Today’s poem is What I Am Telling You, Jessica, Is That Those Chickens Are Fine by K.T. Landon.


The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Maggie writes… “Several of our neighbors have backyard coops, and occasionally we’re offered fresh eggs. Unfortunately, the raccoons and possums (and maybe even a fox) have encountered the chickens, too. There are fewer now.”
