Filed Under Poegles, contest, poetry contest, poetry for money | Leave a Comment
The end of the third month of 2009…. the year is already flying by. Upon us is April, the cruelest month according to a certain poet; perhaps that is why April is also National Poetry Month. Celebrate National Poetry Month by writing a poegle, or a dozen!
Last Call For The March 2009 Poegles Challenge
Each month we award $100 to a poegler for the best crafted poegle, as chosen by the Editors of Poegles.com. We will accept poegles of any length and in any form, provided that they are in English. In order to be entered to win, poeglers must register for the Poegles.com newsletter, and provide us with copy by noon EST on the date of the contest deadline. Poeglers must also supply the search phrase they used to generate the poegle, as well as a mailing address to which the cash award can be sent. Participants grant to Poegles.com rights to publish their poegles, per our terms.
Send us your poegles! The March 2009 Poegles Challenge is open until noon EST on March 31st, 2009. Please email your poegles to editor@poegles.com. Please include your name and the search phrase that you used to generate your poegle. Last month’s winner: Jamie in Brooklyn for At the Edge of the Park. Check it out!

Killer poegle

Attitude That Kills
Listen.
It enshrouds every
ingredient of your blood
oozing tension and fast kill.
An attitude that obliterates all initiative,
innovation and originality.
You’re thinking:
If AIDS doesn’t kill you
your attitude will.
Stressful atmosphere
and negative attitude devour your brain cells-
clinically proven.
And when the choice is kill or be killed
there is NO choice!
At least you have a choice of attitude.
Kill the negative monster before it kills YOU.
All you need is PMA: a positive mental attitude,
here to help you with the Perfect Playthrough Plan
Beware!
A feeble fight can be the start of a death spiral…
But then: Oh my, I know you’re not an ordinary being …
Listen.
-Nicole (search phrase “attitude that kills”)
