Contest Description
What to Submit?
1 original, poem on the theme of the planet you pick to write about. The poem must have the planet's name as the acrostic word. An example:
Muddied copper color. / Arid and depleted. / Removed of life. / So Sad.
Have fun with it. It does not necessarily have to be a description of the planet as I've done above, in fact, I'd rather it NOT be so direct. Be creative with it.
ONLY acrostic is acceptable.
