Welcome to Poetry Friday, hosted today by Elizabeth Steinglass.
One of the coolest things in the Portland area is the Ledding Library which sponsors poetry readings and poetry workshops. I have taken two since October. This Saturday, John Brehm will be holding a workshop, “Poetic Closure”.
So today, a poem by John Brehm:
On the Subway Platform by John Brehm
—for Kate
Where are you going I said
and she said I’m going
to look for a book
and I said what kind
of book? A book on
PERFECTIONISM
she said and I said
make sure you get
the right one—
which brought forth
such perfect laughter
from her perfect heart.
