"Welcome"
Familiarity
And belonging
Are two very different things.
You can have your favorite straitjacket
That seat on the bus you always go to
Insults worn so smooth
Through repetitive use
That their meaning is blunted.
You can stand in the corner
Facing the wall
And think about what you've done
And it can be comforting
same as yesterday
And most likely tomorrow.
But when you start to get an inkling
Of where you belong
It can be like boarding a spaceship
And traveling
Across the inky black ocean
In which stars
Meteors
Comets
Black holes and quasars
Swim like fish
And arriving
On a completely different
Fucking
Planet
And thinking:
I'm home

Took a while to get through all the entries but it was thoroughly enjoyable! I hope this becomes a regular contest so I can tell others about it :)
It took even more time to decide who to vote for because there was so much talent in so many different areas that it is quite hard to compare. But in the end I tried to spread it around across the different categories:
@bengy 5 points
@melissakellie 3 points
@ran.koree 1 points
@bennettitalia CREATIVITY
@branhmusic ORIGINALITY
@loop.cirkus TECHNICALITY
Thank you for the support :)
There are a few in #teamaustralia in this contest, which is always good to see. You have a lovely voice and we'd love more people to hear it :)
Thanks :)
Thanks for the support! It is hard to compare across categories...
I'm glad you think that way @plushzilla the plan is to make a standalone app for the contest in a near future to make things more easier for contestants and moderators ✌
I think along with the Information Finding Championship organized by @apolymask this is a really good space to interact with other Steemians, learn about different things and see all the talent that is out there! There should be a big sponsor for this type of activity :)
And I like the way you organized the voting system for it as well, but interesting how different people see things in their own ways.
Thanks @plushzilla :)
LOVE the origami out of flower petals!
I wish we could do the 5/3/1 vote for each of the category so we can recognize the people with multiple talents, but the rules only allow one vote for each person... you have a great voice and I really didn't expect to enjoy the poetry reading so much, but then your singing and the artwork were also very good! Keep it up :)
Thanks
I loved how you were able to come up with a song that weaves an experience perfectly into the words and rhythm, and the subject matter was quite original too. Well done!

Thanks for the vote! I still want my Tchaikovsky though!
thank you woman :D
This has been an incredible contest and I want to thank @ivan.atman for giving everyone an opportunity to engage with other talented members of the Steemian community. I want to thank the people that have voted for me but actually anyone who has taken the time to submit an entry, looked at other people's work and voted should all get a pat on their back!
Not sure how hard it is to do all the calculations and judging, but next time I am happy to set up a Google Form or Type Form to help add all the votes :)
Google form is not a bad idea, but it's results are not public so everyone can see the results, in a near future we are working on a app for the contest where all will be public and simplified, thank you for the words and support @plushzilla ✌
It's unfortunate that Steemit doesn't have some of the tools built into other social media platforms, but people also suggested that I use Google forms to collect the information (i.e. paste link to the post) while still publishing the results on the post. I'd love to be involved in the app because I have contributed to utopian.io in terms of user interface design and improvements so it is a good way to put some of my skills to use if it helps :)
@plushzilla The plan is to make the voting user friendly with an open/public chart that show the results on the iTalent app, we are actually in the lookout for a UI designer, if you want to contribute you can contact me on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/ivan.atman15
Oh man... so many great entries! This was seriously tough. Following all of you :)

But you can still vote for the finalists and enter the voting lottery (where you can win 10 STEEM if random lottery software chooses you), the finalist announcement post will be posted today so you can see on who can you vote.
