Anthology of one hundred and thirty-nine poems, the work of eighty-nine poets, selected from those which were entered in the third annual international competition for the Proverse Poetry Prize in the latter part of 2018.

Included in the anthology are the poems that won the first, second, and third prizes. Selection to appear in the anthology was also awarded as a prize by the judges for the Prize.
