The final episode of Season 3: Living Through Poetry is in and in this episode we further our discussion of poetry by talking about what makes a poem's ending good versus what makes it fall flat. This episode covers Instagram Poetry Syndrome which is when poets write for what's popular instead of writing from their heart. And I share a poem I wrote for Instagram and contrast it to a poem that I wrote with all my spirit imbued into it. 

This then culminates into a conversation around death, because death itself is a perfect ending that physical beings arrive to and then cease to exist. We briefly cover the Tibetan and Egyptian Books of the Dead while I also share my perspective on dying and how we can practice dying every day.

Thank you for tuning in, the podcast will return in March!
