Poems

Talk of Alaska Host Steve Heimel

There was a time when Americans memorized their favorite poems, but this year they are carrying them in their pockets.  How alive is poetry these days?  Whether it’s a classic, a slam performance, a bit of Robert Service or a haiku tweet, Alaskans will be sharing their favorite poems to kick off National Poetry Month, on the next Talk of Alaska.
