Misophist Magazine Wildcard

We are trying, by no means, to be anti-intellectuals. We like intellectuals who do love with their keenness. Like, for instance, Einstein. Now wisdom is different from intelligence. Wisdom is about judgment, having experience, the quality of someone with depth, and, now, isn’t that just something you want? It’ll definitely make it easier to sell whatever you’re peddling, if you come across that way, your muscle powders and enlightenment solutions, your perfect sex-segregated world, your…

Three Line Poetry

Three Line Poetry is a journal devoted to the art of the compressed image — poems that arrive complete in three lines, that hold their breath and say everything in the space of a moment. We draw on the tradition of the haiku and the senryū, of Bashō and Issa and Buson, and we carry that spirit into the present: contemporary voices, global perspectives, the full weight of human experience in the fewest possible words. We believe the short poem is not a lesser poem. It is a harder one…
