POETRY
Poetry plays where imagination and reality meet. It makes meaning of mayhem. Gives voice to the invisible and broken. Offers grace amidst the chaos. Poetry reintroduces us to our deepest longings. Provides a margin for our spirits. Christian Wiman says, “Let us remember...that in the end we go to poetry for one reason, so that we might more fully inhabit our lives and the world in which we live them, and that if we more fully inhabit these things, we might be less apt to destroy both.”
