15: Everything is going to be alright by Derek Mahon.

This is the last episode of the season one, and as we are heading into a long winter of uncertainty I decided that the last poem of the season should be one of hope and consolation. So this week I will look at the poem Everything is going to be alright, by the recently deceased Derek Mahon. This poem is reached a global audience online during the early days of the pandemic's outbreak when Andrew Scott read it.  As a final treat, I will also read to you my latest poem, This too shall pass, which was inspired by this poem and the ancient Arabian proverb which hinted at the transient nature of life, but in this poem, its application is narrowed down to days of suffering. I hope you enjoy it. To read the poem, as usual click on the big large <a href="https://www.poetrybooks.co.uk/blogs/news/poem-a-day-everything-is-going-to-be-all-right">HERE</a>.

14: Reverse Suicide by Matt Rasmussen

Okay, a little advance warning, this poem looks at the topic of suicide, but this poem deals with the way we cope when we hear of the sad loss of a family member and the way we sometimes think about the pointless deaths of those we love. In this poem, we are taken from the moment when two brothers are clearing leaves as they fall from the garden to the father selling the car one in which the always present sibling has shot himself in. However, it is done with a twist.  To read the poem, click <a href="http://poeminabox.blogspot.com/2013/03/poem-31-matt-rasmussen.html">HERE</a>.

13: The Day Lady Died by Frank O' Hara

This week we go back in time to the work of a poet who was a famed member of the New York School of poets. This poem recounts the day that Billie Holiday died and recounts the events of that day from the poet's point of view. This poem was part of the Lunch Poems.  It is an example of an elegy, but without the deep lamentations so commonly used in elegies.  There are a few things about this poem that I love, and why I want to share it with you this week, so listen along as I explain why I think, you should read this poem if you haven't already.  To read the poem, click <a href="https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/42657/the-day-lady-died">HERE</a>. Click <a href="https://blog.bestamericanpoetry.com/the_best_american_poetry/2013/05/frank-ohara-reads-the-day-lady-died-and-other-poems-in-1966.html">HERE</a> to watch Frank O'Hara read the poem.

To see the covers of the New World Writing and New York Post mentioned in this poem, go <a href="https://newyorkschoolpoets.wordpress.com/2013/06/10/a-visual-footnote-to-oharas-the-day-lady-died-new-world-writing-and-the-poets-of-ghana/">HERE</a> The cover photo for this week's episode is a picture of Billie Holiday singing at Storyville in Boston in 1959. The photo was taken by Mel Levine.  To learn more about my writing then you can check out the link <a href="https://t.co/lzERcaDaPL?amp=1">HERE</a>.
