Winepoetics' Summer Pleasure Poetry Contest [Aug 4 entry]
[US/world]:
Deadline: August 30, 2005
No Submission Fees
Email submissions within the body of email to GalateaTen @ aol.com
Submit 1-2 poems to a "pleasure-able" poetry contest sponsored by The Chatelaine's Poetics and Meritage Press. No restrictions on form or interpretations of "pleasure."
Members of OENOPHILES FOR POETRY (a for-profit, private organization) will judge the entrants -- probably during a meeting while they're also judging some wines (so consider that fair warning if, uh, that's something you need to be warned about). The poet whose poem most pleases the judges will receive wine (see end of this post) and the following poetry or poetry/art collections:
