Wergle Flomp Poetry Contest
Feb. 8th, 2009 11:16 amMostly I just like the name, but the Wergle Flomp Humor Poetry Contest tickles my fancy: submit an absurd poem to a "vanity contest," as a joke, then also submit it to Wergle Flomp.
I think they should give their award to the most outrageous poem that WINS a vanity contest, but anyway... cheers. I have a latent subversive streak when it comes to making too much of poetry, despite being a highfalutin' bard.
I believe I tormented Mrs. Cope (English Teacher) once by giving her a batch of haikus my Random Basho Generator had created on my old Apple ][, just to tweak her nose, because (as I expected) she immediately started interpreting the profound meanings in each haiku. I was resisting poetry analysis as a colossal waste of time, because I was suspicious that it was a process of projection.
