It was so much to go through the archives looking for the perfect poems! Go see them at @IRideMDT.
I’m curating poems to run on @IRideMDT as part of my Miami Moves Me project. My latest collaboration is with @SWWIMmiami and features the amazing @LynneBarrett! 🩵

I can’t stop thinking, tonight, about this Louise Glück poem, just astounded at how sad it is, and yet still how in love with the world
