Episode Description from the Publisher

*Patreon and Substack-only bonus episode teaser, click here for the full episode*Happy National Poetry Month! We’re celebrating by bringing back another installment of Poetry Therapy, which is a bonus episode we did back in 2024. If you've ever felt like you didn’t “get it” when it comes to poetry, we've got five incredible poets who can help: José Olivarez, Cortney Charleston, Camonghne Felix, Nate Marshall, and Yesika Zamora. Each poet has selected a poem to break down with me—they'll read it, discuss what they notice and how it works, and talk about why it excites them. Whether you love poetry, don’t understand it, or are somewhere in between, this episode is for you.You can find links to everything we discuss on today’s show on The Stacks Website: https://www.thestackspodcast.com/unabridged/2026/4/17/tsu-58-poetry-therapy-2Connect with José: Instagram | Twitter | Website | SubstackConnect with Cortney: Instagram | Website | Threads | BlueskyConnect with Camonghne: Instagram | Threads | Substack | Twitter/XConnect with Nate: Instagram | Website | SubstackConnect with Yesika: Instagram | Website | Substack | ThreadsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
