This is such a great idea, Alex, but I do have one doubt about it. Couldn’t the anonymity of the authors be in some way compromised by the submission of already published poems? Published, although not necessarily meaning famous, does suggest availability, and Google search makes things so easy. If the works are anywhere on the net, even just as a title or an excerpt of a few words, mentioned by others or in a list or table of contents, something might point to the writer, and all the work for this blind/blind would be ineffectual.
Thanks for some reassurance on this point,
