Lana Crossman : part three

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

The poetry I like best makes a connection but in a non-prescriptive way. It makes you feel but doesn’t tell you how to feel, why you’re feeling that way, or what to do with that feeling.  We’re surrounded by so much “content” and processing it all feels like a bit of a sentence. Poetry feels like freedom – a few, well-chosen words and lots of open windows.
