September 16:
100 Thousand Poets for Change*
100 Thousand Poets for Change was initially conceived by Michael Rothenberg
and Terri Carrion in March, 2011, as a worldwide set of events to take
place simultaneously on September 24, 2011. Literary event organizers
volunteered to host associated events in their own cities or schools. On
September 13, 2011, the city of Santa Rosa, California, declared September
24, 2011, to be "100 Thousand Poets for Change Day," and Stanford
University offered to archive all documentation and audiovisual records of
the event posted on the 100TPC web site. Send us a poem for social change.
*Deadline for Submissions: September 16th*
General Submission Guidelines
Please limit your submission to one poem.
Keep this poem limited to 35 lines total. When determining the total line
length for each poem, include spaces between stanzas (ex: a poem of 5
couplets would equal 14 lines). Numbers or section breaks should also be
included as lines when calculating the total line length. Count an epigraph
as 3 extra lines. A line that has more than 60 characters (including spaces
and punctuation) should be counted as two lines of your total line count.
If lines are staggered like a Ferlinghetti poem, estimate the width of the
line.
The final book will be printed in 11 point Garamond font on pages that are
4 1/2 inches wide. Poems with lines longer than 4 1/2 inches may be
rejected due to printing constraints.
