In the frenzied grip of my bullshit grandstanding the other day I made mention of throwing a poetry competition of sorts or, at the very least, a slam or whatever the hepcats, hipsters and beat poets are calling their wank sessions these days.
I won't linkwhore the post, but you'd be good to look for the letters APW. Seriously, check it out - I really indulge my ego and come off looking like an absolute ass. Good times.
So, since apparently I'm the only asshole who can get away with meter and rhyme 'round these parts, I figured it best to use my powers for good and share the love with the masses. With that in mind, I bring you the as of yet formless and undefined FUPA - First Uber Poetry extrAvaganza.
I will be the All Father for people to blame if this isn't met with blowjobs and cupcakes. In other words, don't not participate just because you're scurrrred of some -2s and a poor reception. In the end, it'll be my fault. Bring me your emo, your heartbreak, your sappy lovesongs...
I wish I could say the following was just an excuse to hitwhore, but I'm really at a loss for how people want this to go. As such, please provide any and all feedback on the following:
- Would you rather this be a competition or an exhibition? Do you want rounds or merely a day of the week set aside - like FUPA Fridays - where submissions could be made?
- I'm thinking that poetry's a little easier to write when you have a theme and not a title to work from. I'm inclined, regardless of rounds or weekly rotations, to simply assign an emotion or subject to the participants and let them create whatever they want from there. I know that 'titles' are preferred around here, so if there's enough clamoring that can always be changed. Happy writers are good writers. Unless they're surly drunks, then they're great writers.
- Hopefully people would take this seriously and submit something with substance, but I'm not about to refuse anyone the chance to take a filthier turn. This does raise the issue of style, however. I'm all about having everyone do as they please, but would anyone be interested in working with a certain form each round or week? A rondeau here, a sonnet there, here blank verse, there blank verse, everywhere sestinas. It'd be like Iron Chef America, only with structures instead of secret ingredients. Mmm...Battle Andouille Sausage.
Let me know your thoughts on this, and if you're up for participating. Whatever form this takes, I'm thinking of having it start up at the end of next week, after the St. Patrick's Day competition is over and everyo.....well, maybe I'll wait until the 20th or so, to let everyone nurse their hangovers and wash the vomit and semen out of their hair and pubes.
Oh, and Lisa's not allowed to join in the reindeer games because having one Richard Marx in this world is enough.

Fistfuck Blues
Woke up this mornin'
Was all alone
No note on the pillow
No ringin' phone
My baby left me
She ran real fast
And now I'm cryin' on my bed
With my loose, floppin' ass
Cause I got the blues
Yeah, yeah those fistfuck blues
I got those fisfuck blues pretty darlin'
Lord, Lord, I got 'em bad
I stood and I stumbled
Across the floor
From out my colon
My waste it poured
The muscles weary
From last night's love
I can't forget the snap and slide
Of her two latex gloves
Cause I got the blues
Yeah, yeah those fistfuck blues
I held your lovin' hands inside me, little girl
Yeah, yeah, you done me wrong
*harmonica break*
Can't find no staples
To squeeze me shut
No glue or spackle
To close my butt
I knew the danger
But much too late
Your second hand slipped up inside
And milked my poor prostate
And gave me those fistfuck blues
Yeah, yeah those fistfuck blues
I might need to poop in a bag now, sweet lil' girl
You stretched my cornhole like a rubber band
A rubber band
A rubber band
A fuckin' rubber bayeeyaand
And I can't believe
I miss you so

Bubba, oh Bubba, the checks that you're writing
I fear will not cash 'pon the morrow,
They'll bounce and you'll find yourself drafted and dry,
Three choices, then: beg, steal or borrow.
A fourth option you will elect to pursue
One to keep you afloat, on your feet,
For a throw or a blow you'll trade ass for some cash
Paid to sell yourself out on the street.
Your boasts keep a-silent, for they'll make you poor,
And one day you'll wind up a loose and used whore.

The strumpet's notes ring out
And send my kingly soul a-sighing,
The peal, the wave, the tolling tongue,
Her song alive in dying,
The fingers seek the note again,
The harpstring firmly plucked,
Brava, brava, the roses fall
Exhausted, spent and...
*BANG*
I've been shot!

