Salvation South

01/11/2026

Lucy is twenty‑five, stuck between a college past and an Atlanta future that refuses to take shape, driving a 2005 CRV between the city and the seashore, with QuikTrips and Waffle Houses as pit stops.
​
In Grace Osborn’s debut story for us, a birthday beach trip, a too-young boyfriend, and a late‑night scroll through LinkedIn force Lucy to face the one person she can’t outrun: herself.

All year long, Southern poets have poured memory, work, faith, grief, food, and music into our pages. Now, poetry editor Andy Fogle and editor‑in‑chief Chuck Reece each offer a tour through the Salvation South poems of 2025 that stayed with them the longest. Settle in with their picks, then pass these poems along to someone who needs them.

Chuck’s list lifts up a different chorus: Jimmy Carter building houses, a Family Dollar worker on the early shift, a homeless veteran on a cold sidewalk, and Black q***r boys held in the light of a tender, defiant elegy. Together, these poems braid labor, injustice, faith, and stubborn love into the heartbeat of the South.

Settle in with their picks, then pass these poems along to someone who needs them.

Andy’s list leans into seeking and surprise: heroic crowns of sonnets, oranges and carrots, catfish suppers, and images of everyday life that suddenly turn radiant. These are the Southern poems he simply can’t shake.
