Poetry is a literary journal comprised of poems focused on culture. It was founded in 1912 by Harriet Moore.

Beginning in 2001, LVNG was published by Flood Editions, a small non-profit press founded by Michael O’Leary and Devin Johnston. Available online and in communities across the country, LVNG’s primary purpose is “to provide a location for the ideas and aspirations of a collection of writers.” The journal’s unorthodox and informal distribution method – placing copies of LVNG in buses and trains, grocery stores and doctor’s offices – offered people an opportunity to read contemporary poetry without having to purchase a poetry magazine. Later joined by Peter O’Leary and Joel Felix, LVNG produced eleven issues, the last of which appeared in 2004.*
