Your poem captures has such a playful disregard for the rules. I love that this was your take on the conetst prompt. Your poem is both entertaining and thought provoking. It's clear you embraced the "no rules" theme with gusto and creativity!

Thanks, Michael. Glad you enjoyed this.

We have to have rules, of course, but some folks follow them more strictly than others.

Awe, a No Rules Contest. As crimes increase
the wheels we grease.
release police
to bring us peace
(the golden fleece)
from mad caprice.

A favorite stanza of mine. A hard choice. Many good stanzas. Seen this contest lingering around town. Guess the voting booth will be soon? But BOO is just a goon. Well done! Bravo.

BOO!

Hi there, Boo!

No voting for this one - it's a site contest that will go the judging panel. I simply had fun here capturing a few random thoughts about what life would be like without rules.

And may you be blessed with a winning streak, Steve! Enjoyed your fun poem about "no rules" and I'm sure you created some rules here to keep all your stanzas mono-rhymed. Best wishes in the contest!

Thank you!

Yep, monorhyme was my self-imposed rule although pretty much everything else went out the window.
