Hail, and well met my various poets, and comrades in writing.

I said that I was leaving poetry for a while in my poem I posted last, and in truth I felt I had nothing to accomplish really, and writing seemed a bit...... unappealing. However, I have had a thought, why don't we have a challenge, a poetry "battle?" Its essentially like a Graphics based battle, but the volleys are poems instead of graphics.

So, possibly the first A-U poetry battle challenge is going out. If you feel like competing in it, then post here, and we will sort out what the rules and rounds are over MSN/PM
