Well, I've got it written, and I suspect it's going to get posted pretty much without tons of editing because of my time crunch. It took me an hour and a half, so I don't think it's going to win, but I guess I'll post it anyway...once I get it typed. Haha.

Never thought I'd say this, but I wrote a poem:

PHOENIX, or, Set Fire to the River

It's rather short, so if I receive more brainwaves I'll enter another. Thanks for the fabulous prompt, guys. ^_^

I'm pretty excited, too. Just because of the massive response to this.

One more day.

FLEMZO'S ENTRY: Ten Weeks

I actually used another picture to inspire me for a poetry assignment for my Creative Writing class, so this contest worked dually! Huzzah!

NewWriter>> You can still enter. I don't even think it will count as a 'late entry,' considering the fact that in most timezones it's still the 10th.

*bops Kylan* Yeah, wait until the day completely expires. Wink

All entries up until until 11.59 P.M. GMT -10 (Western Alaska/Hawaii time) today will be accepted!

NewWriter: If you don't see this message until it's too late, we'll allow you to post it on the 11th, as it is our fault. We should have posted that rule earlier.
