So April's poetry selection did not go very well -- mostly in the sense that I never even cracked this thing open. As I've mentioned, the month of April was mostly a vacation from reading for me, and if I'm not motivated to read an Elena Ferrante novel, I'm certainly not motivated to read poetry, which is already a bit of a struggle. The saddest thing of all is that EdX had a course on Emily Dickinson that I signed up for and then failed to participate in, so this was actually a double failure. The questions now is whether I should shake it off and move on to some other poet who is perhaps more inspiring, or double-down and call Emily Dickinson my "April-May" poetry selection.
