Memorious publishes prose, poetry, and art, about two times a year.
What I love:
The speakers. The styles of poetry they publish may vary, but the speaker's are present and accessible, and leave it all out on the page.
Check out:
"Crossing the Three-Rope Bridge" by Chloe Honum
"Child Holding Potato" by Rick Barot
PANK Magazine publishes prose and poetry in print and online. Their online issues are released every month.
What I love:
The audio. A good portion of the poems published in PANK include a reading by the author. There's nothing better than hearing good poem read out loud, and it adds a little extra to the already fun language contained in each issue.
Check out:
"If I Leave You Then Maybe I Won't Have to Miss You So Much" by Ali Shapiro
"Quarterly Report" by Mary Ann Samyn
Elimae no longer publishes poetry and prose unfortunately, but their website is still up and it's worth taking a look.
What I Love:
The compactness. Even the longer poems are tight and compact; every piece of language used is important, and taken seriously.

"a little poem" by Phillipe Shils
"ninenine" by Danielle Lea Buchanan
