| "AN OUTLIER" is a beautifully raw and introspective exploration of feeling displaced, both inwardly and outwardly. The poem poignantly captures the tension between belonging and isolation, navigating the awkwardness of identity across different worlds. Its rhythm of contrast—between high and low, old and new, internal and external—creates a deeply relatable portrayal of human vulnerability. The speaker’s candid reflections, from fussing over Fusilli to unapologetically yearning for Nutella, offer a tender and unpolished authenticity. In this, the poem shines as both a lament and a celebration of embracing one's angular, beautifully out-of-place self. | ||

| "Don’t Mention the Snow" highlights the humor in imprecision, poking fun at a society so focused on striving for correctness that it borders on absurdity—prioritizing the appearance of goodness over genuine virtue. The concluding Beckettian refrain, "Try again. Fail again. Fail better," offers a note of hope, applauding the ongoing effort to create a more equal society, despite the evident failures of past attempts. | ||

| Nina Slejko Blom's poem A Nursery Rhyme for Every Night of the Year brilliantly blends innocence with biting critique. Its rhythmic simplicity masks a sharp commentary on societal truths, moving seamlessly from the tender origins of life to the brutal reality of war. With humor and bluntness, Slejko Blom captures the absurdity of our world in just a few lines, making her poem both unsettling and unforgettable. | ||
