I will give you a Single Word prompt and you will write a poem in any form based on that single word, whether it is a noun, adjective, or verb - represents a thing, a thought, an action or something more abstract
All entries are due by Saturday Evening at 9E/8CT. Winners will be announced by the following Monday. Please tag your entries Poetry Please Single Word Challenge, or just Single Word Challenge in either the title or tags. (We may want to add more challenges later on) Anything other than freeverse is to be labeled. Lines are limited to 36. The word itself does not have to be used so long as the idea is clearly represented. I f you write in a structured form, you must follow the rules of that structure. Providing a link to the accepted rules/conventions would be appreciated. A first, second and third place place poem will be chosen with overall points being taken off for 1) lack of adherence to the prompt 2) lack of adherence to poetry form chosen and 3) going over line limits. The top three will be featured for the week. Group Stats
