Bolts of Silk is an international online poetry journal in blog format. Poems are posted two or three times a week, the newest poem appearing at the top of the blog. Each poet has a link to their website or blog below their poem and in the blog sidebar. All poems written by any one poet can be viewed together via the sidebar labels list.
Bolts of Silk is primarily an English language blog, but Juliet is happy to publish poems in Scots and related dialects, French, German, Italian or Spanish. Please send English language translations of foreign language poems to be published alongside the original. In the case of Scots dialect poems, Juliet may request a translation to help international readers of the site!
Juliet is looking for beautiful poems of less than forty lines that have something to say. The topic or form isn't important, the ability to move the reader or cause her or him to think is. Similarly poems are chosen for the quality of the writing, not the reputation of the poet.
If you have poetry you would like Juliet to consider publishing in Bolts of Silk, please email her on juliet DOT m DOT wilson AT googlemail DOT com. You may first wish to read some of the poems that have already been published there!
