Happy Friday! We've got another New Voices poem for you. Check out Palavi Ahuja's "Parle-G," which is about far more than "a sleeve of Parle-G biscuits," here: buff.ly/8m4hyQb #newvoices #poetry

We've got another New Voices for you this Friday! One particular area of genius in Ridwan Fasasi's poem "Millenials after the banishment" resides in its details — in particular, line breaks and ends of lines. We hope you enjoy reading it. #newvoices #poetry

It's Friday, which means we've got a New Voices poem for you! This week, check out "Home as a Slaughterhouse" by Blessing Omeiza Ojo, which contains within it both violence — "slaughter" — and embrace — "house." #newvoices #poetry

We've got another unforgettable New Voices poem for you. This week, check out "A flowchart for the anxious insomniac." Chau Anh Nguyen uses an experimental form in this poem to help readers sit with the language of it, which is fractured yet interwoven. #newvoices #poetry

We're excited to share another New Voices poem this Friday! Check out Seth Wade's "Escape from the Filth Room." Wade captures just how bizarre it can feel to envision getting out of rooms in which we find ourselves ensnared for weeks. #newvoices #poetry

It's Friday, which means we've got another New Voices poem! Making the mundane suddenly surreal, Caleb Wolfson-Seeley links seemingly disparate moments, from a cat’s skeleton to burnt toast, in "And the tulips didn’t bloom this year." #newvoices #poetry

We are proud to announce the WINNER of our Epistolary Challenge: Shradha Singh! This poem assembles a life from crumbs: hidden photographs, a courtroom outburst, a last love letter read aloud years later. All of which accumulate to a deeply moving end. #poetry #epistolary

Congratulations to the second place winner of our Epistolary Challenge! Christian Collier's poem "Dear Sarah" becomes a meditation on sexual becoming, silence, and the way first loves linger—caroling—long after the truth has learned how to speak. #poetry #epistolary

Congratulations to the third place winner of our Epistolary Challenge! Check out Sullivan Summer's "NEW BULLETIN BOARD POST." Tender, political, and quietly urgent, the poem turns a building's bulletin board into a stage for grief and hope. #poetry #epistolary

It's New Voices Friday! This week, check out Ziyuan Tang's poignant poem "To My Very Catholic Father." Most poems featuring ars poetica can stray toward the pedantic, or else they're academic, self-referential, and stodgy, but Tang's is none of the above. #newvoices #poetry
