Notes on the selections: It’s been a year.

Links to the poems and the original episodes below. From “Read By: Terrance Hayes” - “Things No One Knows,” by Wanda Coleman From “Read By: Louise Erdrich” - “Manhattan Is a Lenape Word,” by Natalie Diaz From “Read By: Douglas Kearney” - “Big Thicket, Pastoral,” by Douglas Kearney From “Read By: Ada Limón” - “From the Other Side” and “The Dwelling Places” by Alejandra Pizarnik From “Read By: Tina Chang” - “Things I Didn't Know I Loved,” by Nâzım Hikmet Music: “Shift of Currents” by Blue Dot Sessions // CC BY-NC 2.0
