Thank you to @maggiesmithpoet.bsky.social and to the production team of #TheSlowdown for featuring "Amalgam" on its daily podcast today at www.slowdownshow.org and to #Plume and editor #DanielLawless for first publishing the poem. What a treat, to hear your work read by a pro in a real sound studio!
A poem as a plea for efficacy and awareness during a time of destruction, written with heart-opening compassion. We thank The Slowdown, one of the wonderful poetry partners we’re honored to help support, for introducing us to this poem. #theslowdown #poetry #poets #writing #poetrycommunity

Such a great poem by #BarbaraRas on #TheSlowdown today. I've taught it for years & weep every time.

Listened to #TheSlowdown w/ #MajorJackson reading “Big Purple Peonies” but at 1.5x speed, I heard “Big Purple Panties.” It became a different poem.
