The Hottest Poetry Submissions

This is where you get the inside scoop on how to have the greatest poetry submissions on Poetry Vibe. I think that you will find this to be an interesting guide only because it is so simple. The one thing that we know about poetry is that it has a sound. And that is the sound of a flatline.

You know the sound. It’s the one that you see about in the television shows where there is a patient in a bed and he has that high powered piece of equipment that is monitoring his heart. It looks like everything is going fine and then all you hear is a flatline. A constant single tone with a line on the monitor that moves straight at steady pace like it was in a marathon. That is the point where you put your heart on the line. You have saved nothing for the trip back because the words you have expressed in your poem are from your heart. They could not have come from anywhere else.

If you try to fake it, its like that little part of you that lies is trying to survive. Trying to mask the truth of who you really are. What we want to read is the truth. The truth of who you are, regardless of who that may be. We need to hear it. We need to bring truth into the world not only because we want to read it but because we also want the world to read it.

You have to ready for the announcement about the poetry contests. When you see the first announcement, be ready for the beginning of the month because that is when the contest will start. We want people to go hard and heavy and to let the words flow. You have from the beginning of the month to the end of the month to capture the words that will move someone. We believe that everyone can make a difference and that people can be changed by the words they read.

Make sure that you keep entering poetry because the more poems you enter, the greater chance you have of winning. That is the one thing we find interesting and disturbing about the poems we read. The more you enter, the more you have a change of expressing the words that you need to express. But we have also found that there are those poets that enter one poem that comes from a place so deep that it completely amazes us. We told you this would be simple.

See you at the next poetry contest.
