CONTEST [ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK]

I've been wanting to hold a contest for a while. so i am . lol. i am not on often for long amounts of time though so it will be a difficult and long lasting one.

RULES:
1. New- duh.
2. Minimal Swearing- if it does, just send me the link
3. CAN'T be religious. i'm not so it'd go against you anyways
4. Try. but have fun too. it shows. =]
5. Please dont make them 2000 lines long. =[
6. Can be a POEM or LYRICS i like both. =]

This is like a titled contest. Only without titles. lol.

Pick a genre below and write a poem in that genre. woot not hard is it? but it is! you must use a line of one of the songs listed below in your poem. don't know the song? google the lyrics if need be. =]

There will be 5 spots per genre/category and you may each use whichever song lyric you want. reserve which genre/category you want. there will also be an 'other' category. this is for you who may have come to late to reserve.. or can't fit into the genre..

Prizes
Each genre will have one winner- like the best in breed in a dog show. the winner will not get any extra special comments or anything. lol. but they will have the chance to enter round two. =].

All who enter will recieve 1 comment on either their entry.. or another poem if they desire.

I will make a new thread for round two when it comes up.

The dead line will be.. i don't know yet. this will be a long lasting contest because i can't come on often. so it will basicly end when all the entries are in. =]

Genres:
- haha i fooled you. these aren't genres!!! they're basicly lines from a poem you haven't written.
Yup you got it! you have to have these lines in your poem too. =]
---- i will accept slightly altered lines. same with the lyrics. but you have to ask first. okay?

Ok in summary:
you pick a category/genre and use the line in the poem which you will write. also you will use a line from one of the songs i also listed.

Easy eh?

To reserve- simply say you want to reserve and which line you want to use. =]

Songs are up! yay So its open!!!!

-that means enter-

Do you have to write ABOUT the song? Or can you make a new peom up completely different from the lyrics?

If it can be different, I want 'Ghost? Hunny, I'm your vampire.'

xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex

Yea it can be about anything. .. although. many do have to do with vampires and ghosts and stuff. lol

Uh duh. ;]

I'll take it, then.

xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex.

wow. you posted the same second basicly.. lol

That's crazy. oO

xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex

Pst. Enter. =]

my ear itches.. hrm you should enter. =]

enter.

RAWR

umm what song is You told me you loved me then I shot you from...

i cant find it in any of the songs u listed

the 'category' isn't from the song (any song) its just a line i made up. you have to use that(whichever you choose) AND a line from one of the songs(or in OTHER 2 lines from 2 diff. songs.)

Hope that clears it up. if not just ask. =]

oh nvm

Alrighty,

So does anyone want to reserve.. i don't want to have to close this contest... =[

NOOOOOOOO
DON"T CLOSE IT!!!!!!!!!!!
[Cries]

NOOOO!!
IT MUST GO ON!
Just keep it open..I'm sure you'll get more of a response.

I bet it's because there's so much to read...

xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex

i'll keep it open till the 10th if no one else responds. =[

SOME ONE ENTER!

enter....but can u please explain firther cuz i don't really get it....i knowe have to use a line from a song listed below.....but wast's the top one that says other titles? srry...

^^ oh wait i get it now...so we use the line and use a line from another song that u've listed as the titles or use 2 other songs and get 2 dif. lines...right?

u told me u loved me but then u shot me....i'll take it pweese

can it be lyrics too or have to be a poem?

heheheh, im up for it, from ur club too buddy
hmmmz, just gimme some time to make somefin up thanx a bunch

either is fine miss killer. =]

Miss killer- you do not use the song title as the title. you read through the lyrics of the song and use a line from the song IN your poem. along with the line from the category you chose. (in your case you told me you loved me then you shot me) then you go through and read the lyrics and pick a line you also want to use. =]

i mean you CAN use the song title as the title,. or the line or anything. that doesn't matter.

Whitey- Right now i'll put you under OTHER.. If you want a specific line jus tell me and i'll switch ya over. =]

(if you stay under other remember you have to use two lines from two songs(one form each)

Well Keep those Reserves Coming Lol.

And I"m Doing another Contest as well in case this one Does Flop.

(the Different and Cool Contest w/ 8 spots)

=]

Ghost? Hunny, I'm Your Vampire. {Terzanelle}

Ghost? Hunny, I'm your vampire,
With sweet surrender and biting kiss,
Ghost? Hunny, I'm your vampire.

Look into my eyes, an endless abyss,
A fire thriving in thine eyes?
With a sweet surrender and biting kiss.

Hunny, do you see me, I'm your lie,
I have so many lies I have to tell
A fire thriving in thine eyes?

Smile broadly and you'll do well,
In these dusty halls of Hell,
I have so many lies I have to tell.

Seduce you with my dark beauty to sell,
Ghost? Hunny, I'm your vampire,
In these dusty halls of Hell.

Heat; full of a one time desire,
Ghost? Hunny, I'm your vampire,
What you lack, is what I desire.
Ghost? Hunny, I'm your vampire,

The Terzanelle is a poetry type which is a combination of the villanelle and the
terza rima forms. It is a 19-line poem consisting of five interlocking triplets/tercets
plus a concluding quatrain in which the first and third lines of the first triplet appear
as refrains. The middle line of each triplet is repeated, reappearing as the last line
of the succeeding triplet with the exception of the center line of the next-to-the-last
stanza which appears in the quatrain. The rhyme and refrain scheme for the triplets
is as follows:

1. A
2. B
3. A

4. b
5. C
6. B

7. c
8. D
9. C

10. d
11. E
