meaning the poem has to have something to do with beauty...or the poem itself has to do with beauty

the idea of this competition is which poem best exemplifies beauty...whetehr in the way it describes it or represents it with imagery.

that being said the format of the contes is going to change


there will be 2 to three rounds
4-8 contestants (this determines the rounds)

-each poet starts off in the first round with two poems
-a voter will be able to vote twice for the two poems they feel toouched beauty the best (doesn't have to be the same poet)
-second round will be determined by the 4 or 2 poets with the most votes
between their two poems combined
-if there are more than four poets then there will be a semi final round
-in this round the top 4 poets will face off in a regular 1 vs 4 2 vs3 set up. their poem that had the most vote in the first round will be the only poem they can
use to represent them
-final round will only include the two poetes who won the semi final round (or if there was no semi final round the two poets who had the
most votes in the first round)
-final round requires each poet to produce two new poems and it's going to be head to head

-alright...so basically each poet needs a maximum three poems that give the audience and idea of what beauty is
-all rhymes must rhyme at least every three lines
-no AA BB rhyming...(i might change this for this contest depending)
same prize system...nothing's changed...only the format


ask questions enter your name and let me know what you have planned....and trust me dere should be questions because i don't htink dis was a hundred percent clear

-poems must shed light on what beauty is
-follow the parameters
and anything else that needs to be revised between now and the voting date
