‘Why do we quickly dismiss our ancient ones? Before our phones
stole the light of our faces, shiny and blue in the televised night,

they worked farms and butchered and trapped animals and swept houses and returned to each other after long hours and told stories.’

Lovely

I listened to this and it was very pretty and well written. I think I'd enjoy revisiting it in print so I can see the way the poems lay on the page. Lots of birds references and nature feel to it.

Read “The Carrying” sometime last year and I’ve read a few different poems by Limón, and I’m not shocked at how beautiful and painful these poems were.
