All Six Finalists Will Be Published in

Prose poem, rhyme, free verse, sestina, haiku...doesn't
matter what it's called as long as it moves us! We
welcome work from widely published poets as well as  
newcomers. Everyone gets a chance. Why wait?

Someday you'll be lying
there in a nice trance
and suddenly a hot
soapy brush will be
applied to your face
--it'll be unwelcome
--someday the
undertaker'll shave you

— Jack Kerouac, Orizaba 210 Blues
