Philly Loves Poetry Interview and Readings Series on PhillyCAM

There is so much to grieve for now. Deaths of loved ones. Death of human contact and some semblance of normalcy. Deaths of our dreams for the world, the earth, for ourselves, and for others. As a poet whose husband died recently, in the midst of this pandemic, I know first-hand how poetry can contain the uncontainable and allow us to say the unsayable.  Amy Small-McKinney

Amy Small-McKinney’s poems have been published in numerous journals including American Poetry Review, The Indianapolis Review, and Pedestal Magazine and she has been a guest editor for Pedestal Magazine. Her second full-length book of poems, Walking Toward Cranes, won the Kithara Book Prize 2016. Small-McKinney has an MS in Clinical Neuropsychology from Drexel University and an MFA in Poetry from Drew University and she teaches community poetry workshops and private students. 

Charles S. Carr, Host
