@TriSARAHtops Well, any poet is fine. I'd prefer a poem either on death or on the afterlife.

Alone is what I have, alone protects me.

@TriSARAHtops; I'm pretty sure I understand what's the competition is about, so don't worry.

I find it interesting to make a story based on the the given poem, and I'm sure it would motivate me to make a story.
