About
Caesura refers to a break or a pause in poetry. In ancient poetry, this was a break between words in the middle of metric foot. In modern poetry, it refers to a pause near the middle of a line. On its own, a caesura is nothing. It may be difficult for the casual observer to articulate precisely what has occurred in the line. However, the effect is noticed and in fact becomes the focal point upon closer observation. We are of the opinion that there’s little art left in words themselves. A caesura is a prime example of an elegant poetic device that is underappreciated in contemporary poetry. We are also of the opinion that many good poets are underappreciated in the world of publishing, and that is why one of our primary goals at Caesura is to publish new and emerging writers.

Poetry Believed Defunct
We’re looking for pieces that exhibit a rare kind of authenticity and lack of pretension. We believe that honesty is the substance lacking most from the majority of poetry that we read, and it is always refreshing to discover a bit of it. At the same time, we are looking for poems that are well-crafted, nuanced and subtle — original pieces with some complexity to them, but not so much that they could be called obscure.
