- Synopsis
- Forget what you learned about poetry in school (that it's complex, opaque, a problem to be solved in 1,500 words due tomorrow). Poetry is the last preserve of honest speech and the outspoken heart. It holds the cadence of common life. It has a passion for truth and justice and liberty-the spirit that has kept the American porch light lit through dark ages of history. And the meaning of poetry is to give courage.
