Check out recent issues to see what's new. Another way to explore the authors on this page, if you aren't sure who or what you're looing for, is to go to my "Styles and Themes" page, where I discuss how the poems listed on this page (and a lot of others, too) fit into different poetic styles and address different topics and themes. It's a fast overview of modern alliterative poetry. Or you can check out the following samplers: Scenes, Settings and Objects, Modern Life, Fantasy and Horror, The High Medieval World, The Anglo-Saxon and Viking Worlds, Arthurian Legend, The Classical, Alliterative, The Biblical, Alliterative, the Riddle Tour, or the Audio-Video Tour of Alliterative Verse..
