You dont have too. Its the person's choice. But its always good too try. You learn much from trying.

For the record' date=' you forgot an apostrophe, and it's spelled "to."

Thirteenth spot? Epic.

 

[spoiler=A sonnet. Because that's what I do.']

Conformity is lauded here today

And that of human nature speaks but ill

If others we expect to heed our way

Without a word, what says that we then will?

One massive double standard our world keeps

Imposing universally on all

If of good heart this the benefits would reap

And servants good, then emperors would fall

Throughout the world. So why do prosper they

Who set the code, then turn their backs on it?

Because the code is weak and meant to stay

Their offices; they do as they see fit.

Why would we all this madness tolerate?

Because we've nothing better, none more great.

 

 

Hardly my best work, but w/e.

Sans the sarcasm, you hit the nail on the head. Perfection of grammar doesn't always seem pretentious.

In real life, sarcasm should never be so intricate.

I wrote this after listening to all over me by drowning pool.

[spoiler=Insanity the song]You say that I'm conceited

In your eye's I'm defeated

The closer you are to me

Is further than I can see

 

What happens next?

No one can tell

In your text

I seem well

 

In your heart the truth tells it's lies

In your mind everything seems right

These cold, dark walls closing in tight

I'll never get away, so now I say my goodbyes.

 

These emotions dwelling inside of me

Are greater than I wish them to be

I gathered all of them up today

So that I may throw them away

 

This cold, dark room I call divine

Even though it's all in my mind

You say I need to find some help

So now you'll rot with the kelp

 

What happens next?

No one can tell

In your text

I seem well

 

In your heart the truth tells it's lies

In your mind everything seems right

These cold, dark walls closing in tight

I'll never get away, so now I say my goodbyes.

Watch your apostrophes; you seem to be using them in far too many possessives (exempli gratia, the refrain line "in your heart the truth tells it's lies")

Thank you, I have never done well with punctuation.

my entries...i really hope spilling doesn't count...

[spoiler=Wrath]

“ Wrath”

Wrath…sloter…killing is the path you walk,

In the depths of your mind you think to yourself who are you going to kill next,

Sloter will get you nothing more then heat-read not love,

What ever come out of this I ask you…all you answer is pleasure,

Everyone knows your going you die alone without anyone,

On your way to hell where you belong,

Then the darkened clouds finally fade away into the era of peace has come again…

 

 

 

 

[spoiler=After thought]

"After Thought"

I wake in the middle of the night to hear my own screaming,

"It...it was just a dream" i say to myself,

The dream of blood lust i was killing everyone in my path no way i could stop myself i was being possessed,

My wife wakes for my screaming she heard me saying all this weird stuff,

"It was just a nightmare, it wasn't real it's ok know" she said gently kissing me on the lips,

I blush slight and closed my eyes to savour the moment,

I guess this is my after thought on going on a rampage and killing everyone at work...

As the title states it is entirely in jest towards you, Supreme Gamsemaster, for your utter commitment towards spelling and grammar.

[spoiler=entirely in jest]You say I cannot spell at all

And how dare you have the gall

TO say that I can't write poetry

And Yet you write so stiffly

That soon you'll be bored

While I'm having a ball.

In response:

[spoiler=Ode to the Trickster Priest]

They say there's reason why the good die young.

I say, quite simply, that, that's balderdash.

They say that being evil's never fun.

I say, it's fun while human beings clash

O'er trivialities not worth the time

Of even one who's ever been constrained

By silver strings of Fate. Through blood and grime

A mortal might press on, only to find

He's just conspired to waste a bit of life.

And then he'll say 'tis my fault! That's the grind

To which the vile subjected are. See, strife

and chaos, idiocy, and pain

Are so much fun, the cruel will ne'er be slain!

 

 

Besides, you have to master a language before you can manipulate it. ;)

Nvm. Lol i'll just post the damn poems :P

 

[spoiler=Greed]

Dont take too much' date='

People will hate you.

Dont ask for luxury,

People wont love you.

 

You've took too much,

Just because he came.

Put it back now,

Away with your shame.

 

We will give you money,

We will give you wealth.

But remember this,

We wont give you health.

 

We will let you die,

For what you want.

Wealth and money,

And you still flaunt.

 

Like your the best,

The best in the world,

Just because you've taken,

What isnt yours.

 

Dont betray your friends,

Dont betray your mother.

You've taken from them,

You'll never get another.

 

Greed is distasteful,

For when you want,

Even if the price is bones,

What rightfully isnt yours,

Will make you live alone.

 

[spoiler=Restraint']

Dont release your restraint.

Keep it in chains.

 

Live it, breathe it,

Away from shame.

 

Making yourself live,

Off of items too suffice,

Makes you live plentiful,

And helps you live life.

 

I know its tough,

I know its crazy.

 

But in the long term,

Restraint is amazing.

 

 

Well sid since you were the only one to completely complete the task of the contest and only two people joined.. I'm still gunna give you the rewards for winning.
