Answer:

Michael Donaghy, ‘Black Ice and Rain’.

Explanation:

Published in 2000 in his collection Conjure, this poem is the earliest on this list, appearing at the very beginning of the current century. Donaghy’s early death, aged just 50, in 2004 robbed the poetry world of more of his poetry, but ‘Black Ice and Rain’ stands as one of the greatest dramatic monologues, spoken by a man at a party who tells a stranger his sorry tale.

This poem takes in everything from religious belief to personal tragedy, treating them with postmodern irony and using a car crash caused by ‘black ice and rain’ as the focus.
