The Broke Bohemian Spring Edition
Deadline: March 14, 2017
The Broke Bohemian is now accepting submissions for our Spring Edition! Get wild. Wear your activism proudly. Bare your teeth. Rise up, and rave in the name of Beauty. We commit ourselves to fostering the voices of all people, especially those who’ve been disenfranchised and unheard among the ever-booming holler of the bourgeoisie! Up to three poems, flash fiction, art (photography, digital media, illustrations, paintings), prose, microfiction, nonfiction. We publish pieces at the forefront of unconventional thought and outlandish perspectives.
Be sure to read our submission guidelines before submitting. brokebohemian.com
Overslept, so it’s late, but it’s here.
Make art about having to explain something, about providing an explanation, about the image below.

These last few months, the upheaval, uncertainty, not only in the world at large, but in my own life, with the loss of my sister, knocked me back on my heels a bit. Things–actions–activism–I knew I had to do took over, but now I feel I have found a rhythm, found my feet, and so much of what I’ve worked through, thought through, clarified for myself in these last weeks, has been about what I will not surrender.
Art is at the heart of what I refuse to surrender, making it, sharing it, learning from it, from those with the courage to make it. Nope. No amount of fear-mongering will move me to abandon the making, or the makers.
Make art about what you will not surrender.

My daddy was a sweet, gentle, and wildly imperfect man. But one thing that we all knew, without question, was how much he loved our mama. And lest we forget, periodically, he would sit down and write a letter to each of us kids, telling us how much, and all the reasons why. We all lived in the same town, for so many years, but these letters would arrive unexpectedly in the mail, missives of fierce and eternal Love.
Make art about an unexpected letter, or about fierce Love.

We’re still reading, but closing in on final selections for our April issue, so send us your best–poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction.
