New Day's Lyric

Torn, we come to tend,
Battered, we come to better.
Tethered by this year of yearning,
We are learning
That though we weren't ready for this,
We...

My Heart Is in the East

My heart is in the east,
and I am in the distant west.

How can I taste what I eat,
and how can it be sweet?

How can I fulfill by vows and oaths,
as long as Zion is in the chains of Edom,
and I am in the binds of the...

I truly value the feedback from each and every one of you, with a special shout-out to you, Robin! ;-) It's important to acknowledge that our community is the driving force behind Poetry.com's success, and we are committed to enhancing it to meet the expectations of our esteemed members. The matter at hand is undoubtedly subject to debate, and we will continue to brainstorm collectively on ways to make notable improvements as we move forward.

I have no straightforward response to this feedback to be honest. On one hand, displaying the poet names before the contest can enhance transparency, but on the other hand, concealing them can avoid voters from being influenced by external factors like reputation or previous work. As a middle-ground solution, we have opted to display the poet initials, which we hope is a suitable compromise.

Robin just brought to my attention that Gerald Logie was actually the first poet to win first place twice… apologize for the oversight on my part. It seems that there may be a competition brewing to determine the first poet to win three times and settle the question of who truly is the better poet :-)
