1. Either sprawled over the entire couch or in bed
2. I have a bad habit of just memorizing the place-ish I stopped and flipping around until I find where I was 😬
3. Why I can stop anytime
4. Occasionally I‘ll drink tea or wine
5. No, but I like to put on ocean or rain noises
6. Several
7. Everywhere
8: Only out loud for poetry
9. Oh yeah I‘m hella impatient
10. A bit of both
11. I haven‘t since I did my thesis
12. Anyone that wants to 🤗

Loving these lectures on poetry and life

"Robert Frost never wrote a nature poem. He said that. Meaning: there's more to me than trees and birds. Meaning: there's more to trees and birds and I know that, so that means there's more to me, too."

What if one of our best poets told us how to write poems but really she told us how to fully live?
