Torn by Ada Limón
Words That Burn - Un podcast de Benjamin Collopy
Do you ever feel at odds with yourself or the world around you? I think it's an unavoidable truth of being human to be torn on occasion. U.S Poet Laureate Ada Limón has certainly felt and recognised this in others. In this poem, Torn, Limón examines the nature of division and dichotomy through an unusual image; a dead snake. This dead snake becomes a treatise for the poet to explore how separation from yourself can feel but also a way in which we might find our way back to a sense of wholeness once more.Irish Podcast Awards Listeners Choice: https://www.theirishpodcastawards.ie/vote/Show notes: https://wordsthatburn.substack.com/p/torn-by-ada-limon?sd=pfTwitter: https://twitter.com/wordsthatburn?t=p7rGkfElfHZ_8ua0mvsB9A&s=09Website: https://wordsthatburnpodcast.com/workInstagram: https://instagram.com/wordsthatburnpodcast?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=Light Blue by Alan Špiljak: https://alanspiljak.com/ Hosted on Acast.
