The following dialogue about Louise Glück's “The Wild Iris” inaugurates a new interdisciplinary practice for American Imago. Dawn Skorczewski, a psychoanalytically trained scholar and John Skoyles, a poet, find meaning in the poem from different perspectives and respond to one another's readings. In keeping with American Imago's purpose—to bring psychoanalysis and the human sciences into creative contact—we will periodically invite dialogues about poems for future issues.
