What do you feel poetry can accomplish that other forms can’t?
Good poetry invites us to lean in, to be better listeners. The succinctness of it, the sparseness, leaves space for emotional truths that we may otherwise reject. It bypasses the mind, enters the body and awakens the parts of us that have been sleepwalking through life. It reminds us that other ways of knowing not only exist but are essential to our well-being.
