Interview transcript:

Henry Burkhardt: Hey Spartan poets welcome back to the poetry podcast with Henry Burkhardt, bringing you the finest student poetry every week every Friday. Today we’ll be talking to senior James Montague about his poem entitled “Passion.”

James Montague: We as humans must learn to love. So much hate. So much hurt. Too many not embracing the dove. Yet why is there this temptation. What drives so many to maim. A circle of violence unbroken. Just adding fuel to the flame.

HB: Thank you, James, for that insightful reading. I found that poem very touching. Make sure to tune in next week for another insightful reading, and with that, have a very poetic day.
