poetry contest

[stillgrowin']

<font color=navy>If you guys are interested, there is a monthly poetry contest at poetry.com. You don't even have to copyright your stuff because when you submit your work, you can view it on their site and it is copyrighted. You can submit as many poems as you want, but only one poem is eligible for the contest per month. The only rule that sucks is that your poem can't be longer than 20 lines. I submitted my poem "detached" in April and I got a letter a couple of days ago saying that my poem is a certified semi-finalist. I think there are many semi-finalists. There is one grand prize, over 50 spots for silver, and another 50+ for bronze. And when you guys get stuck while writing a poem or a song, their site has a cool thingy that finds rhyming words, synonyms, similar sounding words, etc.

<font color=navy>No, they must have liked your poem better. But I got an application for enrolling in their certificate program. They said completing that course will guarantee being published in an anthology, so that must be the anthology you are talking about. The title of my poem is "detached" and I posted it here a long time ago.</font>
