Poetry Contest!

Wow, it's been a while since my last post. As usual nothing is really going on, except I found a poetry contest that excepts high school participants, and I just entered my latest poem in it! The grand prize is $2500 I think. That's a lot of money for someone my age. And since I know for a fact that you're wondering, I'm posting the poem with this entry so you can read it too! Oh, and all of the winning poems in the contest will get published, so I'm crossing all of my fingers.

Savior
The bruised,
Neglected,
Beaten,
And damned.
Will you save them?
Can you save them?
These lost souls that have no hope?
That are shown no love, no kind word?

I think if you so desired,
You could stand to their aid.
To help them find some heart, some hope.
So I ask of you again.
When thinking and looking,
At the
Bruised,
Neglected,
Beaten,
And damned,
Can you save them?
Will you save them?
