First, I will post the overall rules, and then I will post the specifics about this week.

Original rules, as stated by Ubertuna:

It must fit the week's theme.
It must be submitted by the deadline.
It cannot have inappropriate language in it.
It cannot be stolen (if you plagiarize, we will find you).


Also:

The poem must be created for this contest
A user cannot win two weeks in a row (though everyone is welcome to submit every week!)
Only one submission per user will be accepted

As we all know, the winner will recieve a merit, and their poem will be featured on the _Poetry_ page.


OK, on to this week's topic...Again, we are having a style instead of a theme. Also, this week we are having TWO WEEKS to do it, instead of the usual one. Why? Because this will be an EPIC poem. Or, rather, a parody of an epic poem. Generally, epic poetry is very long, and tells the serious story of a heroic figure. Well, this week, the epic figure is YOU! Write a long poem (I'll leave the definition of 'long' up to you, but give it a good go) about the heroic story of you! It can be silly, serious, whatever... just have fun with it. You have two weeks, so have a great time!

Rule #1: Don't use the words "blow," "mount," "long and/or hard," "sticky," or "come" in a room full of immature boys. It spells trouble.

"Wet" is also one of those words...

'Aw man, I'm all wet after being outside.' (...)

But pure awesome. :3

If the world seems to be spinning all of a sudden, make sure you aren't hanging upside down with a noose around your ankle.

When you've put your foot in it,
When it hits the fan,
When you hit return and then wonder,
If you might face a ban,
Reaching for the panic button,
Hit control and zed,
But you've already posted,
It will haunt you till you're dead,
No matter what the gaffe,
You needn't really bother,
You can always claim the keys,
Were right next to each other,
On the internet you'll never win,
You say yes they see no,
Coz in the land of stupid arguments,
F*** you means hello.

The inspiration for this was based off a popular bash.org quote. See if you can figure out which one.

Hey, focus :P

I decided to use the mild form of that expression because I wanted only the last line to contain an expletive. More poetically...elegant...

Hmm, I don't really understand the meaning of "Out of Context Quotes", but if i get this in the top three, could you guys put Armor Characters Adventures in the popular links? :3

Yesterday, on the computer,
I got banned from ArmorGames,
I wasn't that much of an intruder,
But what the heck, I only hack games!

So I called my friend James,
Oh, I would of called him sooner,
But he was already full of blames,
ArmorFools, those trouble shooters!

Later that day, Paul and I,
We created a new ArmorGames profile,
But ArmorFools knew it was a bad guy,
So they kicked his @$$ in style!

Next thing, they threw us into the junk pile,
And they let us rot there, I wonder why,
So we would just stay there for a while,
Ah, i'm gonna remember this fourth of july...


I hope you enjoyed it!!!
