25.1 Me

My hobby
is not speed poetry -
I don't think
I'll ever log in
to PnQ again.

25.2 Username

Thank you to Narph
for her compliments,
and maybe some day
I will repay them
but I can't go over
this amount of lines

25.3 War

This is the most
epic war
of all time.

25.4 Money/Sport

My fingers feel
as though they've been
involved in a sport
all evening -
my fingers furiously
typing -
I may get carpal tunnel.

She drinks Mountain Dew
dipping her toes
in the morning dew.

I watch her oval face
squishy, pink, and soft
and I cannot wait
to bite her cheeks.

Bulls calls
to their cows
in the rut,
ramming horns
on bark.

25.8 Double Form

I wish I knew of
a better form than these poems
I'm doing the same

damn thing every time
but what else can you do now
when timing is right.

26.1 Me

I'm worried
I have a competitive
condition,
one there is
no cure for.

I wish
the Queen was here
to help us
save the day.

I am the lone soldier
awaiting my crew
to find their
alarm clocks.

How much money
does twitter receive
for each hash tag
posted?

I'd love to be drinking
a sip of my tea
on the beach -
dunking my toes
in the sand.

26.6 1 color/shape

I am not a liar,
though I must say
this gray rectangle
on my lap
is so warm,
I want to go to bed.

26.7 Nature

Acorns drop
from the top of trees
and I watch a squirrel
run rampantly
to it.

26.8 Double Form

Well what do you know
I'm recycling dirty laundry
and stealing lines from

my other club mates -
but it's not plagiarizing
it'll help us win.

27.1 Me

Please check me into
an intervention -
for I am creeping on
ten rounds
all by myself tonight.

27.2 Username

Narph has me
pegged in ways
no one else does -
who else knows
my love
for veggies?

27.3 War

These war games
have me checking
TC's thread to
get ideas for rebuttal -
oh, dear.

27.4 Money/Sport

I wish to fill my
pockets, with money,
not words,
and be quicker to listen.

twenty-seven rounds
in just this set
of prompts,
and to think
we planned to double
our efforts.

My see-through
contact lenses
look like a dome -
shaped around
my eyeball,
currently uncomfortably.

27.7 Nature

The only nature
I can think of
currently exists of
trees, sand, flowers and grass -
I must expand
my horizons.

27.8 2Form

I wish to write an
acrostic, but don't want to
do it in double

that's too much effort
that I'm not willing to do
probably ever.

28.1 Me

I'm blinking every half second
wondering if my eyes
will stop blurring,
but this computer screen
is killing me.

I wish Narph
could understand
I can't stop posting
until she
goes to bed.

28.3 War

War,
ha, huh
what is it good for?
are funny lyrics
to a stupid song.

Watching reality tv
saddens me,
they fight, they lie,
they cheat and steal
all for money
blown on drugs.

28.5 Wildcard

Fields of green
look so inviting
topped with
cilantro and tomatoes -
my favorite salad.

28.6 1 color/shape

I'm taking the time
to learn my shapes,
like heptagon
that has too many sides
for my secretly blonde self
to count.

28.7 Nature

Frogs leap
from lily pad
to lily pad
stretching their tongue
to the nearest fly.

28.8 Double Form

Is there going to be
awards for this darn contest -
like winner of the

in the entire face of
this entire world.

29.1 ME

Work is coming
much sooner than
I realize,
and I must lay
my sleepy head
on my pillow.

29.2 Username

Unfortunately for Narph
my OCD kicked in,
and I cannot leave
when rounds are not
at an even number.

29.3 War

How easily we
discount the affects
of war, by making
it into a simple
card game.

Pre-season
has begun, and my home
will now be filled
with football
for the next six months!

29.5 Wild Card

My mouse is sticking
on it's pad,
and I know the rest
of my house is just
as tired as I am.

I live
in a brown rectangular home,
with glittery stucco
plastered along
the exterior.

29.7 Nature

Ducks quacking,
peddling,
in the swampy pond,
and I've just learned
you should not
feed them bread.
