Today’s poem is Sleeping with the Chihuahua by Tami Haaland.The Slowdown is currently taking a break. We’ll be back soon with new episodes from a new host. This week, we’re going back into the archive to revisit Tracy K. Smith’s time as host. Today’s episode was originally released on November 28 2019. In this episode, Tracy writes… “Today’s poem describes the joy of falling asleep next to someone you love. Because whether you’re snuggled in with pets, people, or some combo of the two, it’s bliss when love makes you into a pack.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.
