My prompt this week for Rattle is to “Write a new rondeau that features an unusual noun that begins with the same letter of your first name.”

I’m calling this a broken rondeau—in part because lf there’s a third “A” rhyme with the first iteration of the refrain.

In this week's episode of The Poetry Space_ with @katiedozier.bsky.social, two of my favorite poets go head to head in another date nite duel: Stephen Dunn vs. Kay Ryan. Three rounds. Three random poems. Lots of funny outfits.

A little over a century ago, Ezra Pound corralled a group known as the Imagists that would have a profound effect on poetry as we know it. A controversial figure, Pound explored and enlivened the economy of language and rich images that became founding principles of the group.

Super excited to be the Editor’s Choice Award Winner for the Poetry Box 2025 Chapbook Prize! A big thank you to Shawn Sanders for all the work she puts into running the Poetry Box—I love her poetry so it is an especially meaningful honor.

Here’s my prompt poem this week, which I’ll read live later in the Rattlecast, following Tim’s conversation with Kat Lehmann Blount tonight!

My prompt this week is to: “Write a postcard poem to someone that would be very surprised to hear from you.”

Thank you, Katie. I’ve been doom scrolling since I woke up and your post reminded me that today is the day I start my self-funded camping residency at a pond in the Adirondacks. For the next two weeks, I’m going to be writing a poem. Hopefully many. Thank you for all you do for the poet community.

These episodes made me long for those with opposite opinions (a deacon and an atheist in this) to seek commonality instead of endlessly pointing out differences which, thanks to our negativity bias, are always easier to spot.

I found it enlightening; hope you do too!

Preparing for the Prompt Lines, on the Rattlecast, to take flight tonight!

Here's my poem, based on my prompt to: Write a poem with “self-portrait” in the title that features an odd bird. (Also based on one of my favorite childhood books, thanks Mom!)

Look what arrived right as we were pulling out for a date night! Thrilled with this issue in particular, and not just because it happens to match my dress 😉
