It’s Friday, which means it's time for another New Voices poem! Check out Rory Kilalea’s “Old Man (in Johannesburg).” His poem captures the stutter-stop rhythm of nightlife, casting a neon glow on unseen worlds of power, sex, need, and desperation. #newvoices #poetry

It's New Voices Friday! This week, check out Arihant Jain's poignant poem "Borrowed." Folded in the fortunes of chai leaves, in the taste of monsoons, and in Pacific depths, Jain explores the quiet loss of the American dream for people who are the children of immigrants.

It’s Friday, which means a new New Voices poem at Frontier! This week, read Benjamin Renné’s Inversion in Green, where betrayal blurs the line between the offender and the natural world—offering, as Renné writes, a space "'in between reality." #newvoices #poetry #frontier

It's Friday, which means we've got another amazing New Voices poem! What exactly does Nietzsche have in common with a vegetable? Find out in Portia Yu's "The Onion Ghost." This poem makes it clear that sometimes a little absurdism is exactly what the doctor ordered. #frontier
