[aired:] Monday, December 28, 2020 || WCBN-FM, Ann Arbor
[show notes:] Hey there listener! Today's theme is—well there isn't one today! This is my last show for a while, since I'll be starting a six-month research fellowship in Vienna in January. I hope you enjoy this themeless mix, and I hope you'll tune back in this summer, when I'll be bringing back Lunch Poems with a fresh new coat of paint, including original recordings and author interviews.
In addition to the songs in the tracklist, you'll hear: "To Misunderstanding," by Rick Hilles (read by the author); "Pecola's Juggernaut," by Linda Susan Jackson; "Voiceover" by Rita Dove; "The Swimming Lesson," by Lis Fertig (me!); and "Blackberrying," by Sylvia Plath.
