This week’s theme on Playlist Poet was New York. Your DJ here, R.Story, is really looking forward to a choir trip right after graduation in June to sing at Carnegie Hall, and decided to choose this theme since it was on my mind.
(You can access more tracks on the playlist by clicking in the upper right corner, or follow the link on the bottom left to watch on YouTube itself.)
This week, I only shared one poem, and a portion of a larger one, at that. It was portions 3-5 of Walt Whitman’s “Crossing Brooklyn Ferry”, which can be read in full at this link, if one is inclined: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/45470/crossing-brooklyn-ferry
