An idea for poems:

Andrea Watson, a member of IWWG is issuing a call for submissions: Anthology on Collecting/Poems about Collecting . . .:

“Muse with us about the why and how of what we collect. Proposed anthology looking for POEMS that draw us out of the expected and into the anthropology of collecting. Take us from the universe of small things to universal themes. Dazzle us.

Think:
bottle of dress buttons
religious objetcs
microscopes and maps
basket of mushrooms
pioneer diaries
spongeware bowls
heirloom seeds
dreams and stars

Please send up to 3 poems, each no longer than 32 lines, with a 3-5 line bio and SASA to: A. Watson, P.O. Box 370627, Denver, CO 80237. Deadline: March 31, 2009.
