For this brand new poetry challenge with the V&A Museum, Young Poets Network is asking you to step away from the bright stage lights, and go backstage into the murkier world behind the curtain. This challenge is open to poets up to the age of 25, from anywhere in the world. Prizes: publication on Young Poets Network, a sought-after YPN notebook, and other assorted poetry goodies….
