Poet Talk

3 — Poet Talk about Dogs

Jody Chan & Sanna Wani

In this episode of Poet Talk, Jody and Sanna dive into one of our favourite topics: dogs. What kind of poems would a dog write? How do they see (or smell) the world? The duo share their favourite dog poems and earliest dog memories. From protest dogs to canine colonial history, Eileen Myles to Mary Oliver, join us as we talk play, mastery, grief, devotion, freedom and more.
