COMPOSED: a hospital poetry project
Many of us have taken a moment to collect ourselves before visiting someone in the hospital. We stop and wash our faces, look in the mirror. compose ourselves. Using this moment as the inspiration for our next Prisma Health poetry project, we are looking for poems that fit that moment. We want to use local voices about health, healing, comfort, and courage in spaces where they can make a difference.
- Poems must be short (no longer than 12 lines).
- The deadline for submissions is Monday, Sept. 16.
- Send poems to poetlaureate@onecolumbiasc.com.
