We’re heading towards the end of the year and many of the poems shortlisted for our Pick of the Month for November are exhorting us to use our senses to their extremes: to inhale, to look, to see, to listen.
Please make your choice from the very fine works featured below (or see the ‘Vote for your Pick of the Month for November 2017′ in the Categories list to your right on the screen.) These have either been chosen by Helen and Kate or received the most attention on social media.
Voting is now closed. The winner will be announced on Friday 15th December.
The winner each month will be sent a £10 book giftcard or, if preferred, a donation of the same amount will be made to a chosen charity. In the event of the winner being from outside the UK mainland, we will make every effort to provide a reasonable alternative. All winning poetry Picks, provided they the meet the eligibility criteria, will be considered as IS&T submissions for the annual Forward Prize for Best Single Poem.
