Editorial Focus
confluence is a venue for emerging and innovative Japanese short-form poets to showcase a representative sample of their work and receive readership and recognition. The editors feature between one to two poet fellows per issue and publish no fewer than 15 poems per fellow so that the poet’s distinctive voice can be appreciated. The fellows form a vital, global community of poets who collaborate and engage deeply with one another’s work.
