Honorable Mention, Sonnet Crown, PbtSea
I learned that my sonnet crown, Takedown, was one of two honorable mentions in the Poetry by the Sea sonnet crown contest judged by Alicia Stallings. That poem started as a single sonnet about wrestling coaches, which is all I originally meant it to be. I brought it here and decided to go long after your critique. Thanks for the tune up on that one.
Julia Griffin came in first in crowns and first, also, in the single sonnet contest! She must be stopped!!!!!
The submissions were anonymous.
Other friends were similarly ranked.
David Rosenthal received an honorable mention and a short list mention for single sonnet.
Catherine Chandler and Dawn Manning where shortlisted in the crown category.
The other honorable mention in crowns went to Robert Rubin.

Is this the poem about about a wrestling lesson where the student is picked on by a drunken coach? I remember it attracted a lot of comment, and some detailed technical discussion of wrestling terminology. Are you able to provide a link?
An honourable mention from Alicia Stallings is a proud moment. And I think we have to accept that Julia Griffin is unstoppable, a force of nature.
Well done
Joe

Thanks John, Fliss and Joe.
Yes, Joe, that's the one. It's not online anywhere. I am going to try to make that happen. ~,:^)
I know that Alicia is interested in rule breaking, and this crown breaks a few. I'd like to read the others. Patricia Smith has some very good sonnet crowns.
