Join Julie Murphy and Dion O'Reilly for a conversation that moves through love, loss, and wonder — from Yeats’ “The Wild Swans at Coole” to Andrea Cohen’s sharp humor in Something, Richard Siken's quiet reflections in “Kitchen Window,” and the stargazing tenderness of Keith Wilson's “there aren’t enough idioms about the stars.” We’ll also talk about Gabrielle Calvocoressi’s moving “Miss you. Would like to grab that chilled tofu we love” and the poignant beauty of Connie Leung's “Autumn in Prison.” These poems remind us how language can hold both the ache and the brightness of being alive.
