1462: Perspective, Coyoacán by Corey Van Landingham

Today’s poem is Perspective, Coyoacán by Corey Van Landingham. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Maggie writes… “Today’s poem is an ekphrastic poem, a poem inspired by a piece of art. It opens with an epigraph that is a quote by Frida Kahlo. It strikes me now, reading that line of hers, that while she’s talking about painting herself, it can also refer to writing about oneself.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.
