The Slowdown: Poetry & Reflection Daily
Arts:Performing Arts
Today’s poem is Frame Six by Cheswayo Mphanza.
The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “Occasionally, I experience a psychological disconnection between my work, my life, and the world. Finding myself not home, again, my spirit was trending a Willy Loman aesthetic. A ‘disassociation of self’ often reminds me I am due for a reboot.”
