Organized by: Stroll of Poets Society

We tell people we need to get away from it all. But, do we mean that we need to escape from work, escape from ongoing crises, or escape from people who drive us nuts? Do we need to get away from constant pressure, flee from phonies, or disappear from aggravation?

ESCAPE is the theme. Tell us about your need to escape any negativity in your life. We all have something we need to escape from, even if it's something deep within ourselves. Write a poem about your need to escape or the rewards of finding it.

Go ahead! Escape, even if it's just for a moment or a few wonderful lines. Then bring it to the Stroll of Poets Haven Reading Series launch, an all-open mic event.
