Usual rules apply. I'm about to post Devoted Walnut's poem, once Define Infinity has posted his the voting can start, and will end midnight 29th May. May the best poem win!

I'm Just a fucked up duck.
Without even 1 buck.
I went up to a chicken and he didn't even cluck.
I got hit by a transport truck.
My momma said I suck.
I ain't got no luck.
I'm just a fucked up duck...

Apologies for voting early, but I vote for Define Infinity, whatever he posts, and even if he doesn't post anything :)

So according to my Canadian time, Define Infinity has 4 hours to post his poem. He's probably scared because of the awesomeness of my poem.

He'd better get his act together, else Mr Walnut goes through. I hesitate to call it 'wins'. :)

Actually, the official amount of time he has to post is up, we're into voting time now. I'll give him until the end of that, anyone got a contact email address for DI?

If I win, then that means I have to write a new poem. Which will be hard for me. But I will try.

Sufferance

As I flew through the forests of the unholy the spirits spoke to me through ethereal winds.
I saw a leaf of deep green...
...A green of deception,
...A greed for knowledge,
...A temptation of humanity and absolute ignorance as I drowned into the ocean of nothingness and demise.
vividness and bleakness collapsed on the point ov death...

...As the gates of eternity opened, the Prometheus of soul wondered on the road to perdition and wisdom...

...the layers of sufferance turned to ashes as the essence will be immortality.


I do appologize as my memory did not carry on with me, for this I am late.

Well, having read both I'm sorry to say it, Devoted, but I'm going to have to vote for Define Infinity.

If the people who voted before DI's went up could do so again, just to make things perfectly legal and shipshape?

I'm gonna give Walnut a vote. I like neither's efforts, but the difference is that Walnut didn't try to make an effort :lol:

Walnut. I've never been too fond of free verse.

Walnut, only because i strongly dislike pointless points of elipses (sp) , words used in poor context, poor grammar, and spelling ' of ' with a V.

Voting time is up! Time for vote counting (going from after DI posted his poem only, since that's when voting began):

DevotedWalnut received 5 votes.
Define Infinity receveived 2 votes.

Noting briefly that even if the votes before counted, DW would still have won, it's my sad duty to pronounce DevotedWalnut the winner of this match!
