by Nancy Dillingham (Author)
William Carlos Williams said, "It is difficult to get the news from poems/yet men die miserably every day/for lack/of what is found there." But what if the "news" of the poem is also the "news" of the day? Nancy Dillingham finds life-affirming truths among the turmoil that haunts our headlines from the 1950s to the Uvalde tragedy.
