FIELD: Contemporary Poetry
and Poetics
Welcome to the online home of FIELD, a twice yearly
journal of contemporary poetry and poetics. FIELD
has published spring and fall issues each year since
its founding in 1969. The magazine is available at
bookstores and by subscription. Back issues can also
be obtained, in limited quantities. See Ordering
Information for more details.
Would-be contributors:
we read poetry from August through May, and usually send replies
within two months. We
aren't looking for any particular style or theme,
just the best work being written today. Please send
between 2 and 6 poems via our online Submission
Manager.
No simultaneous
submissions,
please.
FIELD pays contributors at the rate of $15 per page.
All rights revert to authors upon publication.
Editors: David
Young, David Walker

Alexander, Kazim Ali, DeSales Harrison
