April 28

Rabbit: A Journal of Nonfiction Poetry — always fascinating — is calling for submissions on the theme of Archive: 'How can we, as poets, return to the archive and reanimate voices and lives silenced through time and the resolve of official record-makers?' Closes April 28. Check the guidelines here and consider this: 'Name a poem that you like that draws on/relates to archival research/thinking and why you like it.' That's got you thinking! Send brief response with your poems and bio. Guest editors are Anne Casey and Jason Wee.
