A person with a "situation" turns to poetry for some advice. This week on Snap, we dive into an epic poem to solve a problem with @LuiBeck from @audible_com's “Dear Poetry” podcast. https://t.co/o61rxfs8Ij

[Luisa Beck (she / her) @LuiBeck]

The question I ask every time I read the news (and one for the ages): How do you hold both despair and hope at the same time? In one of my favorite episodes of Dear Poetry, @CherylStrayed answers with the poem “Good Bones” by @maggiesmithpoet. Take a listen on @Audible.

This was so much fun, and I get to employ my knowledge of Alfonsina Storni that I got from my Spanish tutor who assigns me a variety of depressing poets from Latin America
