Challenge
Poetry contest. Twenty word minimum. First place will be decided based on the poem, of course, though the number of comments posted by others will be factored in (critiques or praise, no one word or three word quickies) and those who comment should "like" it to keep the judges looking for updated reads. Write a poem about anything. Aim for the gut. Winner gets $100.
“No Quote”
What is the world
even for?
It's so full of blood,
so full of gore,
of hate and disrespect.
So meaningless in every
aspect of the word.
When humanity is over,
who will even remember
that I wrote?
Nothing will survive.
No poem, no book, no quote.
Life is but a burning note.
