Ep. 7: A Nest of Stars

hello again,

it’s been a while

this is alone together

I am always fascinated by the ways poetry comes to you.

it always finds you, in multitudinous and multivarious ways

in fact, it would be safe to say. there are as many different ways for poetry to find a poet, as there are for your poems to find me.

todays episode, shows the work of a poet I liked the work of. that’s about it.

no theme, no stimulus word, no prestige... at least not yet. They are a verse maker from North Carolina, the far side of the pond from me. with a hallucinatory and sonically fluid work that I thought looked tasty on the page, but delicious on the ear.

Her Name is Nicole Verrone, and I asked her to read a bit from her Debut nest of stars and tell me a bit about how the poems came to be.

Take a listen.

Ep.4: The Painter of Modern Life

How Locked down are you?

Right now?

Are we shielding?

Do you, like me, keep misplacing your mask?

This is a moment, a strange one to experience.

So it was a pleasure to work with a poet and a poem that captures it. Whether in the form of a photograph. or a glow fly in a bottle.

I can’t tell…

Whether its the campfire,

the neon of the City,

or our phone screens.

But, this is Episode 3.

And it’s Glowing.
