Power of Poetry-Propelling a Paradigm Shift

Blog Posted:11/4/2013 3:32:00 AM
Dear Soupers,

“Power of Poetry – Propelling a Paradigm shift” if this could be the theme for Poetry Soup’s Poetry month then I believe the entire community would celebrate this fest. This could be the best way to appreciate the vitality and diversity of voices reflected in this community which would open ways for poets to sustain their perfection in imagery and class. All poets can vote for the poets they most wanted and the top 30 poets can feature their unpublished poems one poet/one poem a day (30poets/30days).They can have their favorite subject for each day like “breeze” and conduct a contest on that day. Some may feel this initiative will trivialize the grace of the Poetry but it is not really so in fact such a fest would retain the poet’s identity and style and propel them not to lack in spirit and worth. By the end all can nominate their favorite poet. And finally “Favorite Poet of Soup” can be judged based on votes. This could go as a dream or materialize. All in the hands of the pillars of Soup. I believe this dream of mine will come true.

I think, if your idea came to fruition, that it would simply be a "popularity" contest and not based on the merits or abilities of any single poet. Everyone already knows who the "popular kids" are, so the rest of us wouldn't have a chance in hell of competing. I can't say I'm really in favor of your idea; sorry :(

My friend Just,I always stay positive about the intended purpose.but it is not fair for "The Just" to be a pessimist.Anyway Debbie also points out we have a good system in place.By some way if the system shapes up every one will be happy.(: ) Jenish.

I believe we already have this, we can easily see who is the most popular poet on the site and we can also see who by the judges has been declared the best contest contributing poet. Also Soup does publish on the front page Premium poets works which we have now been given the opportunity to pick for ourselves.
