Haiku: This will be in the classic 5-7-5 syllable structure.

Rictameter:
2
4
6
8
6
4
2

This is a very strict structure. Each number represents the number of syllables in a row.

Open form: This is your chance to be creative with structure. Howver the topic of the poem will be selected by me.

Sonnet: Rhyming structure:
A
B
A
B
C
D
C
D
E
F
E
F

G
G

This is a shakespearean sonnet, but I am not judging on iambic pentameter, but you MUST have 14 syllables in each line.

After we complete these contests I'll pick subjects in free form again, since a lot of people tend to excell in that area. When this takes place we'll vote on the subject.

Open form it is. Okay, I need judges, I'd like at least one other person. PM me if you're interested.

This will be judged similarly to the story competition.

Each Category will be worth then and then added to a final score.

Creativity/Originality
Structure
Rhythm
Impact

If there are any questions post them here.

Actually yes. I'll accept poems for a month in open form. This'll give me enough time to talk to Elara and MisturMoogle, who will be the judges, about criteria. In the mean time before I post criteria if anyone planing on entering could drop a line here, or PM me that would be great.
