Tam’s Pick: @eclectictracy
I loved the roller coaster of feelings this piece evoked. I felt like I was in a dream, in which everything is amplified and sensations become blurred. The way synesthesia is used throughout the poem--particularly the writer’s use of taste and sound to describe visual aspects of the scene--adds an emotional weight that is effective in eliciting a tangible sense of dread.
Note: This week’s responses to the prompt blew me away. There were so many excellent pieces; it was incredibly difficult to choose.
Honorable Mentions: @nafisalivestowrite, @lzlabs, @iceintheattic, @crowned-in-stone, @fakesurprise, @cruxymox​, @thespiandrummer
Laura’s Pick: @iceintheattic
I was captivated when I read lines like “Red whispered like the aches in my joints” and “I saw yellow banging in the distance”. I can see and hear both of those things occurring even though they aren’t the way people typically think of aches or how the colour yellow behaves. Well done. 
Honorable Mentions: @burningmoonanchor, @cruxymox, @the-wordslinger, @eclectictracy, @thespiandrummer, @nafisalivestowrite @aubriestar, @themostawesomebitch
(I second Tam’s note about how many good pieces there were this week.)
Thanks to everyone who participated. Stay tuned for the next prompt, which will be posted shortly.

Promptlyrefined: week 12 (recap)
What a delightful week of poetry, you guys really outdid yourself. I’m not even going to bother to pick the weekly best because you’re all winners in my book. Besides, it was supposed to be just a little game for some poetic fun. Some of you have mentioned how it got you out of a slump, and maybe there’ve also been some bloggers partaking that normally wouldn’t write poetry who now tried it. Either way I am over the moon. And I know at least one person who’d adore seeing this many pomegranate mentions. Without further ado, this week’s poets in order of appearance: 
@mrsninac-blog (poem) @wanderinginaseaofwords (poem) @wordslifeandthings (poem) @dustseeker (poem) @electricarmchair (poem) @rachtiouspalmer (poem) @elementalalchemist (poem) @mjao7 (poem) @waadtariq (poem) @thespiandrummer (poem) @kixxie (poem) @heartofmuse (poem) @louinspace (poem) @poetbitesback (poem) @cruxymox (poem) @juxtapos-ition (poem) @lzlabs (poem) @drearydaffodil (poem) @seagulls-den (poem) @hangingoninquietdesparation (poem) @quietdissidentlyricist (poem) @gracebabcockwrites (poem) @irlloveletters (poem) @warxpunkxmonk (poem) @journalidiot (poem) @mysublimejourney (poem) @thewanderingsaylor (poem) @jasongrabowski (poem) @mleighsquickspot (poem) @autumnsunshine10 (poem) @avolitorial (poem) @fakesurprise (poem) @sweet-poesy (poem) @thewanderingsaylor (poem)
Thank you all for participating! There will be another poetry game in a couple of weeks (I like to change up things), but I certainly won’t wait as long as I did between this one and the last one.
