Fourteen Poems. Queer Poetry Anthology. Issue 13.
These poems look at such a wide array of topics: online flirting, gender questioning, hope in the face of dark times, sex and love, and what our childhood crushes have to say about us now.
In this issue, there’s John McCullough writing in his trademark surreal style about optimism, Hetty Cliss using emojis to depict digital interactions, Titilayo Farukuoye using a slowly disintegrating form to dissect gender expectations, and So Mayer queering the concept of romance through language and imagery. And many more exciting poems.
We can’t wait for you to read these! Here are our latest fourteen poems:
