Whatever contest-


"The Quill Awards" is often short on short poems, so that's this month's target


There are 2 prompts for June. You may write 2 items, one for each prompt. I will give you 5k per prompt. I've written the prompts so you can easily copy and paste each into your item (a contest request). Note that the length of these prompts is specifically directed at the Best Short Poem, Structured and Best Short Poem, Free Verse categories in "The Quill Awards" . They require poems be 15 lines or less. My hope is that there will be a couple of nominations from this month's contest. Below are the prompts for your copying pleasure.


Open Prompt: Write a poem 15 lines or less, Structured or Free Verse, on the topic of your choosing.
Written for "The Whatever Contest." "The Whatever Contest -- Closed for Now" 

Word/Line Count: line count 3 lines
