GILLIAN - 'What the Living Do' by Marie Howe

‘What the Living Do’ by Marie Howe

I listen to Pod-casts, Audible books and NPR all day everyday. About once a month, an interview on Fresh Air will stop me dead in my tracks. Poet Marie Howe read, “What the Living Do”. In this poem she captured what I so often think of: “This is the everyday we spoke of.”

I recommend listening to Ms. Howe on Fresh Air or checking out her work in The Penguin Anthology of 20^th Century American Poetry.
