As I am recording this episode, we are in the middle of the holiday of Samhain, a holiday with Gaelic roots celebrating the end of the harvest season and the beginning of the darker half of the year. As we enter this time of darkness and cold, with more isolation on the horizon and the world’s hunkering down seeing no end yet, I hope that this week’s poems by Caterina Alvarez, Astha Khanduri, Helen Bowie, and Aura Martin give you a bit of light in the emerging darkness.
