I have two poetry portfolios to fill so most of my attempts this year will fit one or the other.
The first:
Title: Sirens in Suburbia; required.
Length: 15-20 pages of poetry.
Themes: Myths and their impact on modern day society. Myths in the modern world. Mythical characters. Legends. Modern myths. Seperating the fact from mythdom. Rebirth, misunderstanding/ misinterpretation. Unruliness. Conflict.
Styles: Limericks, ballads, common metre, sestinas, avoid free verse.
The second:
Title: Pending; not required.
Length: 150 lines.
Themes: From how I killed your mother to buttercups and daisy chains. Also known as anything goes.
Styles: Experimental poetry only! Homonyms, phrase manipulation, mesostics, the coin game, googlism, alphabeticals etc.
I'll be writing the first later today and I'll put a warning at the head of any that require a rating. Good luck to anyone else taking part!
Challenges:
Feel free to challenge me to write a certain kind of poem; I like fun games! (Plus there's a good chance it will fall under the experimental poetry catalogue.)
