“Meraki is a modern Greek word which means to put something of yourself into what you’re doing: passion, love, creativity, all the good stuff and only the good stuff.”In this episode of Meraki Radio: Perspectives, Alonna Shaw joins Alison B for an exploration of Alison B's poetry experiment “Love Travels.” This collection of poems originated as a letter-a-day mailed to her husband while she was on the East Coast and he was at home on the West Coast. Alonna reads poems, Alison comments and reads a few as well. They discuss what happens when a poem is released. Who determines how it's read?
