PERVERSE publishes poems by digital newsletter which are “deliberate, obstinate, unreasonable or unacceptable, contrary to the expected practice”.
Visual poems are welcome. Translations are welcome, as long as you have the translated poet's permission (or their work is out of copyright). Anything you can think of is pretty much welcome. Poems should not have been previously published. Get a taste of the magazine by reading previous issues here:

Submissions will remain open until midnight BST on July 31st 2021. Submissions will be read in August, and all contributors will be replied to by email by the end of September. Regretfully, there is no payment available.
