send us your poems!

Submissions Currently Closed <3

We use google forms to collect our submissions. Submissions sent via direct email or Twitter DMs/replies will not be considered

Your poems should identify their dears, whether by direct dedication, title, and/or contents

Your dears can be anyone or anything; we are up for your creative interpretations, just so long as you’re on theme!
Work that celebrates friendship, love, and fascination with the world is up our alley. Darker work or lyrical experimentation is less likely to be accepted

Send up to 3 unpublished poems (totaling no more than 10 pages). Poems posted on private blogs or social media are okay.
Simultaneous submissions are totally fine, just let us know (via our email) ASAP if anything becomes unavailable
Please only submit once during each reading period. If your work is selected, we ask that you refrain from submitting again for the following two issues
We hope to respond to submissions within 3 months — thanks for being patient with us <3
We currently offer a $5 honorarium for publication. We hope to increase this amount in the future
