#ThisIsWhere
Poetry is a kind of geography. It is a map that places us and reminds us of the past–of memories stuck in our subconscious. #ThisIsWhere _____________ is a WLRN + O, Miami poetry contest that encourages all South Floridians to write a poem about a place that is meaningful to them.
Locals wrote poems about a place meaningful to them. Where their lives were changed. About the first place they made love, got dumped, lost their dog, found their cat, drove into a tree, buried their goldfish, threw up after a weekend at Ultra or found an iguana that was not their iguana in their bathtub. They told us what happened and even what it tasted like.
The submissions are in. You showed us where it happened. Now you can now vote for your favorite poem here.
Five #ThisIsWhere contest winners will be announced at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, April 30, at Miami Club Rum, 2320 N. Miami Ave., Miami. If you’d like to read your poem at the event, please arrive promptly.
