What to Submit?
A poem about you- but you do not have to get too personal, or even untruthful, unless you want to, you can make it funny, whimsical, silly, so deep and dark, just have some fun writing it.
Using the Bio form -- you can go to Types of Poems and read how to write a Bio poem, then throw that away for another day because we are going to modify it, for this contest.
First, you need to think up two words to describe you. YOU CANNOT USE YOUR REAL NAME OR YOUR USER NAME ie I used Melancholy Writer in my example poem because I do tend to write melancholy.
