We've received 7 submissions so far, so the deadline may change, but we want to feel the heart, What do you think of when you think of heart? maybe it's Barracuda by the band Heart, or maybe you worked as a transplant driver, or maybe something else we haven't thought of yet!

When you own a home you soon realize that you are only a caretaker, that you will move, but the house will take care of another family. That's how we view our role within poetry. We want to make sure all are included and contribute to making this house better. #poetrycommunity
