There's Blood on the Sheets by BlueMeadow193

_{The strange complexity of this poem stuffs
a puffer fish down the throats of the readers
and beckons them to decipher it's meaning in a
limited amount of time. Alternative beauty it
should be called, enticing its audience with perfect word choices.}

Life in four songs01.
Sitting in the back of the train, life going by so fast, yet so slow. Nothing to see, nothing to talk about.
The same four songs repeated over and over, my head on your shoulder, your head on mine. Almost asleep, we stand up, both at the same time, head back to our seats, closing the glass door, sitting down without touching, in a room of laughter.
Always without words.
We didn't need them.
02.
Laying on my bed, side by side, close enough for our one pair of headphones to reach both of us. Arms barely touching, feet up on the wall. Comfortable and silent, listening to the same four songs, over and over,
barely noticing that we are both crying.
Carefully, slowly, almost unnoticed, our hands move closer
until they cling to each other with a hope for happiness.
03.
Walking down an unknown street, close but not touching, four songs only going through our heads, though at the same time for both of us, because the batteries died.
In search of pretty alcohol, behind the rest of the group,

Life in Four Songs by bluefroggy67

_{Between love and the sorrow over a missing love,
this poem stands out greatly. The emotions are
rising and falling in a well balanced matter, creating
a very beautiful yet sad atmosphere.}

Ancient Times by Cortzan-X

_{Judging by the beginning of the poem you'd
never expect it to be as dark as it truly is.
It reflects the darkness a man's heart holds through
the eyes of an old father and a young daughter who
wanted to leave with the man she loves.
A very impressive work.}

Prose

DisorderYou've got to stop doing that.
Seriously, it's getting dangerous.
I could die, you know.
(It's sick how I can sense your presence in a room. It's positively sickening. And once I finally see you, my eyes automatically stick to you, despite how much I don't want to want to. Still, though, it makes more sense than my eyes darting back and forth toward you and away from you, back and forth, unable to restrain myself, looking like the pathetic freak that I am. And you start to walk past me, and there is a moment when the entire human population is deprived. They are all starved, blank, empty homeless children. There is a moment where the angle and the distance and light I am seeing you in is beautiful beyond comprehension: instant understanding comes through and the process of comprehension doesn't exist. Everyone who doesn't, can't, experience this, this moment right now, is so sad. It is simply sad.
I am the only one who sees it. The lines, the angles of your face from this

"Disorder" by lookatyouall

<sub>With a beautiful touch of humor,
"Disorder" describes just how dangerous beauty
can be.  The tone is perfect, a balance of disgust
and longing, that goes straight to the heart
and rings true.

"MISD: C is for Carat" by Empnezz

_{This short piece has a black comedic tone to it
circled around the ironic conclusion of the piece.
It is intellegiently constructed, portraying a
realistic scene. Every line adds to the scene, including
the witty title, and this attention to detail is
evident in the quality of the piece produced.}
