2009-01-18 [Rice]: Can we have swear words in the poem?
It is twisted love.

2009-01-18 [Acceber]: Hmm, I think since the winner will be featured on Mainstreet, it's best not to put swear words in it, since it might offend. But thats just what I think =)

2009-01-18 [Rice]: Ok. I'll change it XD

2009-01-31 [Bulma]: My poem is about love it doen't really have anything that describes valentines or the day. Can I still put it up? If I can then which page?

2009-02-04 [Doormat]: This theme is win :D.

2009-02-05 [FutureGrave]: Yay, I want to enter this one. I like the theme ^-^

2009-02-06 [EnigmaXero]: I have just yet...one question.

In terms of the theme, what exactly does it mean by 'twisted love'? =/ I don't like to be asking questions that may be obvious, or that may seem stupid, but I'm kind of stumped by it.

2009-02-07 [FutureGrave]: I am not good at thinking about what people mean by what they say, sorry. I think you stated it well enough. ^-^ Thank you Artsie!

2009-02-07 [EnigmaXero]: I believe so as well.
I figured that is what it meant, but I wanted to make double sure, so I wouldn't have something that was a bit off or anything. ^-^
Thanks for the info, Artsie!

2009-02-08 [EnigmaXero]: I think that did help out mass. ^^
Now, to think of something swiftly by Wednesday. =O

2009-02-08 [EnigmaXero]: =D!
I haven't written poetry since Oct. 2007. Dx

2009-02-08 [EnigmaXero]: I wish I had that kind of motivation to get up and write things down like that. Because I see all kinds of visions when I'm trying to sleep. It's just that if I sit up or stand up, most of the time it makes me wake up, so I'm just like, uggh. Can't sleep. ^-^

But! I will still try. =O
