Update: Submissions for our winter poetry contest are now closed. Below are our winners, whose work will be featured in our upcoming issue:
First Place: Elizabeth Upshur’s poem, “How to Tend a Zombie: Prose Poem.”
Second Place: Michael Quigg’s poem, “Panoptic Gallery of Living Art.”
Third Place: Lilly Seaver’s mixed-media poem, “Brain Washed In My Sleep.”
Each of these pieces are distinct and uniquely fantastic. We are excited to share them in our winter issue.
