Tips From the Editor
Please send: poems that express the complexities of the human heart in clear, precise, lyrical language. We want poems that call out to us, that won’t let us sleep or turn away; poems that gleam and palpitate with intimacy. We hope for visionary works that are visceral and that will leave us emotionally undone. We believe metaphors. We are especially intrigued by imaginative, imagistic language that melds the real to the surreal. We question reality. So can your poems.
