INTRODUCTION Poetry is always teaching me something. When I became an editor with Barren Magazine, I quickly realized reading someone else’s art vastly improved my own. Submitters introduced me to forms I never knew existed and made me want to try my own hand at it. Like pantoums. I didn’t know what the hell a pantoum was until I read one in the slush pile.
