CALL FOR MANUSCRIPTS: poetry and prose related to poetry. for 2014 and 2015 issues

POETRYREPAIRS seeks submissions that are evocative, informative, rich with meaning.
A confessional (about "me") should none-the-less be about all of us; An "I" is a persona, never the author/poet reporting an actual dream or diary entry.

Visit poetryrepairs.com to search for fine art, fine entertainment, explorethe philosophy of publishing, provincial.regional.nationsl.international culture, the ubiquitous and silent literary critique, criticism, theory, and praxis. Here will be E books, commentary, education, in the plain language of essays, interviews, opinion, reviews and as ever that most treacherous language of poems, by poets whose poetry and prose demonstrates which international writers are writing for a the global creative community.

POETRYREPAIRS wants its readers to gather with friends, to recite poetry over food and wine, to debate its messages, and to light candles in darkened places!

poetryrepairs.com invites your essay on poetry, or on a poet or poets, and, also, essays on all things related to poetry, its theory and its practice. Or, simply comment on the poems here at poetryrepairs.com
