Reading Emily Dickinson
I was browsing through Poetry Daily and clicked on a link to this article, by Sandra Lim, and found this image:
Having just spent February writing peace postcard poems and sending them out daily (yes, that is a thing), having spent a good deal of my adult life obsessing about Emily Dickinson, I felt as though Sandra was speaking directly to me.
“Make it new,” Ezra Pound said. But that’s what the best poetry always does.
Lim’s article includes (in the yellow box) a writing prompt. So excuse me while I go scribble (some more).
