Challenge
Poetry contest. Twenty word minimum. First place will be decided based on the poem, of course, though the number of comments posted by others will be factored in (critiques or praise, no one word or three word quickies) and those who comment should "like" it to keep the judges looking for updated reads. Write a poem about anything. Aim for the gut. Winner gets $100.

Forgotten Poem
I have realized that you don't
need to close your eyes
to go to sleep.
oh, it is a sleep so deep,
and how I will weep
when you go into
your eternal
sleep.
