About





Black Poppy Review is a literary arts journal featuring free verse poetry, flash fiction, and mini-chapbook collections (poppy dreadfuls), of a darker nature. All is not as it seems at Black Poppy. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Find the key. Unlock the creaky gate on rusted hinges. Explore the dilapidated, mossy grounds. Discover hidden paths and nooks which lead to words that linger and haunt--poems of abandonment, flora & fauna, folklore, ghosts, magical realism, memories, nature, night, solitude, weathering, wonder, and the otherwise forgotten.  

* We are partial to poems about ancient gardens, abandoned manors, and dark forests.

Black Poppy Review publishes periodically throughout the year.
