Now inviting SUBMISSIONS

CPA members and friends of poetry…
We are looking for submissions in poetry & articles from
all writers, Canadian and International. Work that brinks
on the ‘controversial’. If you feel you’ve left the
established guidelines behind and you’re not even sure if
works, but you damn well like it anyway, then that’s the
piece we want. Think daring, rather than experimental.
Less avant garde and more krump circa 2001. When
choosing what to submit, keep in mind the golden rule:
better sorry than safe. Send a photo, short bio with your
submission. Send submissions to:
riverbones@live.com or
contact the CPA at
info@canadianpoetryassoc.com.
