About Poety Matters

Poetry Matters is a home-grown print poetry journal that began in Spring 2006.

Censorship can take many forms. The inability to find a place of publication can be social censorship.


Poetry is freedom. Anyone can write poetry.


Nevertheless, it takes a lot of work to create the poetry that reaches the places only poetry knows.


Whoever you are, wherever you are,
Poetry Matters welcomes you as readers and writers.

Van Gogh

"Everyone remembers that Van Gogh cut off his ear. Few know that he said: 'The cart one draws must be useful to people whom one does not know'; and that he dedicated his life to trying to make this true."

from John Berger 'Permanent Red' 1960
