A wide variety of poetics works here, and you’ll have the most success submitting poems that can do these three things well:

1. Feel good leaving the mouth.
2. Use original or interesting language skillfully.
3. Use visual spacing, narrative pacing, consistent meter, or any combination of these to make the reading capture the reader.

Formal poetry is welcome, as is writing with tinges of the dreamlike or unreal. Voices of people of color, neurodivergent people, and LGBTQ+ people are welcomed here.
