Adam Zagaewski, True Life

You. One of my favorite poets, contemporary poets, is Adam Zagoevsky, and I'm not alone. He was beloved as a poet and also as a human being. He died, unfortunately, in 2021. And many of us have been waiting anxiously for his last collection, maybe his last collection, because it really depends on translation, doesn't it? We've been waiting for his last collection to come out in English, because he did write in Polish

"The most pertinent, impressive, meaningful poet of our time." Mary Oliver

"Only poets can live everywhere." #poetry

You. That's an amazing poem. And the reason I say that is it's really visual. It's almost like a film. Like listening to you, you can't help but visualize everything that's being said. And it literally takes you from scene to scene and in this case, sentence to sentence, seamlessly. And it's edited so well. It is what I would call wall to wall. In that way, there's no lull
