Described as an "elegantly produced magazine that has discovered a whole new young audience," lyric presents poetry by Americans and translations of both little-known and celebrated poets from around the world. We seek poetry with true singing power distinguished by musicality and lyricism. We also publish lyric essays that use poetic logic and relate a mosaic of ideas. Established in January 2001 at City Lights Books, lyric
has relocated to Bloomington, Indiana.
