Description

Bohdan Piasecki is a poet and he listens to people. Well, he has conversations with people, listens to what he’s been told, and then writes a poem for them from the things that he’s been told.

In this podcast, he has conversations with three people and writes three new poems about a special grandchild, the release of speed, and how loving people often means knowing when to let them go.

The conversations are intriguing, the poems are wonderful.
