Poetry Dice Survives! Winner + Challenge #6 [UNLEASHED]
If you couldn't tell by your wallet, @girlbeforemirror, you are the winner of the Poetry Dice Challenge #5!!! :-O
You blow my mind...!
10 day ago I posted Poetry Dice #5 and @girlbeforemirror, you nailed it! Your post Folie a deux was simple, elegant, and as always, stirring!! I liked it a lot -especially because it was strange! :-O
I just love your art and style, what can I say!?!?!? And help me out (anybody who wants to guest judge or co-judge) because it is very difficult to choose a winner sometimes! Every entry for last week was MOST EXCELLENT! :-)
I experienced some strife and was unable to post the next challenge on time for last Thursday. #SHITHAPPENS!! :-O
So thank you for being patient and understanding!! I am sure we all have our problems. Mine was emotionally draining and took some time to recover from. But, anywho...(I don't wanna talk about it :-( - it's poopy.)
Let's celebrate the next challenge instead!! :-D
I needed to include my hand rolling on this round - it's more authentic that way
2nd Place for Poetry Dice Challenge #5 goes to @sazbird
You entry Phone Home was immediately grown onto me. It is now a part of me. :-) I was greatly entertained by E.T. - Your art is nifty and E.T. it is one of my favorite childhood movies. Very existential, leaving the reader cliff-hung and agape...Thank you so very much for you efforts. Again, it was difficult to pick a winner from last week's entries!! :-O
The way the dice landed...
3rd Place for Poetry Dice Challenge #5 goes to @writingamigo
Sun Beams blew my mind! :-O Yes I am prepared to hunt and kill, I mean live in a tent again... ;-) What's society for anyways? Can't we just go back to eating, sleeping, and procreating already???????? Like, really!!! What more do we need? We have developed a higher upon higher archy of bullshit just to rate each other against one another like hyped up animals :-O though less cuddly in our naked skin.... :-/ (can we have emoticons now please Steemit?) XO Congrats and thanks for your entry and appropriate photo for last week's entry :-)
Congrats again to @girlbeforemirror for her stirring 110% ;-)
I hope you will all join me for the next round of POETRY DICE - to the head!!! :-O
Images of the dice for POETRY DICE CHALLENGE #6, the final makeup!
Sample Poem:
Weeds crash upon the shore
Questions linger
A faceless man do I wish to see
But the hand waves, "no more"
To the left or to the right?
I ask myself, magic in my fingers
But is the timing ripe?
Like a poisoned apple,
It towers over me...
Rules:
Find them HERE. Dice must be read from left to right, top to bottom. One image (one die face) per line of poetry.

Nice one, @robbynegs. Thanks for appreciating my poem! I cannot wait to enter this week's challenge! :) I will make it a little more positive this time haha
@robyneggs I missed the deadline and misspelled your name previously... Life is hard those days :D But still, wanted to share this poem, even though it is too late:
Flower in the mud
makes me wonder:
Was it aliens, who built the temples...
or simply human hands.
Those perfect angles -
magical touch.
Clock is ticking,
Fruitful thoughts.
Tower won't build itself.
Hey it's not too late!!!
I noticed the wallet and then couldn't see a post. Thank you, it was good to enter and good to breathe a bit of life back into ET :-)
You're back! I was just going to comment on Dice 5 to see if you were OK.
WooHoo!! @robyneggs is back! Of course I noticed my wallet, thank you. I have been checking back to see when you might pop up.
It's incredible that you see something in my scrawls and rambles, thank you very much.
I will Throw my hat in the ring , as guest judge if you like.
Nine dice! You found them. Game on! :)
Excellent - I will take you up on that offer! :D Guest judge it is! :D
