Rabbit 23
Youth
This issue of Rabbit showcases the work of talented young poets who demonstrate not only a heightened awareness of what language can do—sonically, rhythmically, meaningfully—as it moves across lines, but also an astonishing capacity for personal, social, cultural and political insight. As ‘nonfiction poetry,’ these poems tell us that their authors are engaged with the world in ways that matter, whether that be on a relatively small scale (via inspecting the feet of one’s father) or on a large scale (taking part in a major political protest). It is heartening to know that such sensitive and perceptive poems are being written by the next generation of poets. Featuring work by Jazz Money, Cindy Song, Holly Friedlander Liddicoat, Mira Schlosberg, Ella Skilbeck-Porter, Broede Carmody, Ondine Seabrook, Ellen van Neervan, and more.
