Prole Laureate Competition

The Prole Laureate Prize for poetry 2012 closes in a month on 1st March. There is a small entry fee that goes towards publication costs of Prole, Poetry and Prose.

We are open to all forms of poetry: free, blank, structured, rhymed, humorous or serious. There is no line limit. You write it, we’ll read it. Once the short list is formed, it will be sent to our Judge. This year Andrew McMillan has kindly agreed to make the final choices.
