Around Town – August 22, 2018
to Courtney McDermott whose poem “Dublin” appeared in the Young Writers Project of the Burlington Free Press on August 10. In it the author wonders whether coming abroad was the right thing to do. She says she has never before felt lonely as she is sitting by herself in a café. She wonders whether she made a mistake but at the end of the poem makes her decision. Read it to see what she decides.
