Lucky Lizard Journal

This is a journal dedicated to the art of poetry in its entirety. We are looking for poetry that is traditional or contemporary, long or short, quirky or mature, anything and everything under the sun. But please, send only your best. Life is too short for the inadequate!
We nominate for the Pushcart Prize!
We accept simultaneous submissions!
We publish twice a year, twenty poems per issue!

A True Egalitarian Journal

This journal prides itself on accepting work of any kind, any theme, any length, any style. We understand and appreciate the whole poetic landscape and will never discriminate against poetry or poets. We will try to best discriminate between the best works and the rest, though. It is a difficult task, but we hope that you can enjoy the final product: our Journal.

Check the submissions page for more details.

BIANNUAL POETRY CONTEST

Support the journal.

Help us make this happen. We want to be able to pay our poets, run contests, and publish print copies. Maybe bring in a big, paid editorial team. It can’t happen without you, though.
