Poems by Megan Huwa &

Vita Poetica Journal

Megan Huwa reads her poem, "Counting Stars," and Hannah Butcher-Stell reads her poem, "one body."

Megan Huwa is a poet and writer in southern California. A rare health condition keeps her and her husband from living near her family’s five-generation farm in Colorado, so her writing reaches for home—both temporal and eternal. Her work has been published or is forthcoming in Solum Literary Press, Calla Press, Foreshadow, Ekstasis, Solid Food Press, San Antonio Review, The Midwest Quarterly, LETTERS Journal, and elsewhere, and featured on The Habit Podcast.

Hannah Butcher-Stell is a writing MFA candidate at Sarah Lawrence College, holding a bachelor's degree in English from Rollins College. You can find her co-authored fiction in Sky Island Journal, Newfound Journal, and The Headlight Review. Meanwhile, her poetry has appeared on Poets.org and has also appeared in The Lehrhaus, Sequestrum, and No, Dear. She currently works as poetry editor of Lumina, Sarah Lawrence's literary journal, and as communications manager for a growing nonprofit.
