I am leagues removed from being a poet, so if I'm signing up for this, I must be mad indeed. XD
But the Fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. — Paul the Apostle
Winter is inevitable. Spring will return eventually, and AstralHunter with it.
Alright everyone. We've reached 18 spots, so unless anyone drops out before pairings and the first round is announced, sign-ups are now closed! Please stay tuned for pairings being posted on April 5th! Thank you all for your enthusiasm c: May the Madness begin!

Poems are due by 04/10/2020 22:00 PDT (10 PM PDT). You can edit or change your entry up until that time, but the final entry is due by that time, in a message posted in this thread.
From each group, two people will advance, resulting in eight people proceeding to the next round. However, the last remaining 10 will participate in a redemption round. People were grouped together by inserting the usernames into a randomizer.
Also, all poems submitted must have been written in April.
Have fun!

april 5th, 2020: remnants
standing in the cold springtime air i let myself forget about the to-do list i carefully typed out yesterday morning.
i dig my shovel into the soft, dark earth. i methodically scoop roots and weeds and the clumps of horseradish that were forgotten after last fall.
dressed in the old, hole-ridden hoodie i took care of our chickens in, my dad’s old work gloves, and hiking boots that hurt when i wear them for too long, i am no longer the girl who sits silently in the front row of my college classes.
i’m the remnant of a time long gone. i’m a wild anomaly in a perfect, digital world. i’m a girl who never will exist outside of the context of my house and weekend mornings spent working underneath the gray sky and the hot, hot sun.
Good thing I made it before april 3rd!
