Tahoma Literary Review positions itself as a venue for poetry that resists narrow aesthetic prescriptions. The editors explicitly state they adhere to no particular aesthetic, which places the journal in a lineage of magazines that privilege the integrity of the individual poem over allegiance to school or trend. This call is for poetry submissions, with a limit of six poems per submission in a single file. One poem may exceed seven pages, but any poem of ten pages or longer must be submitted as a single poem. The journal welcomes free verse alongside formal, prose, and long-form poems. The review expresses a particular interest in work from perspectives underrepresented in the literary world, including BIPOC and writers of color. That commitment is not framed as a thematic constraint but as an editorial priority: the journal seeks a broad range of voices and experiences, and it asks simply for your best work. There is no stated prize or publication fee beyond the $4 reading fee, which is a standard practice for many literary magazines and helps support the review’s operations. For the poet, this is a straightforward opportunity to place a small suite of poems with a magazine that values both craft and inclusivity. The absence of a fixed aesthetic means that submissions are judged on their own terms, and the allowance for longer poems and prose poems suggests a genuine openness to hybrid and expansive forms. The deadline is November 1, 2026, and submissions are accepted via the journal’s standard channel.
