In Episode 29, Kate and her guest, poet Valerie Anthony, meander deep into the woods of metaphor, asking how the words a society stumbles into by misadventure shape the images we form of ourselves as humans. Discussing the gospel for the Feast of Saint Francis de Sales, 14th century poet Dafydd ap Gwilym's 'The Woodland Mass,' and choosing to replace machine metaphors with green metaphors, Val and Kate find hope in the small and fleeting, in naming the forgotten wildflowers, and in flashes of Christ's Light in dark places. With an original poem by Valerie Anthony called 'Everyday Miracles 1'.Mentioned in the episode is Sarah de Nordwall's Bard School.
