Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing great.
I recently hosted a contest by the name of "a broken person" and I am disappointed to see that most of the poems aren't according to the instructions I mentioned which can result in immediate disqualification.
So before judging it, I am giving everyone one week to make corrections to their poem if it doesn't follow the following instructions.
1)it must be of a personal nature. I believe I made it clear in the instructions but I have seen a lot of poems which are of talking in a general sense
2) it must be about a broken dream. The dream is not important but reading the poem I should at least get a sense that you desired something and you weren't able to achieve it. So your poem must describe those feelings
For some reasons, many poems weren't even close to the contest topic. In fact when I moved to round 2, I had to eliminate 12 poems simply because either they didn't follow instructions or weren't on topic of the contest
So, this message is for everyone, if your poem is missing these components, you have 1 week to edit it. This is also for those who messaged earlier saying that their poems were disqualified because they were not on topic. I will re read all the poems on next weekend and will then place them accordingly.
