Blue Jay Voices: FLI Poetry and Prose

Curious about poetry or looking to strengthen your performance skills? Join the FLI Network and the University Writing Center at the Bloomberg Student Center for an open mic night where students can share their creative work in poetry and prose.

Poetry Submission Guidelines
All poetry submissions must be 300–500 words. Please select one of the following prompts:

Wings We Carry – Write about the wings you carry. What are they made of—late nights, family hopes, fear, pride? How do they lift you even when they feel heavy?

The First Flight – Describe your first day stepping into a space no one in your family has entered before. What did the ground look like when you finally took off?

Between Two Skies – Write about living between home and campus, culture and expectation. How do you learn to fly without leaving parts of yourself behind?
