Round One: Prewrites Only

this picture has absolutely nothing to do with the contest :]




This is round one of this contest. For this round please enter your best prewrite.

Only one rule: no erotica.

Enter whatever you want, any style, topic, ANYTHING! As long as it's a prewrite.

The people that make the finalists will go to the next round. I will keep this contest open until there are 50 entries. 20 people will move on.

For ideas of future rounds:

There will probably be 3 of them
One will be rhyme only
One will be free verse only
I don't know about the last round yet...

PS: I'm not going to add finalists until I get more entries =D

I may take a while to comment on poems! Thanks for all the entries!
