The mission of RockPaperPoem is to publish the finest contemporary poetry available in English in an attractive, easily accessible, online platform for readers in the U.S. and around the world. We seek work from all individuals, especially historically underrepresented voices in poetry communities—BIPOC persons, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, persons of any ability, and individuals of all ethnic and cultural backgrounds.
Our goal is to become a leading U.S. online poetry journal recognized for its high-quality content, attractive design, reader accessibility, and contributor friendliness. We want our publication to be known for promoting a wide variety of poetic styles, diversity in poetic voices, and a welcoming, inclusive community of poets.
