I'd rather wait for the prose contest. I'm a total klutz at poetry. And, longest of times, Wunmi. How have you been? You went totally off NL. |

@larry-sun, na work o make me run for nairaland. prose takes more time to come up with. the time is short and we don't want poorly written submissions. we may have a prose contest coming up in few months. enter for this or tell pple about it may be the leverage they've been looking for. 1 Like |

You didn't state the form at which the poem can be written. Can one write on any poetry form of his/her choice? |
Re: My Oga At The Top Poetry Contest (over N1.5 M naira worth) 24 hrs to go by wumifab(m): 7:41pm On Mar 26, 2013 |
@timpaker...any form of poetry is acceptable. just be creative and have it properly edit. |
