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!

*wonders if I should try* *looks at poem abilities*

It's hard to be a moderator
Don't you think
Having people conversating
Before you blink
A thousand comments
just for you
People having problems
Now what do you do

Being stressed
sleeping late
Should have guessed
it is fate
like that time
you know when
You were more than a friend

All alone at day
Wathcing the hours go by
Contact rejected
No one calling but I
But what you wished for
became the Truth
I just hope
You have nothing to lose...

-------------
Bah.

No, jalex. Fail prize is mockery for making a bad entry.

A Limerick Ballade to our Princess

I once knew a good lass, a Dane,
She was smart, and made use of her brain,
So they gave her a mop
Like Tuna and Strop
On AG, Zophia's the name.

First she tried out her shiny padlock
On a spammy thread filled with dumb crock
That new lock she snapped
All discussion was capped
It was time now to deal with the sock.

The sock was quite boisterous and rude
While he roamed, much mayhem ensued,
Came Zoph with the hammer,
Threw him into the slammer,
That sock was royally screwed.

It was time for the gift of the merit
What user would be first to share it?
She found a nice comment
And left them a present
Could be you, if you take time to prepare it.

Zophia, she sets us a-dazzle
Helps us when we're up in a frazzle
But one thing I inquire
Between Princess and Squire,
What's the difference 'twixt furries and mazzelh?

Oh, the fail to rhyme with mazzelh, and my inability to write phonetics~

Furries and that whole fandom.
Mazzelhs, here or here.

An anthro mazzelh can be defined as a furry, and normal mazzelh can be classified as anthropomorphous animals, though they do not se their ability to speak as a human trait.

Nice meter~

And yes, I fail at recognizing rhetorical questions, if that is what it was, and have a very persistent urge to reply and explain.

...

Yeah.

Insomia
Zophia posted in he community
She like to ask for some immunity
Can't sleep from insomia she had
But milk and cookies she doesn't have

She ask for advice and truly we saved
Everybody helps from every corners made
We told what to do, We told her what to get
All of this things she must not forget

She stared in a computer long enough to cry
Her eyes are like waterfalls waiting to dry
I told just to focus and then bwalah!
She must be asleep by now and it mades me proud!

She do alots of arts and alots of dragons
so that she must be tired of all the motions
She roams around her house everyday
but now it is snowing she mus stay

This the last stanza for i musk rake
Hope she had been sleeping for goodness sake
She will be more busy! She is a MOD!
But it is time! i must sign off!
