IT’S ON PAPER AND YOU GET IT IN THE MAIL!

nibble is a paper and staple poetry magazine that focuses on the best in short poetry. We are looking for well crafted poems that speak to us intellectually, emotionally and sometimes physically.  We want to see life condensed down to 20 or fewer well-crafted lines.

This quote, from Leah Angstman over at Propaganda Press, describes nibble quite well:  ”The poems here are fairly mysterious, often just snippets of a scene or a moment, intense descriptions of a tiny second, not always complete, not always cohesive, but always vividly poetic, leaving you wanting more, poking your imagination through the ear with a cake tester.”

SUBSCRIPTION INFO:

Single issues are $4 each, subscriptions are $20 for 6 issues.  If you try a sample issue and decide you want more, we’ll put the $4 you already paid toward the price of a subscription, meaning you can send us just $16 more and we’ll send you the next five issues.

We encourage all payments to come via PayPal.  It’s super fast and easy and you can pay with either a credit or debit card, even if you don’t have a PayPal account!

SAMPLE POEMS:

Arts And Crafts

If thought alone has the right
to speak
these girls are carving
pumpkins
collecting foliage
for decoration.
Mothers wait in cars.
Some make lists.

If sensation is more articulate
the girls feel flesh give
beneath a knife,
want brighter
than fallen leaves.
In their cars
some women cry
and can't say why.
