Under the Basho is now an organic journal that develops its content as the year proceeds. Poet by poet, poem by poem, the journal will grow and develop - its voice will evolve as the year continues.
The opening date for submissions is March 1st and remains open until November 15th, 2014. December 1st of each year will be considered our formal publication date (an Annual Journal). Submissions will be handled by our editors as they come in; the poems finding their way into acceptance or rejection. Please submit up to 10 poems in each category. Once we accept poems from you in a particular division (regardless of the number), you cannot submit to that one again until the following issue - next year. However, you may submit haiku to another division that you have not yet been accepted.
Visit frequently to savor Under the Basho's unfolding.
We have brand new posts in Stand-Alone Hokku, Concrete Haiku, and a Poet's Voice Feature (recorded). Drop by and begin to follow along - a year of development, growth, and wonderful poetry.
