[New-Poetry] Bly on Prairie Home Companion

[Anny Ballardini]

thank you for reminding me of what was once my weekly appointment with Garrison Keillor, was because on Sunday evenings (when I can get the broadcast here where I am at a decent time) I have now tons of things to do. It seems that the broadcast of March 1 will be online in a few days. I love his humor, he reminds me of my grandmother, it is something visceral - if you do not have it there is no way you can invent it -, thanks for bringing it back.

  Anyone hear Bly on Garrison Keillor's show Saturday? Bly was great. He read only 3 or 4 short poems. What a voice...high pitched and kind of nasally...but he really makes the poems work. I liked the way he re-read poems: "Let me give that to you again..."

  I don't see a recording online or I'd point to it. But here's the show's site...
