Wax Poetry and Art presents Edinburgh Poetry Magazine.
Edinburgh Poetry Magazine accepts poetry submissions from everywhere in the world. All topics are welcome. All styles.
Poetry is catharsis, philosophy, and curiousity.
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.
Edinburgh 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.
Edinburgh Poetry Magazine is a qualifying publication for the Poetry World Cup.
Visit the Submissions page and read the guidelines to submit.
New issues are published on January 15th, May 15th, and September 15th of every year. Read the newest work on the Published page.
