Today’s poem is Egrets (in memory of Barry Lopez) by Ralph Black. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “Writers build universes out of letters and words from mere marks of a pen or keystrokes on a keyboard: an interiority to be heard and imagined in the reader’s mind. Which is to say: poets rely on readers to make pictures in their head or to hear the thoughts of the speaker in a poem. Poetry shocks us into a recognition of the world and helps renew our lost, or maybe, lapsed capacity to feel.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.