Your lass lies in her bed today
To work she failed to go
For nightmares haunted her last eve
And caused her grief and woe
She'll strum away for you indeed
It's all she's apt to do
Your rhyme has filled her core with need
Her cheek with scarlet hue

JMG, rad, you're in.
Because I'm a nice guy.
And, well, because I don't have much of a backbone when it comes to drawing lines in the sand for things as inconsequential as internet writing contests.
Anyway, to anyone else expecting me to bend (again), you're out of luck.
The 28...damn, 28...names have been written down, folded and cast into the Red Sox Hat of Muse Fondling, and shall be drawn upon the morrow for first round pairs.
With 28 competitors we're looking at five rounds: 28 - 14 - 8 (7 winners + highest rated loser) - 4 - 2 - victor.
Here's what the schedule for this monster will probably look like:
Rd. 1: pairings/theme posted 3.13 -- posts due by 3.20
Rd. 2: pairings/theme posted 3.23 -- posts due by 3.27
Rd. 3: pairings/theme posted 3.30 -- posts due by 4.3
Rd. 4: pairings/theme posted 4.7 -- posts due by 4.10
Rd. 5: pairings/theme posted 4.10 -- posts due by 4.13
Winner announced 4.17
I figured I'd give everyone a bit more time with the first round, and to allow for the three users who are in the Shamrock Open finals to have time to breathe before submitting something for another competition.

You are, however, the 26th person to have an interest in this.
And 25 is such a terribly odd number.
You're in, Circe, and we're officially good to go.
Not enough people chimed in on either side of the comp/exhibition debate to tilt the scales with an overwhelming majority.
So........we're sticking with the format as is. Competition style. Rounded. Raw and wriggling, just like Gollum loves it.
In the pooper.

This whole thing was thought up with other users in mind. I - of course - post poetry, if it can be called that - all the time, so something like this doesn't really mean as much to me as it may mean to others. I'll post poetry either way.
As such, given the recent request for this becoming an exhibition and not a competition, I feel it's in everyone's interest if we put it to a vote.
Not a list of your preferences and how it'd be good either way, but an actual vote. In fact, if you just want to reply with "competition" or "exhibition," all the better.
A competition allows for a set beginning and end, and pairing up with an adversary tends to bring out the best in someone.
But I can see how it makes it more of a popularity contest, and newer users might lose out simply because they're not as well established as others.
I would argue, hoever, that if their submissions were strong enough it wouldn't much matter if they were new to the show. How else are they supposed to cut their teeth?
An exhibition, of course, levels the playing field and makes everyone equal in the eyes of their god, the Uber public.
"We all float down here..." and all that noise.
However, it basically takes the concept and turns it into a fad day of sorts - Poetry Post Friday or something - and risks having interest in it peter out after a week or so.
But if that's all the interest that everyone really has, why drag it out over a few weeks?
I don't want to make up everyone's mind for them, because, again, it doesn't much matter to me how we do it given that the particulars of the exercise apply to me every time I submit something.

I like this idea. It would be better as an exhibition.
Oh! OH! What I say? What did I say? I wholeheartedly agree with JMG. What's the point of a competition anyway? To stroke a few egos? We should promote poetry and encourage people to post it on Uber. That's one of the reasons I left and hardly ever post on Uber.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
O-tron, I am in complete agreement with these guys. With a contest, some people (ha, me) are gonna get fucked in the first round, and never get at shot at whatever the later themes are. If it's an exhibition, everyone gets a crack at everything.

Inion the Pure reclined on snowbanks, dressed in white
Stunning and immaculate and spotless in the night
Orga'tron the Dirty found her there and flashed a smile
Thinking of how he could use her for his needs so vile
Let's just say that Inion was never Pure again
She succumbed to Orga'tron and learned the ways of men
Spread and bedded, bent and whipped she found she wanted more
Now she's switched her gown for leather, Inion the Whore.

I think you'll find that if everyone has to write about love that there won't be sixteen or twenty submissions that read like shakespeare or a Hallmark card.

I'm trying to stay general in the hopes that people would actually be inspired by a particular theme or feeling and go from there. "Love and death" could easily be done with either "love" or "death" if the writer was so inclined.
Youth, revenge, sacrifice, honor, madness...
I fear this may be where things get sticky.

ok understood. but i'd like to avoid "how do i love thee let me count the ways" gushy love crap. at least make it interesting love and not just gagging on the gooey sweetness of it all. i withdraw all comedic suggestions.

