[encore] 1175: Hunger by Kelli Russell Agodon

The Slowdown: Poetry & Reflection Daily

Today’s poem is Hunger by Kelli Russell Agodon.


Last spring, we asked our community to submit poems that have helped you slow down in your lives. This week we’re revisiting these selections. Today’s selection was submitted by Jeannine from Washington.


In this episode, Major writes… “What is it about this stage of dating that has us turn off the radar, render us blind to the red flags, to what we hope our instincts should catch? We become wild in our desperation to present ourselves as worthy of love. Our passionate hearts render us prey to the lost souls who present facades of well-being.”
