Episode description

Today’s poem is My Father Flying by Jan Beatty. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual.


In this episode, guest host Myka Kielbon writes… “Grief feels, sometimes, like a burden. A heavy one. But it is also a practice. People we love leave this earth, but they don’t leave us. We can find lightness in small rituals, small memorials to share with the world the version of the person that we have folded up inside of ourselves.”
