Protest Poems Org is inviting submissions of political poetry.

www.protestpoems.org.

We are looking for excellent poetry that just happens to shout about current political and humanitarian concerns.

Please be aware that our interest in bipartisan and US- or Euro-centered politics is limited. For example, we think it’s much more interesting to contemplate the affect that the oil industry has on the human rights of Nigerians living along the pipelines, than the affect it has on our wallets. Nuanced issues are interesting. Partisan campaigning is not.

Our journal is updated often in order to keep a steady flow of relevant protests, but this does not mean that we are less selective or compromise in regard to the quality of work we publish. Please send your best.

Paste your poems (max 3 one-page poems) in the body of an email and send to write@protestpoems.org. If necessary, you can send a single .doc or .rtf file containing all the poems you are submitting poems.
