Clementine is interested in publishing high quality persona poetry. Persona means "mask" in Greek. We are looking for poetry that places emphasis on an invented speaker. The voice need not belong to a historical figure or pop-culture icon, although it can; it can also be as simple as any voice in the first person. (Or not.) If the speaker is compelling, the language evocative, and the originality apparent, we'll take it.

We are looking to publish our new issue in June 2012! 

Please send a short bio and 3 - 5 poems to clementine@clementinemagazine.com

Please do not send fiction.
