Portals, journals, zines, blogs, lists, directories, comment, news, publishers and places to read, watch or listen to poetry online. A selection of poetry resources relating to Aotearoa New Zealand and the Pacific plus some international sites. Most links feature full-text poetry.
HISTORIC NOTE:
the idea of cataloguing NZ poetry on the web seemed doable at the beginning of the 00s. But over the years it became impossible on a part time basis. These links now are a fading time capsule of the mid-00s - increasingly broken and unrepairable as sites disappear... Poetry archivists could try the Way Back Machine to see if the Internet Archive keeps a copy.
