Let's kick off the week w/a poem by Dasha!

We tell about ourselves
About each other
About days dissolved

#WayBackWednesday to when Dasha was named Wisconsin Poet Laureate for 2019-2021 by the Wisconsin Poet Laureate Commission (@MilwaukeePubLib). She joins Marilyn L. Taylor as the only poet to have held both positions.
