Poetry/YELLOW ROSES: EMILY MORGAN AND THE MYTHIC AND HISTORIC WOMEN OF TEXAS
Bihl Haus Arts seeks poetry that confronts the untold stories of the Alamo as a way of examining the violent history of war in Texas – and the price we’ve paid for “freedom.” We want poetry that examines slavery, the colonization of mexicanos, and the oppression of women, lesbians, rich and poor, from both sides of the border. We are seeking poetry that is high quality, original, but also accessible to the public at large. No slam poetry, please, unless it is literary. Established poets and new poets are welcome.
Poetry should be no more than forty lines. Two entries per person. Give us your best work. English/Spanish/Tex-Mex/Whatever
Most of all, we are seeking poetry that challenges conventional perceptions about the Alamo and that invites the public to read more poetry.
Deadline for submission is Friday, January 30, 2009. Poems must be emailed or postmarked on this day. NO EXCEPTIONS.
Selected poets will read with featured poet, Celeste Guzman Mendoza, on Saturday, April 4, 2009, for the closing ceremony of the Yellow Roses exhibit at Bihl Haus Arts and to commemorate National Poetry Month. Selected poems (as space allows) will also be published in the Yellow Roses brochure, included in the visual arts exhibit that opens on Friday, March 6, 2009 (the final day of the Battle of the Alamo).
Please email your poems to: Kellen McIntyre at kellenkee@swbell.net
Or snailmail to: POETRY/Bihl Haus Arts, P.O. Box 100806, San Antonio, Texas 78201
The curators for this event include poet/playwright Celeste Guzman Mendoza, writer/journalist Bárbara Renaud González, and writer Denise McVea.
If you have any questions, please contact Kellen McIntyre at 732-3502.
