ANNUAL STATE ANTHOLOGY

Each year Missouri State Poetry Society publishes an anthology of the poems of our members.  A member is entitled to have up to two poems in the anthology.  The anthology is called Grist and features on its cover one of Missouri's old grist mills.

Every member is encouraged to submit up to two poems that are 31 or fewer lines in length (including spaces between stanzas), which leaves room on the page for the poet's name, the poem's title, and the MSPS chapter the poet belongs to.  Lines should be no longer than 55 characters.

Please include your name, town of residence, and MSPS chapter you belong to with your poem (OR put Member-at-Large if you are a member-at-large).  

DEADLINE:  Send poems according to dates listed on "Call for Submissions" email.
