Anteroom (prev The Winged Moon)@anteroompoetry.bsky.social · last yr.here at the moons wings we are surprised that we have received very few works writing on the climate emergency or experimental nature writing in our submissions and we’d love that, daring and weird poetry and essays that alter our perspectives. We close on 2 July!!
what makes us a part of nature and not apart? we are opening our gates for nature writing that includes the human.

Anteroom (prev The Winged Moon)@anteroompoetry.bsky.social · last yr.at the winged moon, BIOPHILIA is more than our current theme. it is the central question burning at the heart of us. how can we see our way through the ecological crisis if we can’t see a newway to relate to nature? we would love to read your work that moves us & thrills us with language
