Lyric Life

Imagistic poetry is tough. It doesn't have that storytelling structure which gives us easy access to its emotional space. But this poem, James Miller's "Song in Flood Time," is just not to be missed. It's modern, current, evocative. Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as I try to do it justice. I found this poem by accident--or almost. I found it in a tweet from SCOUNDREL TIME, an online journal, part of their "land and weather" series. I read it--and couldn't stop rereading it. So it's here in the podcast Lyric Life. I hope you find its emotional space as glorious as I do.
