The finest poetry podcast!
I stumbled on Frank Skinner’s poetry podcast after searching for Beat poetry. As an American I had no idea who Frank Skinner was (apologies from across the pond!), but immediately I was struck by his discerning eye (and ear) for the poem within Ginsberg’s “Sunflower Sutra.” … Many people look at the rhythm of a poem, others the meaning, some the syntax and the form. Frank Skinner illuminates the all this and also the pulsating soul within each poem. I’ve learned from him that a poem (no matter how old) is a living world unto itself, and the more time spent pondering it, the more fruit it yields; just as a fruit tree may take time to flower and fruit, a (great) poem may do the same. Thanks for this absolutely brilliant podcast!

Waoow, I think this podcast is one of the rarest and the best Poetry explication as the way he tells it all in a melodic way. I am moved by Frank’s passion about Poetry; his inspirational and melodic way of telling. Looking forward to listening the next one🤗

Love poetry. Love Franks anecdotes. So basically the perfect combination. Nice to hear an analysis of poems without pretension. Keep it up.
