Circe at the Laundromat / Michelle Holland

Published on March 9, 2025 by Editorial Staff

Michelle submitted one of 3 winning poems in 3rd Wednesday’s annual poetry contest. Here is what contest judge, Marilyn Taylor had to say: “A memorable take on the goddess Circe, who has been brought back to life in the unlovely confines of the Pinch Penny Laundromat. In a single stanza, the poet/observer takes note of some strong similarities between herself and this mythological bringer of magic potions and heavenly bedding, along with the firm (if questionable) conviction that “men are pigs.” Cleverly appropriated from the original legend, this poem is a delight.”
