The Circle is always open. The poems I’m looking for return, in Charles Simic’s words, “that which is familiar to its original strangeness”
No fee. Four-week turnaround. Guidelines at the link in our bio.

really? what a narrow view! Anderson did in fact write sympathetically & convincingly about girls & women; even Hemingway has a story from an adolescent girl's perspective, "Up in Michigan," that is a knockout; not to mention D.H. Lawrence, Scott Fitzgerald, Thomas Hardy & (not least) Shakespeare.
if men can't write about women, women presumably can't write about men.
educated people can't write about lesser-educated people, Black writers can't write about brown people, people from Maine can't write about people from Vermont, no one can write about anyone except the sickly face in the mirror.

Poetry proves again and again that any single overall theory of anything doesn't work. Poetry is always the cat concert under the window of the room in which the official version of reality is being written.

POEM 380: "Figment" by Daniel Cartwright-Chaouki
"yesterday is
nothing now, it is too far away,
your tongue is wrapped
around the ruined words,
you can taste the plastic
tang, the newness in the air"

"Juliet was already horizontal
backstage, pinned beneath silk and hot pink
municipal flowers. Her beauty had
the stunned look of love taxidermied."

I thought poetry could change everything, could change history and could humanize, and I think that the illusion is very necessary to push poets to be involved and to believe, but now I think that poetry changes only the poet.
