Today’s poem is Immersive by Joseph Millar. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual.

In this episode, Major writes… “Poetry reorients me, does the work of humanizing, of not letting me devolve to despair. Its insistence on staying present, on paying attention, on speaking to the beauty in nature and the beauty in us, renews my faith.”
