Topics For Tourny
 

I have the match ups already made. This tourny will have 16 people competing, so I need 15 good topics for you all to write about. Once I get 15 good topics, I will post up the matchups and this tourny can be started.

So you want us, the common tourney people, to drop subjects for you to decide?

If yes - Soiled Norms

?

^ Yes, that is the general idea. I just want to set up this tourny and keep it organized.

sorry for the freepost I have OCD and ADD
'so how about them steelers?'
'whats this forum for?'

seriously how were the topics provided in the
tournament that gege won?

her and phrantk should be spewing them
out for us since theyre judging it all

End..youve done your part and now they
should do thiers...with all respect due...

if the people competing were able to choose
their own topics they could write their verses
already and it would be unfair...doncha think?

im just about ready to judge this damn thing
for realz...if thats okay..hehe

Not really, seeing as I will be picking which topic gets used by which people.. So, unless they have written to every topic that I recieve, I don't see how it is unfair.

I figured the yellow umbrealla dealy had to do with that one artist who once took a bunch of yellow umbreallas and put them all standing up in a row across the highway and he was really fucked up in the head or high or some dumb ass shit cause he ended up calling it "art". Pft, the fucking cum in my belly button after I masturbate is more art then that.

Which brings a great topic... Cum Art!

Ooh I know, poetry is often about invoking emotions. But what if those emotions and thoughts invoked, aint endorsed or believed in by the author? Like this subject... Bone Cancer: It's wonderful just like Jesus or Santa Claus, only better cause it's real!

Or how about streching the author's mind in ways they cannot contort. Sure, we all can be depressed sons of bitches with "feelings" and "emotions" and all that supid sheiße, but what if we went in the opposite direction? Comedy... A topic where the person has to make fun of their ownself in the most comedic way possible. (Although that wouldn't be fair, cause what if you're a fucking retarded dumbass like me? Thered be so much to laugh at.)

Or maybe we should all look to some higher power in life. Y'know they say the Christian God allows bad things to happen to good people because bad things happen period. But what if it was the other way around? What if there was no God, but there still was a Satan? Would that mean that Satan is making bad things happen to good people on purpose? But what about... If you were Satan, what good things would you allow to good people, and how would you, as Satan, feel about it?

Y'know you don't need to go so far as to the fictional role of Satan to do something like that. But to be different... well... None of us are bad people, right? But we know bad people do bad things. Do any of us ever ask ourselves... why? Why did that man rape that woman? Why did that woman run over that man? Why did he molest that child? Why did that child kill its mother? How about a topic where the author has to put their eyes in the sockets of one of these bad people and actually go through with their thought patterns as they commit their crime?

But for me, in the end, it's all about the simple joys in life. My greatest joy is a bowl of soft chocolate ice cream. How about a topic where you have to go in depth and detail about a small and simple thing that brings immense and boundless pleasure?

Just a thought... I'm an idiot, I know.
