Iamb convinced of that.

if anyone asks me what iambic pentameter is, i just tell them:

' the poet says: "i think, therefore iamb" '

Technically Adon Olam isn't common meter--it has a 4-4-4-4 iamb pattern rather than 4-3-4-3. But its meter is also a really frequent one in Western music, and it's close *enough* to squeeze into many common meter melodies if you rush some of the lyrics.

Is there anything better for the body (and soul) on a cold winter day than a steaming bowl of stew? It’s comfort food by the spoonful, whether it’s...

Merry Christmas to poets and poetry lovers everywhere!

As a seasonal gift to you all, @iambapoet.com has a new, simpler web address:

iamb.uk

It's not yet 'official' across the site – but it works right now.

URLs for individual poets' pages may misbehave for a while till everything settles in. 😉🎄

Winter arrives beneath the cloak of the old blue-faced one. She moves over hills, through woods, in shadow. Tightening the land with frost. Shaping the weather. Come in out of the dark to where poems gather like embers. Listen and drink in the latest wave of @iambapoet.com.

plenty of ways to break down the foot structure but i think i like

{dactyl, trochee, iamb, anapest}

best

probably because it has as an intermediate division

{adonic, inverted adonic}

dunno if there's a name for the {iamb, anapest} combo so i'm calling it an "inverted adonic"

The word "iamb" is ironic.

With five days to go until the publication of wave twenty-four of @iambapoet.com, a sneak peek at the new indices page coming to the journal in 2026.

You'll be able to scroll left and right to navigate between waves – and have less far to scroll down. There'll also be an improved search function.
