Throughout history, poets have been inspired to make curly hair a focus of their work. As someone who has made her life’s work revolve around curly hair, I can understand why.
Curls have been used as a symbol of romance, charm and beauty. Listen to the minisode for verses from Hafez, Rumi, Ovid and some modern poets.
In the episode, I mention “Hair” by Elizabeth Acevedo. And I promise to post a video of Acevedo’s own recitation of it here. So here you go:
Please send me your favorite poems about hair.
A few days back, we recorded an interview with a huge guest I am so thrilled about. She said yes to my cold DM. Always shoot your shot. People who believe in your idea will say yes.
That episode will publish in a couple weeks. We have some more behind the scenes stories coming for you as well.
