Poetry is not a “specialized field.” It has universal and eternal value. It is what humans read to each other at weddings and funerals. It takes us into vast spiritual adventures. It enacts original dreams... imagine a stranger who may be reading one of your poems in secret someday...hold love in your heart...work for justice for humans and non-humans.
