Glory- Poetry Contest
Fifty times whipped,
a command from the Cap'n
Fifty times whipped
you could hear the leather snappin
But the scars on his back keep him from breaking,
Scars on his back keep tears from falling
Fifty times whipped,
though it's not his first time
Fifty times whipped
And his teeth start to grind
But the scars on his back keep him from breaking,
Scars on his back keep tears from falling
Fifty times whipped,
instead of being killed
Fifty times whipped,
Just for a meal
But the scars on his back keep him from breaking,
Scars on his back keep tears from falling

The Silence of Hatred - A poem by Xavier Honre
The Silence of Hatred
***It's the silence we speak that allows hatred to dominate our lives***
Hatred, a sound of silence
That fills the worlds ears,
Damning those who speak out
Against the wide spread fears.
It's gays, it's blacks, and Arabs too,
That are blamed for life today,
And people think that killing them
Will make it go away.
But truth be told, it's none of them,
For they are not at fault,
Fear has caused this life today,
This is the result.
So further more we push away
Our neighbors and their lives,
Hoping that we'll save ourselves,
Regardless of who dies.

YV Contest - PS Man
Batman may control the crime in Gotham but PS Man (problem solving) has to tackle even greater things, he has to help you solve all your problems. As you can imagine, he does not always succeed. The communities today on both the global and local sense need him to overcome conflicts. How to find him? Just take a trip into the frontal lobe of the brain. Though he resides in the brain, he tackles problems much greater and outside his home.

Caught in the Act: Random Acts of Kindness Photo Contest
My idea for a contest would be a Random Acts of Kindness Contest.
Everyone pull out your cameras and don't let them out of your sight. In this contest, GenV members need to record a random act of contest by taking a picture of it then submitting the photo to genv.net. There are only a few rules:
1. The picture can't be staged. The whole point is to help people realize that there really are lots of simple ways to make a difference. Staging them defeats that purpose.
