Write an Ubi sunt Poem

Poetry Contest
Ubi sunt is a type of poetry that reflects on transience and mortality.

Modern song examples of an Ubi sunt are: Pete Seeger's "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" or Don McLean's "American Pie" or Paul Simon's "Mrs. Robinson."

Write a poem that somehow incorporates the topic of life's transience. The poem does not have to be specifically about the topic and creative approaches are welcomed. But contest voters will be asked to consider the topic when making a choice for a winner.

The contest winner will win half of the prize pool of 72.00 member dollars. In this contest at least 2 submissions must be made for the vote to begin.

Deadline: Contest is closed. Deadline was Friday, July 8, 2022.
