Beware that poetry competition is a scam...
They make pretty much every entry a finallist. Then they publish the poems in this low quality book in tiny print. Then they get all the 'finallists' to buy the book. That's how they make money.
There have been worse poetry scams where they have had 'winners' with fake award ceremonies and people have been hugely ripped off.
Just look up poetry.com scam in a search engine, and find a real poerty competiton to enter :)

If you're right, most people would know about it. And I don't know anything about it. But it scares me. Scams. Hey, Light, post your poem!
