<p>In this episode of Each Bring a Poem, the poetic conversation is with Richard Blanco, 5th US inaugural poet. Richard misunderstood the brief and brought his own poem to the party with some ensuing hilarity. But watch his reading make me cry. </p> <p>Well the electronic gremlins got me again, and the sound dropped out in the 2nd half of the podcast. But I am sharing Part One now so can enjoy Richard Blanca’s beautiful poem and check him and the other wonderful poems at the Miami Book Fair.</p> <p>Richard's poem, A Good Day to Die, is in his new book Homeland of My Body. Check out the book and learn more about Richard here https://richard-blanco.com/books/homeland-of-my-body/</p> <p><br></p> <p>Your host, Yael Valencia Aldana, is an Afro-Latinx poet living in South Florida.
