from The Slowdown: Poetry & Reflection Daily Hosted by American Public Media

Today’s poem is Scheduling the Bone Scan by Katie Farris. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Maggie writes… “I know our hearing involves sound waves and the structures of the ear, but I wouldn’t have been able to explain it in depth or draw you a diagram. So I did a little research, and as I suspected, there is plenty of poetry — by which I mean music and mystery — in the science.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.
