Alright, we have 20 poets ready to compete in RANDOM POEMS [2] De POWER [Opium] THREE! The poets have been divided into four groups of five and the [anonymous] judges have been finalised.
Challenge No.1 and the groups will be posted on this thread in less than 24 hours from the time of this post.
I'll post the details for the comp prior to announcing the challenge, so everyone can get a handle how the comp will work.
The uncomplicated version is each individual group is set a challenge, each poet must write a poem within the given timeframe, incorporating 3 key factors set for each challenge.
