Poetry Contest Description
Each line is only One word. Take letters from that word to form the next line...and on and on. This is the Landfill of the Free and all, but if it were up to me, I`d prefer it wasnt a littany of expletives.

word for it. By all means inform me : > )

I`d like to thank everyone for participating in my first "contest". Truth be told, I consider these threads wonderful
brain-sharpening excercises. ALL contributors desrve a pretty little Prize Icon simply for pouring their brains INTO
their monitors, rather than having their smarts drained out by just staring at them. Each and every one of Us came up with a 1st class work. We are all "Winners".
I`m not sure what this Genre of Poetry is, but I do realize that its minimalist, dense, and so thin-margined that it completely levels the playing field. EVERYONE went from point A to point B with fascinating, stylized aplomb.
I ultimately gave the award to Fred r Kane because his poem was super-Dense and enthusiastically Positive! Except for the "positive" part - it reminded me of the incredibly dense musical pieces of Webern. Props to SupHomeboi - your piece was muscular, with a surprise exclamation point of an ending. Danii -- You took us through an entire arc of a relationship in 23 words - Wow. I confess -- I didnt enjoy "awarding" cause, hey, who am I to judge? Thank you ALL for pulling me deeper underground.
