poem-st (that's poem and post)

three minutes ago i sent an email
to o sweet flowery roses
and you should, too
because you can get a whole shit ton of bling if you do before april 1st and you make sure you send in a good
poem.

Gee, wasn't that purty? Seriously, there's a literal bag of jewels up fo' grabs at O Sweet Flowery Roses. All you have to do is write about TEMPTATION. Who knows, maybe you could be the winner of the DJANGO (the Dazzlingly Jewel'd And, Naturally, Gloriously Official) award...

O Sweet Flowery Roses

I'd like to take a sec to introduce y'all to O Sweet Flowery Roses, a BLORNAL (blog-journal) that is, as they say, dedicated to preserving the fun in poetry. To paint you a picture, this is the sort of wonderful place that is literally giving out a bag of jewels as a special prize for their DJANGO award. Which, by the way, has a submission deadline of April 1st so if you're keen on getting your mitts on those jewels, get your poems in there quickly! OSFR represents a lot of the good things going on outside of the world of extremely selective literary journals. While they have their place, it's good to know that there are also warm & inviting friends of poetry out there looking to find poem from all sorts of people.

Be sure to also have a look through their archives for some real interesting reads!

I'm going to be off on a trip down to CT and then to PA so no updating for a bit. I'll check in when I can.
