Does poetry bring you joy? Does it also make you weep into your pillow and refreshes and fucks you up all at once? Yeah, same here.

ONLY POEMS started out as a poetry magazine and, like poetry, it has become this extra, unweildy, wild, crazy, beautiful ecosystem that we’re both proud of and humbled by.

We want poets and poetry to be read and loved far and wide, not just within our small but mighty literary community. To this end, we have many future goals and aspirations. Not too many of them are possible without money, ha! Enter: the ONLY POEMS membership.

Above, you’ll see a breakdown of three different annual membership tiers and what they’ll get you. As we expand our offerings and avenues for all things poetic, these range of perks will bloom into even better things. For now, though, we’re really excited to offer you — our hopefully soon-to-be Members/Friends/Patrons — some amazing submission, workshop, feedback, and community opportunities. 

If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
