Poetry and soul

Quite a marked shift from the original poet to the present. Just as the New Yorker has shifted greatly so does the podcast. Both are knowledgeable and insightful but I hope the New Yorker stays true to art and poetry and not modern political divisions, pseudo activism and identity politics. Poetry tends to the soul not the ego.
Wonderful!

Just re-listened to Kwame Dawes episode re the Walcott poem- such a lovely interlude- Kevin Young draws out the sublime and humane from the poets and it’s just a reward to listen to gorgeous poems and smart and sometimes joyful commentary
Great !
