In this podcast, we have a conversation with poet Bill Ehrhart, whose new poetry book, “Smart Fish Don’t Bite,” serves as a testament to a life fully examined. While Ehrhart's identity is often intertwined with the war—a theme he explores but resists being solely defined by—the discussion reveals a writer whose poetry grapples with a vast range of human experience, from the nostalgic innocence of childhood and the enduring comfort of love and friendship to sharp, satirical critiques of modern politics. The interview traces his unconventional path to becoming a writer, sustained by his wife's support and his own determination to prioritize art over career, and evolves into a broader philosophical reflection on memory, aging, and finding perspective in the face of political and personal turmoil, all punctuated by readings of his evocative and powerful poems. Ehrhart is a Marine Corps veteran who served in the Vietnam War and was involved with Vietnam Veterans Against the War. He has authored numerous books of prose and poetry, such as "Vietnam-Perkasie: a Combat Marine Memoir" and "Thank You for Your Service: Collected Poems." He is a prominent interview subject in the 2017 PBS documentary by Ken Burns, “The Vietnam War.” Ehrhart earned a PhD from the University of Wales at Swansea and worked for many years as a Master Teacher of English and History at the Haverford School for Boys, retiring in 2019. 0:00 - Introduction to Bill Ehrhart 16:17 - Poem: "Eating Oysters in Easton" 24:24 - Poem: "Things My Mother Gave Me" 30:54 - Poem: "Night Stalkers" 38:11 - Poem: "On Smedley Butler's Grave" 44:46 - Poem: "Cycling at Vésinet" 48:28 - Discussion on Politics & Poem: "Soup Can Blues" 53:38 - Poem: "MAGA Voter's Lament" 55:30 - Philosophical Discussion on History & Democracy Get the Book: https://moonstone-arts-center.square....
