Welcome to the Unpublishable podcast.

Last week, we looked at poems about love. This week, we are looking at three beautifully constructed poems about pain. It’s only fair, I guess, to follow up the joys of life with the hardships of it.

This week’s poets are Kath G, Rida Akhtar Ghumman, and Kevin Bonfield.

Kath can be found here.

Welcome to the Unpublishable podcast.

Love poems are often thought of as grand and romantic gestures; sweet rhyming verses about perfect relationships and domestic bliss. While there’s nothing wrong with this kind of poem, this week we’re looking at three poems that show different sides to love and infatuation: the thrill of infatuation, the all consuming nature of a budding crush, and the fear of feelings being made into words. Beth, Faith Odigbo, and Balogun Abdulmueed bring us their lovely poems about romance and all of its faces.

Beth can be found here.

Balogun Abdulmueed can be found here.

In the midst of a global pandemic, mounting injustice, and loss, there is a feeling of sorrow piling upon sorrow; of control over the occurrences of the everyday slipping from our fingers; of helplessness and rage.

This week, I wanted to give you poems that speak to this feeling of being out of control, to shift it and tilt it and show you each facet. Sometimes, yes, losing control is a vanquishing feeling, but sometimes, it’s in the relinquishing of control that we find clarity. Jason Love, Ivan Ruccione, Carly Dudek, Mia Ochoa, and AR Salandy have given us poems that shed control from its shoulders, that relish in the loss of it, and that mourn in its absence.

Welcome to the Unpublishable Podcast.

This week, we're looking at poems that focus on belonging - the feeling of being at home in a place, in a relationship, in one's own body and mind. From the fantastical to the domestic, this week's poems by Meghna Anil Nair, Kristin Garth, and David Centorbi ask to belong, sing the praises of belonging, and examine what unbelonging means.

Please note that the second poem includes some language that may be triggering to people who have experienced suicidal ideation, lost someone to suicide, or experienced self-harm.

This week, we have a bite-sized episode featuring returning poet Kushal Poddar and The Unpublishable Zine’s founder and contributing poet, Kristen Greenwood. We figured that one poem per poet would make too short of an episode, so we have included two poems from each author this episode! :)
