The Slowdown: Poetry & Reflection Daily
Arts:Performing Arts
Today’s poem is Life In The Gush Of Boasts by Elijah Burrell.
The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “Most writers are not “All eyes on me,” but the psychology of the social media “like” and “follower” becomes validation, it seems, between books.”
