We don't read simultaneous submissions or e-mail submissions. We do respond within three months, though, and you can expect to see your work in print within six months of acceptance. Also, if we publish an anthology we reserve the right to reprint your published poem in it; we also reserve the right to publish it on our web page. No photographs or art work wanted, and book reviews are assigned by the editor, though feel free to query.

"Which one of us, in his moments of ambition, has not dreamed of a miracle of poetic prose, musical without rhythm and without rhyme, supple enough and rugged enough to adapt itself to the lyrical impulses of the soul, the undulations of reverie, the jibes of conscience?"
