Katherine Lawrence : part three

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

I don’t believe that poetry sets out to accomplish, succeed, complete or finish anything. Perhaps that’s why I love poetry. It lives in the margins. Poetry is never sure of itself, yet a good poem will suggest an opening, a way to hold what cannot be said in the speech of common hours.
