New Poetry

Each pair of poems inspires a shift from the old way of thinking to the new: from guilt to gratitude, resistance to surrender, and fear to love. The first poem in each pair is dedicated to the old way. The second poem offers a shift in perspective that lovingly illuminates the new.

The Shift’s unique poem pairings uplift the soul by offering a hopeful salve for our collective burnout.
