Ange doesn't respond well to toe tapping before she's had her morning fix
I didn't see Lauren around, so I thought I'd role play.

Ok. We have a total of 20 entries, so there will be 4 polls with 5 poems in each. You may vote for one poem in each poll. You may want to hold your votes until all the polls are posted, so you can read everything before you make your decisions.
Each poem will be identified by its title. If no title was given, the first line will be used as the title. Also, if the entrant submitted a poems or poems as influencing their entry, these will be listed following said poem.
What about multiple submissions? All in one poll? And if the same poems are mentioned??The Poets said:

I would be around, if my 'net would hold for more than 15 seconds at a time!impressive said:I didn't see Lauren around, so I thought I'd role play.
All entries are posted. There were 19, not 20 (one was a do-over ). The semifinals will be open for voting for 7 days. As in previous contests, poems with the most votes will go on to a finals round open to voting only by the finalists who will 1) vote by pm to The Poets and 2) not be permitted to vote for their own poem.
If you have any questions, send them to The Poets.

Yep, that was my thought--I've never seen such an excellent group of contest entries. They're really good. smithpeter always was terrific at inspiring inspired poetry imo.

Not me, and certainly not Angeline, but I guess you can do it, providing you promise not to peek at The Poets' Inbox.WickedEve said:

I've never had such a hard time deciding and -- even now - I'm not sure.
Is there a list of the participating poets any where? It's always fun trying to put a name to the poem.
