Welcome to an imaginary poetry festival by the lake. Now
the moon is hazy in the wet sky, I’ll start the reading with a
letter to Yongyu (who also introduced me to lots of the songs
in this episode, thank you). We welcome Marianne Moore,
Lucie Brock-Broido, Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge, Sylvia Plath to
the stage, until somewhere deep in the forest, a firework
breaks, & we start to run, while still reciting the poems. As if
that poem is a spell which invokes the moon, the moon shows
itself, along with the final reading by Donald Hall, who reads
his late wife Jane Kenyon’s words, retelling the memory
of the poem, with ultimate
Love.
