About this episode
One Poem Only is a daily poetry podcast offering a quiet moment with a single poem—read aloud, without analysis or noise. This month on One Poem Only, I’m revisiting poems that stayed with me long after recording them. Some became listener favorites; others quietly became favorites of my own. One Poem Only Revisited is an invitation to return—to listen again, reflect, and discover what feels different now. This week I'm reading poems I wish I'd written. You simply need to listen to discovery why. Today’s poem is "this is not a poem (exactly)" by Tess Ezzy. Read the full poem on Substack.
