Thursday

Submissions open October 1st through November 30th (to be published in January!) We're seeking poetry and art that evokes the existential or surreal. Move us, stir something deep, and leave us transformed.

I came across a quote that said:

Crater Lake National Park, Oregon 🇺🇸

Self-Portrait Dedicated tomLeon Trotsky (Between the Curtains), 1937

Subs will open in a matter of weeks! Can’t wait to share exciting news & read your work. New, unpublished & established writers are all welcome. I know what it’s like as a Chicana and that’s why doing a project like this has been in my heart for so long #HispanicHeritageMonth

read my new poem “funeral arrangements in the crawlspace” in As It Ought To Be Magazine

I try to pull the language into such a sharpness that it jumps off the page…. It must look easy, but it takes me forever. —Maya Angelou—

Poet feels a feeling or watches the rain. Thinks, "Wow, I feel inspired." Sits down to write. Forgets how. Only emptiness and doubt. Writes anyway. It's awful. But there are tiny interiors that aren't. Poet uses the tiny pieces. Starts again. On repeat, for eternity.
