Happy #NationalPoetryMonth! I think it’s cool that the past two poet laureates have both appeared on the Buddhist magazine Tricycle’s podcast.

son, when you too are one day swallowed
do not allow yourself to be spit out
before asking
where is my nineveh?

April recognizes #NationalPoetryMonth in the U.S. an observance organized thirty years ago by the Academy of American Poets to increase awareness and appreciation of #poetry.

Today we’re listening to @bmop’s collab with @Odysseyopera, Dominick Argento: The Voyage of Edgar Allan Poe, commissioned for the U.S. bicentennial. Charles Nolte’s libretto draws from many Poe works, including several of his poems: “The Bells”; “Ulalume”; and “Annabel Lee”, to name a few / https://bmopsound.bandcamp.com/album/dominick-argento-the-voyage-of-edgar-allan-poe
