Studio 360’s Summer Poetry Challenge: Battle of the High School Bards
Attention young poets: We want to hear your voices! Don’t leave your best work inside a notebook — send it to us. We’re looking for poetry by current or rising high school students. We’ll post a featured submission here every week, and rising poetry star Dorothea Lasky will pick a winner on our show.
Your assignment: Write a poem on the theme of summer. Your poem can be rhymed, free verse, blank verse, spoken-word, whatever you choose.
Enter your poem as text or audio below.
The deadline for submissions is Monday, August 18, 2014, 11:59 p.m. ET.
Our high school poetry challenge is co-presented with the Alliance for Young Artists & Writers’ Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. Past winners have included Truman Capote, Sylvia Plath, Myla Goldberg, and Lena Dunham. You can out more about the Awards here; submissions for next year’s awards open in September.
