For episode 17, we talk with writer Lisa Bickmore about her re-released book of poetry "Haste." Originally published by Signature Books in 1994, it is now back in print to commemorate Lisa's appointment as Utah Poet Laureate. In this interview, we delve into what it's like for Lisa to revisit her words almost 30 years later, and how poetry can provide shelter and hope. Lisa takes us back in time with her vivid writing when she reads "Small Fires" from her collection, and she explains what her vision will be as she begins her tenure as Utah Poet Laureate.
