This isn't about you and your loud mouth,
This is about me and my fucking beard.

John: I had an amazing idea.
Siobhan: tell me about it!
John: A psuedo-contest.
John: We can basically do it anywhere.
John: We'll call it 24 or something.
John: Basically, your job is to write 24 poems in 24 hours. You can begin whenever, the timer starts after you post your first poem.
John: You don't have to do them one every hour or anything like that, but you can't post every poem in your first post.
John: You can only post one in your first post.
John: When you finish, people will comment on them, noticing patterns in your writing, strengths, weaknesses, and vote on their favorite.
John: It's just a writing exercise with a healthy amount of constructive criticism afterwards.
Siobhan: thats a really good idea
Siobhan: maybe you should like
Siobhan: start an lj community for that or something!
Siobhan: if people want to join in
Siobhan: they can post their first one or whatever in their topic and then they have to comment with the other 23
Siobhan: and people can reply to them and stuff
Siobhan: you just gotta get some people that say they'll do it
Siobhan: and start the lj comm up
Siobhan: and invite people
Siobhan: and maybe people will just all come and doi t!


That being said, who would be interested?

I'll write 24 Haikus.

It's rather clear and obvious that nobody else will post in this thread before I'm banned, so I'll have to ignore your little "No posting them all in the first thread" rule.

I promise that every one of these was written by me, in this window.

1 Cherry Blossoms bud
While the showers rain on me
The First day of spring

2 April showers fall
Making may flowers full bloom
Sunlight warms the air

3 Life's new Begining
Warm breezes, love in the air
Cute baby birds chirp

4 Springtime is the best
So bright, so beautiful
but it's raining hard

5 A flood covers us
Washing away my springtime
Rain rain go away

6 Please end this season
I can't take anymore rain
There, the sun comes out

7 It's summer time now
Finally the rain meets end
The sunlight shines through

8 Warming up again
It's Time to go to the beach
Surfing is the best

9. Just windy enough
I'll go fly a kite today
Through the sky so blue

10. Really hot today
I'll just soak in a tub then
I can beat the heat

11. The wind has kicked up
Rain started again as well
The hell's going on?

12. It's a hurricane
First summer heat, and now this?
Please take it away...

13. Made it out alive
Just enough leaves on the trees
To enjoy autumn

14. Brisk sweater weather
Beautiful golden brown hues
Season I adore

15. Leaves fall all around
I dance in gold and red snow
Crunching sounds below

16. My Mom makes me work
To rake up the leaves I love
Obscuring nature

17. A masterpiece gone
Reduced to a pile of leaves
Still pretty somehow

18. A breeze blows away
All the work I'd done today
But with it, comes white

19. My tongue catches flakes
Tasteless white crystals of ice
That seem so tasty

20. The white snow field
Like a canvas to paint on
Kids sculpt snow figures

21. Cars travel on black
They go faster than I do
But sleds feel faster

22. It's winter's climax
Lovely time of great giving
Family all here

23. Too cold to go out
But I don't care in the least
Cocoa for the win

24. The coldest season
Has Christmas and Valentines
Ice makes cold hearts melt
Elara

Divine Mamkute
Dark Elf Goddess
Chaos Imp
Penguins Fan

Ms. Invisable

It is an interesting concept... but honestly I think you should finish the story competition before you start up a new one.

I MIGHT be interested in doing this, but I'm not really sure, since I'm not all that great at poetry.

Still though, finish the story contest first!
