| Prose Poems, Flash Fiction and Short Stories |
| Prose Poems
Prose poems combine qualities of poetry and prose, reading like free verse, with no line breaks. Prose poems are much shorter than regular prose, usually no longer than a paragraph or two. Characters, dialog, conflict/resolution and elements common to prose, are generally not seen in prose poetry. Please limit your prose poems to 250 words or less. Moderator: Dianne T