If we really have to use themes, then I don't think you should make using a theme harder by making it as specific as 'love on the rag'. For a start, that would HAVE to be a humourous post, and my writing is simply not funny.

i say no love theme unless it's something like love and sex, love and death, love and animals, love sex and animals, love and prison, love on the rag, that sort of thing. love and comedy only, no love alone as a theme. i'm gonna get that suggestion shot down quick.
we could also all have to pick a song and rewrite it at something else. or we all get the same song and rewrite it in a theme.

post titties today, yes?
---
I've got to get my Shamrock Open thing (written and) posted today, so today's out.
I'm thinking I'll get the bracket together and all that at the end of the week. Originally I was thinking about having the first round submissions due on 3/17 but I defintely don't want people posting on a Friday when everyone's thinking about the weekend or not around to rate.
So we're going with a 3/20 due date, which means that I may just wait until next Monday to post the matchups and theme assignment.
If the Shamrock Open wasn't finishing up next week I'd have the first round end next Tues. or Wed., but as it stands I don't want to double any of the competitors up with deadlines if they're participating in both events.
Anyone have any suggestions for the themes/emotions that I'll draw for each round?
I can cover the general ground - love, loss, heartache, grief, death, joy, ecstacy, etc. but if anyone has a suggestion I'll certainly add it to the pool.

Honorable monday wife -

I imagine this means that I've 'arrived,' if this sort of drama is following me around like stink on an unwashed dangle.

I just wrote this:
since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you;
wholly to be a fool
while Spring is in the world
my blood approves,
and kisses are a far better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry
--the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which says
we are for eachother: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraph
And death i think is no parenthesis
No, I'm kidding.
------------------
On this note, I wrote this:
============
There's a thick-set man with frog eyes standing at the door
And a little bald man with wingnut ears waiting in the car
Well Robert Moore passed the frog-eyed man as he walked into the bar
And Betty Coltrane she jumped under her table
"What's your pleasure?" asked the barman, he had a face like boiled meat
"There's a girl called Betty Coltrane that I have come to see,"
"Well I ain't seen that girl round here for more than a week,"
And Betty Coltrane she a-hid beneath the table
Well then in came a sailor with mermaids tattooed on his arms
Followed by the man with wingnut ears that was waiting in the car
Well Robert Moore sensed trouble, he'd seen it coming from afar
And Betty Coltrane she gasped beneath the table
Well the sailor said, "I'm lookin' for my wife they call her Betty Coltrane,"
And the frog-eyed man said, "That can't be, that's my wife's maiden name,"
And the man with wingnut ears said, "Hey, I married her back in Spain,"
And Betty Coltrane crossed herself beneath the table
Well Robert Moore stepped up and said, "That woman is my wife,"
And he drew a silver pistol and a wicked bowie knife,
And he shot the man with wingnut ears straight between the eyes
And Betty Coltrane she moaned under the table
Well the frog-eyed man jumped at Robert Moore, who stabbed him in the chest
And as Mr Frog Eyes died he said, "Betty, you're the girl that I love best,"
And the sailor pulled a razor, Robert blasted him to bits,
"And Betty, I know you're under the table"
"Well have no fear," said Robert Moore, "I do not want to hurt you,
Never a woman did I love near half as much as you,
You're the blessed sun to me, girl, and you are the sacred moon,"
And Betty shot his legs out from under the table
Well Robert Moore went down heavy with a crash upon the floor
And over to his thrashing body Betty Coltrane she did crawl
She put the gun to the back of his head and pulled the trigger once more
And blew his brains out all over the tables
Well Betty stood up, shook her head, a-waved the smoke away
Said, "I'm sorry, Mr Barman, to leave your place this way,"
And she emptied out their wallets, she said "I'll collect my severance pay,"
Then she winked and threw a dollar on the table
Yeah

haikus don't need to follow the 5-7-5 format. that whole idea is due to a mistranslation.
for example:
fishtails
like explosions
halos in water
is still a haiku even though it goes 2-4-5
and even though I'm against the whole competition idea, i still want to be a part of it.

- It will be a competition, complete with rounds and the like. I'll get a better idea of how many rounds at the end of the day.
With that in mind: IF ANYONE ELSE WANTS IN ON THIS, LET ME KNOW BY 11:59PM EST (TONIGHT)
- Each round will have a particular emotion or theme attached to it, from which the competitors will draw inspiration, and will address.
If anyone wants to suggest certain instances that they'd like to see, by all means...
- If no one's going to object, I'll post matchups early next week and have the first entries due by Monday the 20th.
I'd have them due by Thurs. the 16th, but that's a day after the last round of the St. Pat's competition, and I've noticed that some of the writers in that are interested in doing this.
In fairness to them, we'll wait.
I think the only thing I'm up in the air about is the feel of each round (having a style attached to each round). Caes, if this IS how it goes down of course I'll provide detailed explanations and examples for everyone to learn from . I think it'd be worthwhile to pursue this, but I also want everyone to feel comfortable.
Anyone have a favorite form that they'd like to add to the potential list?

