Poetic Gatherings: Volume One
Favorite Poems Found On Medium This Week
I’ve been meaning to do this for a while now. Poets have found a home on Medium and I’ve always wanted to highlight and share the poems I enjoy most.
Medium poets cover poetry’s full range of styles, forms, and experience. My goal is simply to collect and highlight those expressed in delightful or challenging ways. Lines and images that make me think differently.
This week, Ema Dumitru’s “Shoe Bites” and the line:
Boots stomp / in the ash of an old self is full of truth. The title pulled me in, in that odd and challenging way only poetry can.
“The Last Stop is Ataraxia” has an arresting title, by Debdutta Pal. The images conjured by darkness that is wholly mine and fire-breathing custodians are equally interesting.
