POETICS Podcast: Amy Wright's "Full Snow Moon" & the Power of White Space
Why does white space on the page make so many poets nervous? In this episode, we explore Amy Wright’s chapbook “Wildlife” and her poetry that trusts silence, embraces the margin, and lets the page breathe. We dig into why some poems pack every line tight while others invite readers into the open spaces. If you’ve ever wondered what a poem leaves unsaid – and why that matters – this one’s for you.
