About

If, as Philip Larkin says, poetry preserves the memory of the human race, we believe that sweet, smoky, gritty memories of scooting boots across dusty dancefloors in honkey tonks deserve to be part of that record. We are looking for recollections of love found and of love lost. We hope to read about dancing and mechanical bulls, crusty bartenders and jukeboxes whining out songs full of pedal-steel guitar. Of course, the collection won’t be complete until we have at least a few crying-in-your-beer poems too.
