Pantoum

I was listening to The American Poetry Review Podcast on Spotify yesterday, the interview with Dorothy Chan on her triple sonnets, "Ways, Shapes, and Forms". The podcast also touches on the pantoum form, which I've been wanting to try my hand at for a few years, but just haven't gotten around to it. I finally did today.

Just a quick highlight, The APR is also hosting their annual Kunitz poetry prize for younger poets with a deadline of May 15th. You can view the submission guidelines here.

Here is my very small pantoum, my first attempt:

Love Enough

be

gone

can't

dive
