We are very pleased to share that Rebecca Morgan Frank’s poem “Automaton Angels” (from 32 Poems 17.1) has been chosen for inclusion in the latest Orison Anthology which gathers each year’s finest spiritually-engaged writing.
Also, we have nominated the following poems for consideration for inclusion in the 2021 volume: John Glowney’s “Flu”, Lance Larsen’s “The Bread and Water of It”, Rick Bursky’s “The Sinking Ship Spiritual”, Jehanne Dubrow’s “Prayer Rug from Persia”, Ryan Wilson’s “Wind Advisory”, and Austen Leah Rose’s “Seventh Meditation on the Existence of God” from our two most recent issues.

We love the Best New Poets and New Poetry from the Midwest series for the incredible collections they gather year after year and for the regular opportunity they offer to celebrate incredible work from our pages.
This year we have nominated Traci Brimhall’s “Oh Wonder”, Austin Segrest’s “The Ice Advances”, and Mark Wagenaar’s “The Book of Vigils” for New Poetry from the Midwest. We’ve also submitted Austin Segrest’s poem for the next incarnation of Best New Poets along with Katie Schmid’s “The Boatman“.
We’ve had great success placing work in these series in the past and we’re as proud of this year’s nominees as we’ve ever been. I hope you’ll join us in cheering on these poems.

The summer issue of 32 Poems is on its way to subscribers this week, and, friends, this one’s a beaut.
You’ll find a few of our favorites, like Randall Mann and Malachi Black, returning to our pages this summer, but the great bulk of this issue is comprised of poets new to 32 Poems. While several of these poets have yet to publish a first collection, you’ll want to remember names like Sarah Burke, Emily Cinquemani, Craig van Rooyen, C.T. Salazar, and Jan Verberkmoes. They’re poets we think you’ll be reading for many years to come.
You can dip into the issue now at our current issue page and order 16.1 in its entirety here.
Contributors’ Marginalia, the weekly series of short essays in which our poets consider each other’s work, will return in September, and we’ll also be featuring a number of new interviews and reviews online in the coming months–look for Cate Lycurgus’s conversation with Shara Lessley up next.
Enjoy!
