Wax Poetry and Art presents Caribbean Poetry Magazine, a magazine dedicated to showcasing poets from the Caribbean, South America, and Central America on an international stage.
Caribbean Poetry Magazine believes that poetry is connected to human society in diverse and meaningful ways. Poetry is a literary form and an artistic tradition thousands of years old, going back to the oral tradition. Poetry is a ceremonial expression at important cultural events. More privately, many engage with poetry in a deeply personal way, outside of any social function. Poetry is catharsis, philosophy, and spirituality. Poetry is scientific, humorous, and surreal. Poetry is the story of the great and the small, the triumph and the struggle – the record of our life and time. Poetry is all of these things, and more.
Caribbean Poetry Magazine is committed to reflecting the true scope of poetry and by doing so, to bringing more poets and more readers into the global poetry community.
Caribbean Poetry Magazine seeks submissions from poets from all backgrounds and levels of experience, from everywhere in the Caribbean, South America, and Central America. All topics are welcome. All styles. Literary, spoken word, free verse, rhyming, haiku, sonnets, prose – all types and forms of poems are welcome.
Caribbean Poetry Magazine is a qualifying publication for the Poetry World Cup.
