The Skrews Syndication

The Skrews Syndication is an independent literary publication that is dedicated to the darker, pain-filled words of poets who've experienced severe adversity, trauma, and tribulation in their lives. While the element of suffering is often held in high esteem in the poetry community, most poets who haven't already created a name go unheard. This publication is here to change this. We are by those, for those, and celebrated by those who are in this very real state of chaos. Issue 004 (Sultry Apprehensions, 2022), is a collection of forty-nine poems from various amateur poets across the globe. With the global economic fallout from varying events over the last few years, 2022 has been a particularly difficult year for many of us. In respect, these poets have written a wide encompassment of poetry that highlights the subjects of isolation, grief, mental angst, displacement, and much more.
