ANMLY is now open for our new folio exploring poetry on desire and devotion that revels in excess.

We’re seeking previously-unpublished poetry, multimedia poetry, audio, and video. Absolutely no AI.

Commonly associated with transgressive forms of sexuality, a fetish can also refer to an irrational fixation or protective talisman. Who or what informs our obsessions and rituals?
