West Florida Public Libraries is looking for poems that are bad, really bad. None of that lovely as a tree stuff.
The WFPL is holding a Bad Poetry Contest for middle and high school students through April 30 in honor of National Poetry Month.
Here’s what to do:
1. Write the worst poem you can! It must be original to you to be the “worst,” so don’t copy anyone else.
2. Submit your poem in-person at one of seven library branches or online using this form before April 30. If you submit at a library, be sure to include your name, your grade, and a usable phone number on your submission.
