In this episode I talk with Dave Mehler--a local poet, friend, and poetry mentor-- about how the course of his life was changed by the poetry of Gerard Manley Hopkins. We discuss Hopkins at length and read aloud several of his wild, brilliant, numinous poems.
Dave also shares his advice for how to find your way to the poems that will speak to you.
We went really long, I accidentally sang, and there's more traffic-pet-and-child noise in the background than usual.
Enjoy!
