Three weeks after I posted this thread

Our entries go here? Or do we send them to you birdbrain?

Either one is fine

Remember, you guys:
If you shake it more than twice,
It's masturbation.

I'm sorry couldn't help myself

Oh and a very happy b-day to you sir, in look forward to mowing you better in the future

Lol I'm continuously making innuendos

July 17th I believe is three weeks after the 26th (original posting)

Get those entries in folks, looking forward to reading them

I am a freind of the night,
death is my relative, but I lack his bite,
when I am with you, you are at peace,
when you are without me, your forehead is creased,
when I am troubled, you may feel the same,
when I am peaceful, your body is lame,
when you are tired, I call your name,
when you are rested, I retreat once again,
I may be vivid, full of colors and dreams,
but mostly, I am a black void, without seams,
my name is sleep, and though I am strange,
how much stranger would you be, if I did not caress your brain.
 
(is it any good?)

Makes you think or at least it made me think up until the reveal that it was sleep

thanks! I wrote this while I could not sleep ,_,

My entry:

I see you there
Standing
Waiting
Ever so graceful
Beautiful
Vibrant
Full of life
Compassionate
Loving
Be my wife
Tender
Gentle
One of a kind
Laughter
Brightness
I'm missing you
Anger
Dispair
Where'd you go
Death
Finality
I'll see you there soon.

Can we enter multiple times?

Just wanted to make a quick note for legality's sake.

We forgot to mention plagiarism. I don't anticipate this being a problem, but because there are real prizes involved, I thought I should state that plagiarism is 100% unacceptable. By submitting an entry, you are declaring that your piece is your own work.

This was not brought on by anything, so if you submitted already, don't worry, I'm not accusing anyone And like I said, I don't expect it to be a problem, y'all are no dummies! it's simply a legal necessity that popped into my head.

Happy writing, everyone! I'm getting pretty excited to start reading what everyone has come up with!
