32 Poems

Full details

2 Poems welcomes unsolicited poetry year round and accepts simultaneous submissions. We respond quickly though (often within a few weeks) and request that submitters keep that time frame in mind as they submit elsewhere. Poets who have not received a response within 90 days are encouraged to query regarding their manuscript’s status.
As a rule, we publish shorter poems that fit on a single page (about 32 lines), though we sometimes make exceptions to accommodate remarkable work that runs a little longer. Please send no more than five poems (in a single document, if submitting online) and no more than one active submission at a time. We do not accept translations or work that has been previously published in print or online.
We believe poets should be paid for their work. Contributors receive $25 per poem and two copies of the issue in which their writing appears.
For online submissions we charge a $3 reading fee, but that fee is waived for current subscribers.
Alternatively, we continue to accept fee-free postal submissions sent to

Please note, we respond to all submissions electronically, so hard copy submitters should be sure to include an email address with their submission in lieu of an SASE.
