We've been thinking about some great first lines of poems. What makes them great and how do we get there? In this discussion, we touch upon poems by Brigit Pegeen Kelly, Eduardo C. Corral, Brenda Shaughnessy, and Elizabeth Bishop. We also have readings from the magazine by Kayleb Rae Candrilli, Katie Condon, and Dana Isokawa.
