Iowa Writes DEBRA L. HUTCHISON Caterpillars creep up our black walnut trees, A man with nine fingers The screen door with silver-taped crosses Pigeons on the barn roof miss The curling caterpillars drop. Under the burning trees, I tip my cup. |
About Iowa Writes Since 2006, "Iowa Writes" has featured the work of Iowa-identified writers on The Daily Palette, and it has recently expanded its scope to include work published by Iowa journals and publishers. Curated by the staff of The Iowa Review, "Iowa Writes" features poetry, fiction, or nonfiction several times a week on the Palette. In November, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) designated Iowa City, Iowa, the world's third City of Literature, making the community part of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network. Iowa City has joined Edinburgh, Scotland and Melbourne, Australia as UNESCO Cities of Literature. Find out more about submitting at iowawrites.org DEBRA L. HUTCHISON Debra L.
