Vote now!

If you've ever looked at the results of a poetry competition and thought "that's all wrong", then here's your chance to influence the outcome of one. The shortlisted poems in this year's Times Literary Supplement Poetry Competition are here, and you can vote for your favourite. I've had a quick scan through, and already have an idea which one I favour, but I'll read them all a few more times before I make a decision. Enjoy!

I think this is a splended idea - a sort of X-factor style judging. Long overdue in my view. Thanks for the link Matt.

Yes, apart from anything else, it gives you more idea of what the winning poem was up against than is generally the case.
