Just adding for clarity: Addonizio was born in 1954. The poem appears to be copyrighted in 2000.
Thanks! It is powerful for 2000; I was blown away by the idea of it being written in 1954.
Kim still puts collections out too, reading her latest.
Please keep curating poems like these. I think this is the third or fourth poem I’ve read since joining lemmy that’s reminded me to get back into reading poetry.
Can do! I read at least 5-10 a day.
