Working People's Poetry Contest Winner

This year's entries we all so good that choosing a winner was exceptionally difficult. Most of the poems entered will be published in future issues of the Blue Collar Review.

The winner of the $100.00 grand prize is Joe Weil for his Poem, The First Time I Got Up Early. We had two runners up: Coney Island Dialectic by Dave Iasevoli and Burn Bright by Willie Wilson. Both of these poets win a one year subscription to our journal and have their fine poems posted as runners up on the Contest Winners page of our site. We are thankful for all who sent in such great poems.
