ABOUT

For the past decade, Muzzle Magazine has published writing of revolution and revelation, and in 2020, on the precipice of a new decade, we will continue seeking submissions that move us not just in feeling, but also in intention. We resist the notion that a journal must have a fixed aesthetic, or that submissions for a new issue should mimic the style or approach of poems in previous issues. Instead, we are looking for poems that move (us) beyond.

Institutionalized hate, discrimination, exploitation, rape, violence, tangible and intangible theft, and other abuses of power are older than this country. To that end, we are dedicated to upholding marginalized voices, and prioritize submissions by BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and disAbled authors. We are seeking new answers to old questions and old answers to new questions. We are seeking something we don’t know how to name yet. 

Poems from Muzzle have been selected for Best American Poetry, The Pushcart Prize, Best of the Net, and Verse Daily. If you would like us to highlight work originally published in Muzzle that has since been reprinted elsewhere, click here. Muzzle accepts poetry submissions twice per year and publishes semiannually.
