This was the hardest contest to judge so far. We had so many magnificent poems, and you guys are all amazing poets. The talent is suffocating; it really is. These are the winners that we chose for the third contest. We're sorry if you aren't on the list, but please congratulate the lovely winners and know that we appreciate all of your beautiful, thoughtful, and inspiring entries.
Here are the winners:
1st Place - "Bugs during rain" by S-Ingrate
You can move a mountain
But never punch a raindrop
If we get our just deserts
Life ain't a cakewalk
Big talk, businessmen
Hotspots, and makeup
Bacon and skyscrapers
Pancakes and K-pop
We just pay attention to the floods
Never mind the sprinklers that are hanging from above
If we do we celebrate the flowers with new buds
Never say the showers also tend to murder bugs
You should take a look at what does happen on the bus
All that salt ain't healthy, it ain't healthy for the slugs
Umbrellas always up, whether wealthy or a bum
Logically it don't always just rain inside the slums
Down come the cannonballs on the plants and animals
Life is like a basketball, now you're telling me
Crushing force is "miniscule", still we become cannibals
There's no second chances, oh, like a spelling bee
We just pay attention to the storms
As if nothing ever happened several weeks before
It isn't like an infected-apple stranger worm
It builds itself little small cocoons before it's born
First task, don't be scared of rain on the forecast
No need to barricade the doors if you have a doormat
Rain is painful too, and it's best to not ignore that
So afraid of being swatted, just remember who we blow at.
About: S-Ingrate writes rhyming poetry/raps about mental health-related topics. His goal as a poet is to help other people feel better with his writing. See more of his poems/raps in his books iNFRA, The Book of Guilt, and The Straddlers.
Note: Rap the poem above, and you'll understand why we picked it. It sounds amazing, and it's a lot of fun, especially if you're doing it in a quiet and isolated room by yourself.
2nd Place - "Puddle" by TheMasterAssassin101
