Poetsre: is an open Blog for the publication of our "kitchen table" poems--prose or verse--as well as photos and all things pertaining to art. It's administered by Slant Light Poetry of Brunswick for use by the Brunswick Community--which we take to include your friend in Leesburg and your cousin in Des Moines.
Submit the first time (or learn more) by email to Slant Light at poetsrebrunswick@gmail.com. If you are interested in submitting regularly we can make you an "author" which allows you to post directly to the Blog, and gives you the option to have new Blog posts sent to you. The Blog permits 100 authors, a number we're not likely to use up.
Kids poems and art are welcome. It can mean a lot to a kid to get the affirmation of getting a poem or work of art posted. In the interest of internet safety, we encourage kids to use a pen name. Making one up can be a kick all by itself. ( We're considering a Kids Poetry Contest with some modest prizes for different age groups soon.)
If you want to open the Blog to past items, you can click on a category in the "Index of Labels" in the right side column. Anyone is free to comment on any post. Click on "comments" (which says "no comments" if there haven't been any yet) at the bottom of the post. Your quick comment, just to acknowledge having seen a post, helps keep the Blog active.
It would be cool if there was a small City in America where regular people sat at the kitchen table sometimes and wrote, in their own voices, of their own lives and times. With that objective, there is no such thing as a "bad" poem.
And stay in touch with us on the Slant Light Poets of Brunswick facebook page, too!
