    When do we EVER have time for Poetry Time on Albums eps anymore? Here’s the written version for you:

    Today’s Poetry Time

    ____________________________________________________



    The Uses of Sorrow


    (In my sleep I dreamed this poem)



    Someone I loved once gave me
    a box full of darkness.


    It took me years to understand
    that this, too, was a gift.




    -by Mary Oliver

    To honor the top 100 albums (and my favorite poet) the poems for the rest of this series will all come from Mary Oliver :)

    ONLY 80 ALBUMS TO GO!!! My word.

    (It occurred to me recently that I’m really going to miss this project once we’re through.)

    Onward and upward we continue.

    Oh it’s a major endeavor, alright.

    I’m going to try to listen to at least 10 albums a week for the rest of the year!

    Yeah, I’m not joking.

    Media, art, and entertainment publication Paste Magazine came out with a list of the 300 best albums and we’re going to go through them all! Well, I’m going to.

    And then we’re going to talk about it! Great tracks, themes, history, info, related artists, cultural context, personal experiences- they’re all going to play a part in these reviews.

    Totally stoked because I love music. (And a little intimidated! Because this is a lot to process)

    -

    If we keep up with an episode per week featuring 10 albums each, we’ll just about finish by the end of 2024.


    -

    Hold close all those important to you and take care of your mental health. Hope you have an amazing and restful weekend!! Stay safe-

    I’ll see you Monday,

    C :)
