Hey friends, Mary Karr and I have started a YouTube video series called Poetry Fix. . Twice a week on Mondays and Fridays we’ll upload a 2-4 minute video where we read a poem and briefly discuss it. We’re trying to pimp poetry for average humans. Any feedback is appreciated. We hope you enjoy. And if you do, consider joining and (@marykarrlit) for more updates. Also, please forward and spread the word! Share this: Related Posts Poetry Fix Episode 1: Robert Hass.

Do I mean an essay about literature?)—I’m rambling here, and you’re welcome. I’m doing my best to adjust to the conventions of the medium. Please forgive this paragraph break.
