Matthew Arnold's "The Buried Life"
from The Daily Poem · host Sean Johnson
Today’s poem is a frank examination of words and their paradoxical power to create and destroy intimacy, bringing forth the deepest self or walling it off–and what is possible when we make the best use of them. Happy reading. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe
