Editorial Focus
We print poetry and visual art. Prose poems and very poetic prose are welcome. There is no required theme, however recurring themes of published work include explorations of identity, culture, heritage, traditions, family, personal experiences, and social justice. The goal is to publish work that is personal, specific to a person or community, and written in a way that allows for people with similar experiences to connect emotionally with the poetry, while also having an impact on the general community.
