    “One Word”: The poems on today’s show implicitly urge us to consider how strange language is when we examine it up close. Each of today’s poems puzzle over an individual word. Billy Collins, “Tension,” from Aimless Love: New and Selected Poems (Random House, 2013). Shakespeare, “Sonnet 135.” Robert Wrigley, “Lovely,” from The True Account of Myself as a Bird (Penguin Books, 2022), used by kind permission of the author. The show’s theme music is Philip Aaberg’s “Going-to-the-Sun,” from his CD Live from Montana (sweetgrassmusic.com) and used with the kind permission of Philip Aaberg.
