I've overthought the poem this year. About the mood and the language. I wanted to use some of my favorite poems (my friend Cheryl Clarke! or amazing Ralph Nazareth) but I thought I'd try GUEST POSTS this summer, for them and their poems. And use instead another favorite, Emily D. She speaks to one of the Big Themes I've struggled with forever. Forgiving. Forgetting. What we know. and What we remember. Here she is. Maybe for your pocket. She'll be in mine. ((Send me your poems too. I'm always glad to have as many poems as I can in my large pocket.))
