832: The Illiterate
The Slowdown: Poetry & Reflection Daily - Un pódcast de American Public Media
Categorías:
Today’s poem is The Illiterate by William Meredith. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, guest host Jason Schneiderman writes… “Today’s poem is about taking time to turn over and over the mysteries of gratitude and the ways in which desire makes us strange to ourselves. The poet uses the mysteries of writing and the figure of illiteracy not to pin down what it meant for him to know love, but to open up the space where love might be seen in all its confusions.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.
