Susan Gentry Poet Couplet

We Don'T Need No Stinking Contests - Wrong

If we never want to...
experience poetry forms new

Or... read how other poets
on the same theme do it

As well as... meet a deadline
with a poem ready on time

Or maybe... show capability
of your rule readability

And... no need to discern
new words to learn

If any of these are so...
then PS should know...

No more would indeed be best...
We don't need no stinking contests!

Mystic Rose Rose August 15, 2018 at 5:31 AM Contests are not for everyone. Some rather just write what they want and when they want, That is fine too. Others need to incentive, that is fine too.

Jan Allison August 15, 2018 at 2:50 AM Bravo Susan very well said I LOVE your take on the contest theme. If you read the blogs the ones who 'do down' the contests rarely even enter them and just try to spoil it for those who do enjoy the challenges set:-( hugs jan xx Susan Gentry August 15, 2018 at 9:11 PM Thanks, Jan. Strange thinking these days, isn't it? Hugs...
