DOWNHILL

I don’t have a home
and I live there
all the time.

Hello Friends —

Today’s poem is by Julia Vinograd, from Berkeley Street Cannibals: Selected Poems, 1969-1976.

April is National Poetry Month, and I am celebrating by emailing out my own eclectic selection of one poem per day for the duration of the month. If you wish to be unsubscribed from this Poem-a-Day email list at any time, please reply to this email with a friendly unsubscribe request (preferably in heroic couplet form). You may also request to add a consenting friend to the list, or even nominate a poem.
