We've had some very interesting titles for the past challenges. I was nearly tempted to one-up them with something like
"Broken Friends of Tangled Persuasions in Blind Copacetic Shadows." but instead opted for
a change of pace.
Challenge number #6 is to write an extraordinary poem, based on the rather ordinary word "Bent".
(fine print: it doesn't really have to be extraordinary )
----------
The title for the Same-Title challenge #6 is Bent
From The American Heritage Dictionary:
-- bent v.
1. Past tense and past participle of bend.
-- bent adj.
1. Altered from an originally straight or even condition: pieces of bent wire.
2. Determined to take a course of action: I was bent on going to the theater.
3. Chiefly British. Corrupt; venal.
-- bent n.
1. A tendency, disposition, or inclination: "The natural bent of my mind was to science"
2. A transverse structural member or framework used for strengthening a bridge or trestle.
A review of the rule:
All are welcome. Simply title your poem "Bent" and submit it (through normal Lit methods) on Thursday (the 6th) which will hopefully make it appear as a New Poem on Friday, March 7th.
The content of the poem is up to you: erotic, non-erotic (or for the kinky crowd - both). Of course there is no need to abide by the dictionary's definition. Feel free to warp the word into any theme that seems to like being published 'neath the title "Bent".
Tradition is that you post your intention to participate here (so we can all apply subtle pressure as the due date approaches), but surprise entries on Friday are welcome as well.
So go write.
For some indirect inspiration, here are the links to past challenges:
5. Copacetic Persuasion (Angeline)
4. Tangled Fluorescence (Judo)
3. Foaf (Rybka)
2. Shadow Theatre (Lauren.Hynde)
1. Broken Blinds (WickedEve)
