Poetry Contest - TOPICS

[ElectricBadger]

Oh no's indeed, Thrall! Although FireFly is still out for a bit, I've gotten the green light to introduce themes for now, so, predictably,

The theme for October is Beat Poetry!

For examples, I suggest Howl (the definitive beat poem) or Sunflower Sutra (a bit more accessible) by Allan Ginsberg, or Mexico City Blues by Jack Kerouac.

As before, this theme is intended to be inspirational, not limiting. Interpret it as fits yourself and your own style, or respond to it with another. The authors mentioned above would be the first to tell you not to stress about style or convention, that there is no 'right way', so have fun with this!
