Check In By: Saturday June 16, 2007 11:59pm ET
Poem Due By: Tuesday June 19, 2007 11:59 ET
If you no-show, you will not be permitted to participate in the next round. If it becomes a habit, you will not be a part of this league.
NO EXTENSIONS WILL BE GIVEN! Call it tough love... but if you want to be part, please make the time.
You will be voting on:
- On Topic
- Depth
- Imagery
- Originality
- Flow
- Word Choice/Diction
- Enjoyment
- Overall
(A lot like the Topical League)
Not just "A" did better than "B", but explain WHY... we are all here to elevate and get more feedback on our work!
YOU MUST vote on at least 2 other battles to make this work in the beginning!!! If you do not vote, votes for your poem may be discounted.
TOPIC: You were adopted as an infant and are now a full grown adult making your own life. One day while at work, you spot a woman following you. When you confront her, she knows your name, where you were born,
and more. She tells you she is your mother, and that you are the fruit of immaculate conception. How do you respond to this woman? Do you shun her and deem her crazy? Are you excited to meet your mother for the
first time? Explain your thoughts and feelings.
Good luck, you two!
