Today’s poem is I Worry My Mother Will Die and I Will Know Nothing by Asa Drake.
The Slowdown is currently taking a break. We’ll be back on Monday, August 18 with episodes from our new host, Maggie Smith. This week, we’re going back into the archive to revisit Ada Limón’s time as host.
In this episode, Ada writes… “Today’s poem centers on ideas of hunger and fullness. It asks what can satisfy us in a world that is often telling us we are not enough and will never have enough.”
