Editorial Focus
Verses From The Underground is a free monthly poetry publication based in Philadelphia. The publication stands for the promotion of good quality, accessible poetry. Verses aims to be a voice for the poetic underground, regardless of topic, style, or technique—as long as the poems are good. The current issue is always free and exclusively physical. Each monthly Issue of Verses is made up of submissions (the editors are always accepting and reviewing).
Tips From the Editor
You may submit up to 3 pieces per month.
We do not provide unsolicited feedback regarding rejections.
We accept short format poetry (preferred maximum line count: 55). Any genre.
Due to page sizing restrictions, it is unlikely we will accept a poem over 55 lines.
However, all work will be reviewed.
We DO NOT CARE what your poem is about, but we DO CARE if it is written well.
