About

Message in a Bottle is [an] on line poetry magazine. We publish high quality poetry of any length. The editor looks for work that displays a virtuoso use of language. Poems that strive to express ideas in arresting images which surprise and delight. Metaphors so original we get a tinge of jealousy after reading. We favour poems whose subject matter brings to our attention the unusual, the unsung and the overlooked , whose events and characters are so memorable, we return to them hours and days later. We love to read brave poems that are sent out in to the world like ' messages in a bottle'.
