Rattle (magazine)

Rattle is a poetry magazine founded in 1994, published in Los Angeles in the United States. The print magazine is published quarterly, with a poem also published daily through its website, and through its "Daily Poem" email. Rattle receives around 250,000 poetry submissions a year, and publishes around .02%.

It publishes poems both by established writers, such as Philip Levine, Li-Young Lee, Jane Hirshfield, Billy Collins, Sharon Olds, Gregory Orr, Patricia Smith, and Anis Mojgani, and by new and emerging poets. Poems from the magazine have been reprinted in The Best American Poetry and Pushcart Prize anthologies. Rattle does not solicit poems for publication, and instead follow's editor Timothy Green's guidelines of curation over publication. This means that Rattle will consider poems that the poet has shared before on their blog or social media.

Each issue is themed to honor a particular community of poets, such as teachers, slam poets, Los Angeles poets, NFT poets, Musicians, and the Haibun form. Interviews with contemporary poets are also a staple of the quarterly print issue.
