Theme: Desire - Poetry
Ends on
If writing is all about tension, desire is the fuel. Desire doesn’t pause to contemplate etiquette or question what’s possible. Desire complicates, evolves, produces triumphs and tragedies. Desire moves forward. And that’s the sort of writing we’re after. We want complex, ambitious writing with tension and innovation to spare. Deadline 10/15.
