Today’s poem is I Tune My Body and My Brain to the Music of the Land by Natalie Shapero.The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “I wonder how much of our authentic selves are lost in the belief that we are stronger collectively, when we adhere this way, to a set of civic virtues that may not fully align with our worldview. Is there a part of us that wishes to express something different? How might we look within, and no longer seek social affirmation?” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.
