After months of reading submissions, We will launch our Disarm issue tonight. We will post one new poem each night on Rising Phoenix Review at 9PM Eastern Daylight Time from now until October 2nd. So what is Disarm? A themed issue addressing mass shootings in America. An issue that memorializes those who have lost their lives in mass shooting. An issue that attempts to put into words what it is like to be a survivor. An issue that depicts how people are advocating to change gun laws and gun culture in America. An issue that proclaims that we want a world where the lives of our friends and loved ones are not cut short by the finality of a bullet. We want our children to grow old and live to build beautiful things. Melt down guns and ammunition. Disarm the tools of violence. #poetry #poetsofinstagram #poetsofig #literature #literarymagazine #endgunviolence #disarm #risingphoenixreview #endviolence
