P – Cæsura Seeks Poetry with the Theme: Reset
Cæsura 2022: Reset
The Call: Blinded by fractured light through the broken view of a kaleidoscope that has twisted our senses into a cloud of fever dreams; we reach, strive for a pattern of hope, a tessellation that integrates all our broken parts into a creation of beauty. Together we replant the seeds. We reset our gaze on the intricate and fertile patterns of empathy and love.
The editors will judge from blind lists to create the two unique versions of Cæsura Reset, the print version and the online version.
NEW and UNPUBLISHED poets, every year we recruit, appreciate, and publish your work. Please add the comment “Not yet published” to your cover page.
Everyone may submit up to 3 literary works
We reserve first-print publication rights and the right to post work for publication on our website. Previously published work, in print or online, will not be considered.
We are partial to poems of 32 lines or fewer, but make exceptions for longer poems that are too good to pass up.
We prefer prose of 320 words, but will consider anything less than 1000.
Longer works of any style or format will be considered for the print edition but are more likely to appear online.
