- Reposted by Viridine LiteraryMy #poem "Host" will appear in the next issue of @viridinelit.bsky.social, themed around identity. This is a poem is about classed and gendered invisibility, about being seen just enough to be useful. Grateful to the editors for seeing something in this piece. #skypoems #poetrycommunity

- "Frannie is making a name for herself dancing till dawn in a bar. Mother just stares at the wallpaper walls, safely contained in her jar." - 'Geography', by Bob McAfee The meter here is perfect. When so much rhyming poetry feels contrived, 'Geography' is a spectacular example of rhymes done well!
- Thanks to everyone who submitted! We're aiming to get all responses out over the coming week ✨️
- Love seeing the submissions come in as I'm reading them! This is the final call. I'm gonna close the form at midnight BST if I'm still awake. Full disclosure, I may well pass out before that, in which case I'll close the form as soon as I wake up tomorrow morning.
- Just over 24 hours to go until we close subs for Issue 03! All categories still welcome, but we'd especially love a few more essays or reviews.
- Submissions are open! Theme: Identity Be yourself. Truly, wholly, unapologetically. Submit: forms.gle/eNtGTASKqUNn...
