do that poetry thing with nuance and rigor

from The Line Break · host Bob Sykora and Chris Corlew

Poetry helps us see the world. Whether it's giving permission to look closer or making us see old things anew, a few surprising language choices and enjambments can really alter yr brain. This week, Bob reads "cellular memory" by Mónica Teresa Ortiz, Chris reads "Pastoral, 1992" by Joe Wilkins, and the guys talk about whether the new NBA broadcasters are working out or not.
