The Poet’s Billow, an organization dedicated to increasing the exposure of poetry, is accepting submission for the Bermuda Triangle Prize – the deadline is March 15th.
The Bermuda Triangle Prize is given to three poems on a theme from up to three different poets.
Current Theme: Nature (2017-2018 Theme)
Nature—human nature, the natural world, or anti-nature—we are open to interpretations.
Each winning poem will receive $50, for a total cash prize of $150. The poems will be published and displayed in the Poet’s Billow Literary Art Gallery. Up to five finalists will be considered for publication.
We nominate for the Pushcart Prize, Best of the Net Anthology, and The Best New Poets Anthology. See our guidelines to submit.
