CONTEST 4
First Prize
Even If Your Voice Shakes
You must be the change
You wish to see in the world
There is no easy way
All that is necessary
For evil to succeed
Is that good men do nothing
Silence is compliance
We are slaves when we
Fear to speak
Be heard
Speak your mind
Even if your voice shakes
Fear is temporary
Regret is forever
Speak your mind
Even if your voice shakes

Go Away
Good morning,
Internet junkie
how may I ignore you today?
Self-absorbed poser,
you are pathetically
predictable.
You post
therefore
you spam.
Blah, blah, blah.
Do they ever shut up
on your planet?
Who broke your
capslock key?
Anger
is not
an argument...
get a grip!
Maybe
you should go to eBay
and buy a clue.
Enough!
Gimme a break.
Log off!

Runners Up
Gabi, a.k.a. Lady Joe
Punk
I'm the kind of person
my parents want me to stay away from.
I'm one of those bad things that happens to
good people.
I steal at work
I talk to strangers
I bring nothing to the table
I can resist everything except temptation.
(Oscar Wilde)
I never apologize.
I'm sorry, but that's just how I am.
Yes, I am an agent of Satan
but my duties are largely ceremonial.
I blame society. I am the voices.
I'm part of the problem.

Born to post
Bow before me
For I am root!

Kelsey Farnell
My Life
I hate my life,
And my life hates me.
I steal at work,
I'm happy in the pants,
I'm no sell out,
But I'd love the chance.
I do bad things,
(I'm the good kind of bad.)
I'm thinking of making low self esteem a fad.
I don't do perky,
I don't do requests,
I think therefore I am depressed.
I like toast,
I like glue,
I'm not myself today, maybe I'm you

Second Prize
Kimberley Chandler
This message will not be repeated
Imagine no order. Chaos.
Imagine the future doesn't need us.
When no one trusts, does it matter that everyone lies?
The lovers, the dreamers and me, we will not obey troubled youth.
I know what’s best for you. I'll not stop.
Am I the last sane person here?
You non-conformists are all alike:
Thought criminal, obsequious minion,
Don't believe everything you think.
Beware of dogma.
Simplify. elevate. grow.
Doubt everything.
Life happens. There is no easy way.

Is this really happening?
I blame society.
