I lean heavily toward the latter. You WON!!! Now, you get to be published along with the other WINNERS ~ and for only $19.95, you can get a copy of the book, and call yourself a published poet

! Send them something of idiocy and see how it goes. Let us know.

To assist you with your pondering, you could help him out by trying Google. You'll probably have to sort through a lot of links before you come to one of much benefit, but the contests seem to be ongoing, so there's no real deadline. I think your search would be futile if you focused on his stuff. You're really going to have to go beyond if you really want to help a friend.
