED FORMER CONTESTANT


The wonderful :icondjvolli: wrote a poem for the prompt and it was good so I figured I would feature it here.

Thief TheaterMidnight’s massive murky maze
Conceals castles, corridors and columns
People; plundered, pillaged and praying
Scream for sacrifices, symbols, safety.
Lords lurch liquescent-tine toward loud
Calls calmly kept in
Dungeons; dragging, drowning; dangerous
Men that made the massive murky maze
Their theater


Congratulations to everyone. Next round will be up in a few days!
