Spacefem's Weekly Useless Poetry Contest
Welcome to the useless poetry contest! Every week, we post a new and very unique theme and invite all our loyal visitors to submit their inspirations based on it! After ten days, we vote on who composed the coolest, most original, or most amusing peice. So if you think this page is stupid today, come back next week, it'll be a new, different kind of stupid!
Help pick our next contest!
New contests are picked by our loyal viewers, so every once in a while we'll want to know what you think. What are you dying to write poetry about?

Submit your own Other Stuff You'd Like To Know
Here's how it works:
- Every week, we announce a new random, useless phrase to serve as the theme for your poetry.
- You have ten days to submit new poetry based on that phrase.
- Before the two week date, our staff approves all entries (you'll be notified of approval if you provide an e-mail address)
- After ten days, the contest will be officially closed to new submissions and voting can begin.
- You will be able to track votes throughout the contest. If you provide an e-mail address, we will e-mail you when the contest starts.
- If you win, you can feel good about yourself. That's really all you can do because there aren't prizes or anything, but we think feeling good is worth something.
- Winners will be posted on the winners page, with links to their websites.
Poetry rules:
- We accept any format. It doesn't have to rhyme. It doesn't have to make sense.
- The poem should be losely based on the theme presented for the week.
- The entire poem must be original, except for allowable incorporation of the theme phrase.
- Poetry can not be unreasonably vulgar. Bad words are okay, but we reserve the right to reject anything we feel is over the top, for any reason.
- The name and website associated with the artwork must be personal, not commercial, in nature, unless it's commercial in that cool indy designer kind of way. What I'm saying is, if your real name is "FreeOnlineCasino", we'd recommend leaving the name field blank.
All submissions must be submitted and approved before the contest starts. We have the right to deny entry to any submission, for any reason. You can submit as many entries as you want, but if they start to look the same or if we feel like you're overloading the contest, we can stop approving them.
