The Poet’s Haven has submitted its nominations for the next Pushcart Prize. From this year’s publications, we have selected:
- “Lesson” by Michelle Shin from To The End
- “2 AM” by J.E. Stanley from The Persistence of Night
- “Self-Evident Truths” by Kenneth Pobo from Highway Rain
- “The Neon Immeasurable” by Michael Bernstein from This Night is an Impossible Explosion of Souls
- “On People Who Think They’re Living Dangerously” by Skylark Bruce from the Lake Effect Poetry 2014 & 2015 Team Anthology
- “On Selling Paper Books in a Kindle World” by Vertigo Xi’an Xavier from the Lake Effect Poetry 2014 & 2015 Team Anthology
(While, yes, I do think it is egotistical to nominate one’s own poem for the Pushcart award, the Pushcart anthologies are only sold in print, so I’m hoping my anti-eBook rant will provide the editors with a laugh.) 🙂
