Vacant Hole

Memories fill this vacant hole
A lonely corridor

Once full of flowers
Tirelessly planted by your seed
Irrigated with your scent

Your aroma capsized me
Encapsulated my morals
I offered them to you within a gelatin case
Needing you to break inside

I begged you to enter
To consume each with a desperate force

The potent medication sedated you
And you lovingly slept within walls
That once stood painted with your artistic touch
Now left hopelessly naked of your graffiti

Sometimes
When I close my eyes
I blindly search the barren hallways
Of a space once illuminated with your scent
Now dark

Void of your passionate color

Pleasure is felt

But only as faint

As the memories

That fill this vacant hole

To allow poets a place to feel comfortable writing within the genre of erotica (anonymous)


To offer new writers a chance to compete on an equal level against well known writers (not a popularity contest)


For seasoned writers to gain further online exposure

Men's and Women's Erotic Poetry Competition!

Thanks for my beautiful graphic Rayne!




Thanks for my beautiful banner Jason!



You MUST enter by Sunday, August 9th at 11:59 p.m. (PCT). Submissions will be due by Sunday, August 16th at 11:59 p.m. (PCT).

-- Submissions should be emailed to me at eroticwritingcompetition@yahoo.com. Submissions should be titled 'My Submission'. PLEASE INCLUDE TITLES as many forget.

-- I will not read any of the writings prior to the contest, so please do not ask me to. As much as possible I try to avoid knowing the author of each piece.


The first blog with submissions will be available Monday the 17th - for approximately 24 hours. There will be approximately 8 writings posted each night. Readers will vote by comment on each blog. The top submission each night will compete on the final evening. The top three poems on the last evening will be the winners of the competition.


I am no longer accepting short stories (unless they are just a few paragraphs) they don't win because people don't take the time to read them - it's hard with 8 submissions to read.


This contest is meant to be one where cheating does not exist, however, so many have been caught cheating and disqualified. All the people that were caught cheating were caught by other writers/readers. Please help keep the integrity of the contest by informing me right away if you know someone is attempting to cheat.


Rules (STRICTLY ENFORCED):

This is NOT A POPULARITY CONTEST - all rules are written in an attempt to enforce that. This contest is designed to ensure that unknown writers have the same chance of winning as popular writers.


-- This contest is for new writings only. No REPOSTS.

-- The poems will not have photos or names with them.


-- No one in the contest may post their submission in their blogs before or during the competition. Even if they have been cut out already. If people start eliminating themselves, it will be easier to guess who is still in the competition.

-- Any writing submitted should not be in a style that will aid readers in identifying its author.


-- All writers should attempt to promote and vote each night the contest runs, even if their poem has already been posted.

Additionally:

-- All writers must help promote this contest.

Though everyone will know who is participating in the contest no one will know who wrote what. Only the names of the finalists will be exposed. That will limit the worry of everyone knowing who came in which place. There will be many people that won't win and nobody will know who finished in what place.

Anyone competing or interested in judging this competition - please subscribe to my blog by clicking on my subscription button (created by Oral Probe - Jason Tucker) below to get any updates or contest information: (THE LINK TO SUBSCRIBE ON THE BLOG PAGE OR THROUGH MY BANNER SEEMS TO BE DISABLED. COMMENT HERE AND i WILL MAKE A LIST OF ALL INTERESTED PARTIES SO THAT I CAN COMMENT THEM TO UPDATE!!!)


Everyone will be able to judge through commenting on the blog - they will just need to read and select their favorite.

Please leave the information on how you found out about this contest in your comments!!!

Any questions MUST be asked by comment. Do not message me for two reasons. These contests keep me really busy. I don't get to my mail as often as I'd like. Additionally, many will have the same questions so it helps to only answer them once.


IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ EVERYTHING ON THIS PAGE. IGNORANCE IS NO EXCUSE OF THE LAW. :)
