Here's a great suggestion which came up in digestion. If you can turn a tidy rhyme then you can make a prime dime.

Subject: Internet, Special Reserve, Freeola, Games, Consoles and/or people or animals of the forums (including staff)*.

Your subject must be any or all of the above otherwise your poem will not count.

Best poem by midday on September 5th wins a £25 EXTRA GAD prize. That's any game of your choice up to £25. (Poems are worth much to us)

Only one winner. The Judge will be Fate (my wife).

Oh yes - leave out the complete rubbish PLEASE. And if it is supposed to be the words to a tune then please tell us which tune as we don't carry a juke box of ditties in our little heads.

*er - I don't mean the staff are animals.

I thought limerics had 5 lines not 8.

That one's a limerick.
Honestly, kids these days dont know the difference between purple prose and "There once was a man from Nantucket..."

8am and I'm already here....*bangs head on desk*
15 mins till I leave for work. I'm sitting in my pants with a cup of tea and a fag, watching all the mums load their ONE SINGLE CHILD into a Space Wagon and getting ready to block the roads with their stupid oversized vehicles for their ONE SINGLE CHILD.

It may be early, but the vitriol rises just as easy

Actually.. as it happens, I've sold 'poetry' for more than that before. Shall I just say that certain 'artists' in the hip-hop/garage scene have to commission ghostwriters to write their raps... I just wish I could name names!
