CALL FOR POEMS!
POEMS ON THE COMET – SPRING 2021
WHEN IT’S OVER
Again this spring we are putting poems on the Comet, our regional transit system buses. Past projects have included poems on the stories of our city, poems about our rivers, poems about time. This spring, let’s think about what to do when it’s over.
We’ve all seen lists on social media of things people plan to do when the pandemic is over. What do you dream of doing when the pandemic is over? Or thinking more broadly, what will you do when that interminable office meeting is over? Or when the semester is over? Or when winter is over?
These are poems about dreams and plans, poems about transitions. What’s next?
Poems should be 10 lines or fewer. Submit to poetlaureate@onecolumbiasc.com for consideration. Rolling deadline, but we are hoping to have 30 great poems by the end of April.
PLEASE SHARE!
