drown in my own fears is a poetry journal about the human condition, therefore, we want poems reflecting that. poems submitted should be about love, hate, pain, sorrow, etc. we don't want maudlin sentimentality. we want the depths of your very being. we want well written, deeply conceived pieces of work. anything that isn't about the human condition really isn't for us. send us your poems in the body of an e-mail. we don't want to mess with attachments. sorry, that's just the way it goes here. please include a cover letter and a brief bio with your submission. for issue number ten, we're looking for poems about endings. for example, the summer is ending and possibly, we leave something behind. it could be family or a lover. it could be a summer romance. it could be the death of a spouse. think of something creative and make sure it's your best work. we are also accepting photo submissions. send poems and photos to drowninmyownfears@yahoo.com.
