Contest Description

What to Submit?

1 original, poem on the theme of End of the line.

Listen to the lyrics of End of the line by Travelling Wilbury's try (key word is try) to write similar lyrics without copying phrases or words. Something original that conveys the same positive upbeat vibe. If you can match your lyrics to the song structure and cadence extra points, your lyric will rank higher, resulting in a higher placement! Come on it's fun!! I know you can write me a beauty!

I know this is Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne of ELO, Roy Orbison, and Tom Petty, so let's not pretend we can better this lyric, just make it fun

Thanks for trying! REMEMBER NO NAMES   DATE AT THE BOTTOM PLEASE!!


Only lyric form is acceptable SONG AND LYRIC IS EMBEDDED IN MY SAMPLE

AS THIS SEEMS TO BE SLOW GOING I'VE MADE IT EASIER, WRITE JUST 2 STANZAS ONE THE VERSE, THE OTHER THE CHORUS. GIVE IT A TRY!
