Poetry Temp Closed As you might guess, we publish poems consisting of a single sentence. Here are the rules. Start with an uppercase letter. End with a terminal punctuation mark. But don’t die. Semicolons are discouraged, especially when used to merge what should be multiple sentences into one long sentence. Any line format is acceptable, but there must be at least one line break. We will take some long sentences but, ideally, a speaker should be able to recite the poem in one breath.Dates:Will be open to submissions from 01 October 2026* (approx. 14 days from now) through 31 October 2026.1Audience:Open to a broad Audience.Genres: GeneralLengths: Poem: 2 lines or more; Up to 4 pieces.Poetry Forms:Open to all/most Forms, including: Prose poetry.Styles:Open to all/most Styles, including: Literary.Topics: Open to all/most Topics.Payment:No monetary payment No monetary payment.Submissions:Method: Submittable submission manager.
