When you require renewal, is there a particular poem or book that you return to? A particular author?
I love to read Ada Limon’s Bright Dead Things. The first poem in the collection always makes my heart gallop because the poem, “How to Triumph Like a Girl,” has such swagger and grace in language and images. I will often read this poem more than a thousand times (yes, an exaggeration--! I just love it so much though) because it is a reminder of what poetry should feel like, both in my head and heart.
