SHAKE THE DUST

If you know me, there's always been a place for poetry in my heart, and a whole dedicated section on my bookshelf. Where the classics of Frost and Ginsberg are always a go to, the spoken word of the likes of Bradley Hathaway, Sarah Kay, and Andrew Gibson are the ones I can recite at will. Today is National Poetry Day to our friends across the pond. And in honor of that, I'd like to share a word that forces me to shake, rattle, and roll. It's a personal favorite by Anis Mojgani, although he has so many other good poems out there, it's hard to choose. This is Shake the Dust.
