For the Fall 2009 Umbrella (pub date September 1) we will be reading both unthemed and themed poetry and prose.  For the themed section, we are looking for poems that have something to do with school subjects, e.g., history, geography, science, math, languages, etc.  Understand, we are not looking for retrospective poems that deal with your school days, but rather poems that encounter the subjects themselves. (Despite that statement, we’ve been seeing a lot of poems that take place in classrooms or concern academics or teaching; this is not what we’re seeking.  A history poem will be about a historical event or personage; a science poem might use quantum physics as metaphor; a Psych 101 poem might be about depression or a complex.  Get the idea?) We welcome your submissions. Deadline:  August 10th.
