About this listen

Connor and his guest, Amanda Diefenbach, tackle the Acrostic form.
They begin by considering the use of poetry as a means to translate mental health issues.

The example poem is a very short original acrostic entitled: "POEM" .

Connor then reads his Acrostic, "WATCH", and Amanda follows with her epic Acrostic "SHE CREATES DEATH".

Amanda and Connor dive deep into the topics of Infertility, adoption, and the treatment of women's heath in America.

PLUGS:
If you want to be Amanda's friend, you can be her friend.
