Editorial Focus
The magazine only prints poetry and visual art. The editors welcome prose poems and very poetic prose. There is no required theme, however recurring themes from the poets they publish include: identity, culture, heritage, traditions, family, personal experiences, and social issues. Their goal is to publish work that is personal, specific to a person or community, and written in a way that allows for people with similar experiences to connect emotionally with the poetry, while also being impactful to the general community.
