About the Journal

The
Burlington Poetry Journal is an independent publication that is dedicated to the concept that art should be free and accessible to everyone. In a world with so many voices we believe in a community based, eclectic approach to the publication of poetry. Therefore, the BPJ will always welcome any form or style within its pages. We are currently working towards achieving a non-profit 501(c)3 status.

Decisions have been made

We have finished reading through all of the submissions and are in the process of formatting Volume II.  Thank you for your patience during this period of setting up the Journal, we spend a lot of time on each poem to make sure that they all receive proper attention.  Letters regarding our decisions will be e-mailed by the middle of next week.
