Barely two days have passed since we began our contest and the steemians haven't disappointed! It is incredible what people pulled from either the poem, the image, or both!

Here are the current entries in the contest! Visit them and give them some love!

Here is your prompt/inspiration!

Quiet contemplation
in humanities surround
screeching silence upward rising
with the falling of the ground

Cold and reverberating shivers
sweat and icy palms
chills from spine to chest
beating hearts
no calm

Stepping forward half and quarter paces
for every backwards glance
sideways weaving structures
visions blur and dance

Clicking clacking ticking sounds
from around each winding bend
omnious guiding siren songs
lull you to your end

Another poem?

A continuation?

A short story?

A photograph?

A drawing?

whatever it is you want to create, do it!

The winner will be selected in a week for a prize of 5 Steem! Please link your entry here when you are done and use the tag #ussminnowprize so we can find it!

We can't wait to see what beautiful things you create! <3
