Equinox Collections: Enclosure

We are looking for beautiful poems exploring Enclosure and Inclosure; the loss of common land, public access to nature, and environmental management are all specific interpretations of this theme we’d particularly like to see, and we will be selecting work for inclusion based on how well it relates to these themes as well as their integration into natural imagery.

Submission Details

• Length Limits: We cannot accept poems that are longer than an A4 page.

• Format Limits: Blocks – Unfortunately, neither our print or digital publications are able to properly display poems formatted as a block.

• Max Number of Poems: 3 – Whilst we love reading all of the work sent to us, we’ve found that a hard limit on the number of poems sent per submission means we’re better able to give everyone the time and consideration they deserve. This means that any extra poems sent to us will be disregarded.

• Credit: Please include a short third-person bio in your submission, including any personal social media handles or other links you would like to have listed. Previously published poems will be considered for inclusion, but must come with full attribution.

• Content Exclusions: Work of an overtly sexual nature, or that promotes any form of hatred, racism, sexism, or other expressions of intolerance will not be considered.

• Where To Send Submissions: Submit your work by emailing us at editors@greeninkpoetry.co.uk – Please ensure that the email subject line includes “Enclosure”.

• Submission Format: Please send your submissions formatted as a word document or PDF attached to an email, or in the body of the email itself.
