In this episode, we explore self-portrait poems through the lens of visual art—from “plating poems” to Dante Di Stefano’s haunting idea of “ghost-ekphrasis.” Along the way, we dig into standout work by Hayden Saunier, Donald Hall, Seamus Heaney, Chen Chen, A.K. Ramanujan, Denise Duhamel, and Di Stefano himself—plus we paint an intense detour into Caravaggio. If you love ekphrastic poetry, craft talk, and poems that double as portraits, this one’s for you.