Bubba sneaks some poet pud from Lise
As she sits reclined beside the Thames
Penning prose as poor as pennies
Scribbled down on pages many
Empty as the clothes inside a grave
Dry as peeled lips of the deceased
There she rests and bares her box for Bub
Seeking men to give the time of day
"See me posture for attention
Though I lack depth and dimension
I'll do what you want, just kindly stay,
Stay and let me think it's me you love."

well, GOOD poetry anyways - shit that I wanna read.
I tried getting Haiku Post Monday off the ground last year, but limited success.
People here just prefer the prose format, and I think it's an Uber-genetic disposition.
Whenever I read the 'New Yorker', the poems that are in there are usually boring and stupid, and THOSE are supposed to be good.
I don't think encouraging emo-type posts (cause that's the easiest shit to write poetry about) is what Uber needs.

I was just joking Thorns. You would both beat me in this contest and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
ghola- erm..... I think that you're a nice young lady. I don't remember what the hell I was going to type here in response to whatever it was that you wrote that I also don't remember because I just can't get myself into any semblance of a functioning human today. You have nice cats.
There, that should take care of everything nicely.
I'm going to go brew myself a nice mug of tea.

"A fuckin' rubber bayeeyaand..." Indeed. I enjoyed your rambling at the top of your post; I'm not used to seeing much of anything from you that isn't in verse form.
I'm intimidated to commit to anything that involves forced writing, deadlines, or competitions, for I am not a writer. And since I'm not, I don't even know what to suggest in terms of the form it should take. I'll vote majority on this one I guess- which is scary when so many that will show interest are sure to be wicked good.
"I can't promise I'll try, but I promise I'll TRY to try". Just for you, O.

All the more reason to get off my ass and get whatever software and hardware I'd need to record the thing myself, I guess.

I too would like to know what Capt Thorns uses.
===========================================================
I refer you to http://www.ubersite.com/m/79919#1712803 - I pretty much explain how I recorded Shenanigan Pie, and all of my subsequent music posts, in that vicinity. Granted, my methods are old school - but hey, it still works.

The point of this was not to create something so that I may smite the lesser writers of Uber with my posts and laugh at them as they cascade into mass graves below the birch trees. The point is for anyone who wants to write poetry and, for whatever reason, feel that they can't share it here, to come out of their shell a little.

Damn my mouth (and hands) get ahead of my brain sometimes. What I meant was there would be only one round because O-Man and I are the only two that seem to post poetry on any sort of regular basis.

That's kind of why I'm hoping a lot of people participate in this, so they can show that can too.

I disagree ghola, he should participate.
What the hell is wrong with you people? Here, and on the post where it was originally proposed, there are these comments about him not participating. Because it would be unfair. Or because he would win hands down...

I was kidding. I didn't think he'd take it seriously.
Obviously, O should play. What would the point be otherwise???

retitle the contest "make otron choke on his own poetic justice" or some such title that implies us stomping him to death on his own verbal turf.

Fine then, I would like to declare that during the next UberMadness the following people can't participate:
Bickerstaff
Snark
thecaes
Circe
Coyote
jack11058
helbling
And a bunch of others whose user names I can't remember right now. But especially these people.
Come on folks, a little competition is good for the soul. Man the fuck up people.
No offense is intended towards you personally ghola, you kick untold amounts of ass.
I just felt a need to state this here again and get it out.
I guess I don't even have to hit the submit button, as I've used up all the concern I can possibly muster up on the subject, but I'm going to anyway

That's what I've been debating since the idea crossed me.
I'll leave that up to the participants, too.
And I don't know exactly what the competition will be like yet, which is why I decided to post this and see what everyone's preferences were. Stay tuned, Zelda lover.
No, inion, I don't want people to look stupid because of this. MyTeeOne mentioned a desire to post poetry, but cited a hesitation born from assuming anything that wasn't "O-produced" would be met with -2s. Hopefully with something like a competition or exhibition framing the submissions, people would be free to post without fear of getting laughed out of the house because "we don't like poetry here."

I think it sounds like an interesting idea.
I'm not really sure what to suggest, but I'll agree that assigning themes would be better than assigning titles.

I'm not sure if I'm in or not. Will have to wait and see exactly what you plan on doing.
Sounds interesting though.

I'm in. I like the idea of general themes over titles. Maybe using something as open as "love" is a little too loose, but I'm game for that too if it's the way it shakes out.
If there are enough interested participants you should do set structures per round. If it's fairly limited in the number of players, it should be left open as to what structure you want to use.
