Kary Wayson is a poet based in Seattle, WA. The poems Kary’s latest collection, The Slip, are wonderfully slippery in both form and feeling, in a way that demands attention and rewards deep engagement. In our conversation we discussed what a poem can do, how we approach “meaning” in poetry, and how life changes affect our art. Then in the second segment, we talked about time and our human perception of duration.
(Conversation recorded January 5, 2021.)
Bonus Reading: Subscribers to the Likewise Media Patreon campaign can hear Kary read her poem “Untitled Poem (for a Feeling).”
