About Third Quarter: A Poetry Journal

Philosophy

We believe the world needs more poetry. We aim to contribute meaningful beauty to the world. We want the rare kind of beauty—the kind that deepens rather than fades with time. We believe beauty evolves.

Poets

We publish emerging & established poets.

Aesthetics

Nonnarrative & experimental
