Phoebe Anson : part four

What do you feel poetry can accomplish that other forms can’t?

I think there’s a freedom with poetry that allows you to explore so much. My work is quite experimental and tends to explore the space of the page frequently. Poetry allows for me to do this and present a visual aspect as well as the language. In poetry, I can explore a single idea or thought or an entire philosophical concept with the freedom to present it however I wish. Poetry is constantly being developed, deconstructed and rebuilt, and it’s fascinating to see the variety of ways this is done. Poems can look completely different to one another and yet still both be valid ways of writing.
