DYKEHOUSE is a zine press publishing dyke poetry and poetics. The word 'dykehouse' is a Dutchism after the word 'dijkhuis', meaning a house on a dyke (geology). It also centres the home, and the [dyke] community as a home, in its name and as a project as a whole. You might know us from the following titles: The RUSH (exp. September 2026), eds.
