Episode description
Today’s poem is Brooklyn is for Breakups by Chen Chen. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual.
In this episode, guest host Myka Kielbon writes… “I have experienced a whole lot of life, and romance only forms threads of that life, woven into all the other moments. The threads are often short. They have loose ends. What I struggle with – what I’ve struggled with for years – is naming the importance of the relationships I’ve had with people that don’t fit neatly into a category.”
