Congrats to Prince and to Delta! Love you my friends and thank you for sharing your poems.
Thanks Qimissung for running this contest. This was such a challenging contest and a tie in the end made it all the more interesting.

I just KNEW Prince wrote Between. Such wonderful wisdom in every line. Who else on Lit-Net could have penned them? Congratulations Prince!

Congratulations, Delta40, on a beautifully visceral poem - but surely there's a typo here in that my last line got stuck on to the end of your poem!!!

Congrats to Prince and Delta! Both of those poems were amongst the ones I had narrowed down my voting for. I have a few quibbles I could make with both, but they're very good poems that I certainly have no objection to winning... although, you know what they say a tie is like. I think we need a system around here for breaking ties. Maybe from now on when a vote is tied we start another thread where voters choose just between those that are tied?

No, Morpheus, what do they say about ties?
I wasn't entirely happy with the situation, but I'd asked around a lot, and extended the contest for over a week. Now I kind of like it. Why won't more people vote? We have tons of members.
Well, what does everybody think of Morpheus' idea?

"A tie is like kissing your sister," was the phrase I was thinking of.

Qim, I have found the contest only now as it's all over... enjoyed all the poems and like the idea of two winners especially because both winning poems are differently, but equally excellent! Bravo Delta and Prince! Please keep me posted about new contests, if possible... cheers to you all.
I would say it is a good idea.
