Mid week was how it was originally. Don't see any problem if you want to take it to midweek again. It's your thread so it is done. ;)
 
Existentialism

The world's a cold concrete maze
of seagulls and parked cars.
The setting sun, tired of fighting a losing battle,
feigns a smile in my direction
then disappears behind the argent clouds above.
My world gives way to a hundred shades of gray.
 
Gold Glow

It's kinda strange to see the sky lit up
When its normal source of life sleeps
To have the empty, barren night
Cast it's glow on the cloud hanging low
It's easy to think that this little burg dies
And rises like the sun so gone;
That this place simply goes quiet
And the glowing mist keeps all away
But you just have to look
They're even still excitement beneath the glow

yeah it's late, but, whatever
 
Yep. Just riding this one out till nanorimo finishes. And then we can fit in with the sister creative writing thread. So we'll have either one on an alternative week.

Get your votes in!

:P
 
I think technically since you're the only one who voted, you win.... Nanowrimo is over. You can start the new thread, if you end it next weekend. That should bring about the perfect schedule.

If you don't want do it, let me know, and I'll post a new one. This has dragged on long enough.

edit: If I were to vote,

1, Felix
2, tragi

Nonetheless, I'm cool with you winning. Since you voted in reasonable time.

My poem was the weakest of the three, so I'll gladly defer to you in making the next thread. Here's hoping for more participation in the next round.
 
Well, I guess, I'd go:

1. Tragicomedy
2. Ashes

Well would you look at that! 3 Way tie! :)

That said I don't mind making the next theme or letting Tragi or Ashes do it.
 
Ha ha. Lol. We need a three way coin toss. I'll go to random number generator to pick from 3 numbers.

Done. 3. Wait, who was 3?

First we assign numbers, (alphabetical order)

1. Ashes
2. Felix
3. Tragi

Go.

And the winner is....

2.

Felix, the next thread is yours buddy. we should probably go with the next weekend (like we use to), instead of midweek, so we can realign with the sister thread.
