Today’s poem is Palinode by Lisa Low.
The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Maggie writes … “Today’s poem is a kind of poem called a palinode. In a palinode, a writer changes her mind by retracting a viewpoint expressed in one of their earlier pieces of writing. Today’s poem makes us consider how we write about other people. It “flip-flops,” in a sense, but it certainly does so in an effective and artful way.”
