@ Profuhrer / SheWrites/ ihuzimora/ kimberlywest

Does kimberlywest's poem have anything in common with MLk's " I have a dream" ?

Trying to pick a winner
The content of the poem isn't exactly the same as MLK's speech but she made the costly mistake of choosing the same title and using lines from the speech.

Technically, that flags it as plagiarism.

Thanks bro, your words are actually kinder than those accusing me of going to copy MLK's speech.

I read that speech for the first time yesterday and I almost screamed when I saw the similarity, I'm usually not the type to read leadership quotes, speeches and poems, I'd rather bury my self in physics textbooks or read stories online.
Thanks for this. Next time, after writing, I will crosscheck before posting, so I don't end up making the same mistake.

Wanderlustafrik, please when is the next competition? If it runs like this, It will still be nice.

Hello writers,

I love your works and most of it helps me through the day.

I decided to give ten thousand Naira to the best original poem of 200 words...not more than 200 words and not less.

Post your work here and let it be an original work.

Winner will be decided by the number of likes he/she gets on his post.

Open to other ways of suggesting a winner but I think that the above suggestion is the most transparent.

Thanks for participating.

Prize is 10,000 Naira. Will be wired to winners account or given cash depending on the winners preference.

Competition ends on Monday 21st August 2017
Just received d money... thanks

Travelling Road

Travelling road without end
smooth dark
like a burnt offering
how i wish you were like the bosom of an Africa bride
soft and tender at every touch
But at every turn and bend
your scaling skin gallop our buttock high

Travelling road without end
what paintings lines your belly ?
A zebra patch or a Tiger stribes
running far as i journed

Travelling road without end
Are you the one that eat up the wary sojouner ?
who's skull spatted your dark burnt skin
spilling it content and painting your hide in red ink
or he gave heed to the graveyard call
and carelessly slipped

Travelling road without end
Yield my call

Giving a scope would have been better but here you go.
