Transformations | Anne Sexton
post image

#NationalPoetryDay Day 17: My favorite book by Anne Sexton is Transformations. A collection of Brothers Grimm retellings with a feminist edge. Years ago I saw an amazing production that incorporated several into a cohesive play. Incredible. Link to full poem:

Happy #NationalPoetryDay! While this may not be a poem by Poe, it was inspired by him many years after his poems came to fruition. In the spirit of this day and of the Halloween season I share with you all The Old Victorian Basement by @KennethTolesJr . Check the whole poem out and if you'd rather listen to it, play the audio. Enjoy! http://www.kennethtolesjr.com/the-old-victorian-basement 💀👻🙀

#nationalpoetryday This is my newest and only poetry book I own. I love reading poetry but rarely find myself buying them. This one is very modern and fresh. The one I put into this speaks to me most in my current life state. #muchlove #poeticappeal #staybeautiful

Happy #nationalpoetryday! If you get the chance to check out Poetry Speaks, it's pretty cool. It includes a CD of poets reading their work, including Langston Hughes, Sylvia Plath, T.S. Eliot, Walt Whitman, Ezra Pound, and my favorite poet- Gwendolyn Brooks. (!)

Libby1 I'm originally from the Chicago area and met Gwendolyn Brooks in the 90s at my high school! 7y
