voted - found it QUITE an easy decision in the end - there's a pool of about 5 from which to choose a serious winner IMO

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

I broadly agree with the general trend of the results, except for my poem accidentally getting top billing, and acoleuthic's poem getting shut out.

congrats to the triumverate
I agonized over table vs casual, glad I went with the darkhorse tho, poems about furries require care & recognition

oh hi everyone, thanks for many kind words said about my...er...words. fwiw, i didn't vote? reading over all of them again, i think i'd go with "We never go downtown." but my moods change a lot, thus explaining why i didn't vote in the first place.

That is fucking incredible.

Awesome. Am I correct in presuming that you only used letters that were in the title?
― jaymc, Saturday, 7 August 2010 04:07 (thirteen years ago) link
the lines (and title) are all anagrams of each other
― lene lovage (elmo argonaut), Saturday, 7 August 2010 04:08 (thirteen years ago) link
