Poetry Contest

Write like any other poet on DUP
This should be good fun. Come on down and chose a DUP poet that is in contrast with your own style and subject matter and write like them. No hate speech or disrespect targeting your chosen will be acceptable. Let's show our fellow poets some love and respect while we try to steal what makes them a poet.

Please be sure to reference the poet you are imitating
One entry per, please. Choose wisely

Tastes like Adagio

“The devil never sipped on molasses…” Like a humbled pumice, the apparitions with “mottled plumage” hung over the ocean like paradise. A riddle of nectar stained the designer of vile breeding words with the collector of quips as the hourglass clung to the nether.

Winter's Prose

In autumn's glow, the world begins to rest  
And amber leaves descend in weathered flight  
The summer's heat now finds a gentler quest  
As chilly winds chase the lingering light  
 
The trees, donning their robes of ember gold  
Stand sentinel against the waning sun  
Their branches reach with tales of seasons old  
While shadows stretch as days are nearly done  
 
The air is crisp, a breath of frost and pine  
As harvests yield their bounty to the earth  
The twilight hours in muted hues align  
And nightfall's calm descends with tranquil mirth  
 
In autumn’s arms, we find a soft repose  
A fleeting peace before the winter's prose

Hades: I have noted the poets in my author's note; however, are we to post them here too? Also, is there a limit on entries?


Good point. Thanks. I will amend the rules

Thanks for clarifying, Hades. I'll edit mine to reflect the imitated poets.

I thought your PoetSpeak poem was really cool as well as accurate! I hope he won't mind me saying that, lol. 🤣
