Contest Description

What to Submit?

This time, the only form I am accepting is a PANTOUM. This form is similar to a villanelle and just as tricky to write.

So, you should have no more than 16 lines, or four stanzas with a rhyme pattern as indicated below, with each letter indicating not only end rhyme, but the same phrase needs to be repeated. (three stanzas is also fine, but I'll give preference to the ones with 16 lines)

ABAB

BCBC

CDCD

DADA 

If you need an example, I posted one i wrote recently titled, "He Lingers" take a look at it if you'd like :)

OH, no names please. 

Good luck, y'all! Start rhyming :D

Prizes

First-Tenth Place, 1-3 Honorable mentions

Submit one copy of your poem online. Format your poem. Please make your entry easy to read — no illustrations or fancy fonts.
