This year, The Iowa Review is celebrating National Poetry Month with a thirty-day online feature, which means we will be bringing you a new poem, by a different writer, each day of April. The featured poems range widely in subject and form, and will take you everywhere from the frozen aisle at the local market to a Midwestern wasteland to a mythic courtroom in which God has been called to the stand.
Please join us in celebrating poetry—its complexity, humanity, and enduring necessity in our lives—by bringing just one new poem into your day for the next month.
