#61: A comeback with the gentle wonder of Mary Oliver

#61: A comeback with the gentle wonder of Mary Oliver

I read two poems by Mary Oliver this week titled - "Mysteries, Yes" and "Percy (Nine)". I have been away for a couple of months and in this time I have been slow reading the volume Devotions - Selected poems by Mary Oliver. Her poems have a way of slipping into your day without attracting any atten…

#60: A Jewish Indian poet on Farewells and Weddings

#60: A Jewish Indian poet on Farewells and Weddings

I read two poems by Nissim Ezekiel this week titled - "Goodbye Party for Miss Pushpa T. S." and "Jewish Wedding in Bombay". Nissim is an iconic Indian poet, most active in the decades right after India's Independence. I find his poems delightful, raw postcards from a time in Bombay that I haven't s…

#59: Inspiration in solitude - Billy Collins says how

#59: Inspiration in solitude - Billy Collins says how

I read a poem by Billy Collins this week titled - "Advice to Writers". It's a short and clear poem that lays out a day in the life of a writer and how he creates the space outside and within to invite inspiration. One that you can use no matter what profession you are in. The poem is a reminder of …

#58: An episode of self-indulgence where I read myself

Perhaps you won't find them entirely disappointing. Listen in! :) Hopeful is available on my blog here Some of my other published work is linked from this link.tree page.

#57: Two poems - Death as a habit and Prayer is Attention

#57: Two poems - Death as a habit and Prayer is Attention

I read two poems this week by Mary Oliver. She is the one poet who always finds the right words to articulate the moment. In this episode I read - "Every Morning" which contextualises death and how we become used to it. The second poem is "The Real Prayers Are Not The Words But The Attention That C…

#56: When you feel like you occupy too much space, read this poem

#56: When you feel like you occupy too much space, read this poem

I read "Keeping Things Whole" by Mark Strand. This poem is one of my absolute favourites, the sort you scribble on a piece of paper and keep in your purse. A reminder that we all fragment, that we all also cause others to fragment, and then we moe. We move, we heal. Listen in!   The poem I read is …

#55: The sisterhood of the female experience over prices of kerosene

#55: The sisterhood of the female experience over prices of kerosene

I read "The female of the species" by Gauri Deshpande. Last episode we read about flying penises that don't quite fly. This episode is an epic Indian confessional poet writing about the daily experience of being a woman and finding comfort in mundane domesticity with a community of other women.  Li…

S2E4: A Flying Penis (I swear I am not making this up)

S2E4: A Flying Penis (I swear I am not making this up)

Or when it doesn't? In this episode, I read "Lorena" by Lucille Clifton. Short, wicked poem that is fun just as it is but that is important if you really look. Saying anything more is to give away the poem. Listen in!  The poem I read is from: https://www.theparisreview.org/poetry/1598/lorena-lucil…

S2E3: Penniless and Rich - A vagabond poet on payday

S2E3: Penniless and Rich - A vagabond poet on payday

In this episode, I read "$$$$$$" by Charles Bukowski. It's a lyrical poem, rather fun if you don’t take it seriously. But I urge you to take it seriously. To listen to it once for the poem itself, and then another one for the voice of the poet, for what he is really saying. Listen in! The poem I re…

S2E2: Who is normal? Are you? Then you are just fine.

S2E2: Who is normal? Are you? Then you are just fine.

In this episode, I read "Fine" by Kim Addonizio. It's a short poem and complements the poem Peers that I read in Episode 1 really well. Peers was about looking back at time, this one is set in the present and an incisive look at the present at that. It may feel morbid but listen to the alternative …
