The Spring 2024 issue of Rattle features a Tribute to Collaboration. Collaborative poetry has a long history, dating back at least to the Beats, but has been marginalized in the past as somehow less serious than a single tortured poet’s wrestle with the blank page. The truth, though, is that collaborative poetry can be a fun way to deepen our own insights. The theme includes 15 poems by 31 poets working in pairs or trios, and a three-way conversation with frequent collaborators Denise Duhamel and Julie Marie Wade. The always-eclectic open section features familiar names and new voices exploring the human condition, from hope to home-buying to cuss words.
