Poetry Unbound

NOTE

Creating is Harder than Destroying

Breaking things is often perceived as easier than creating and nurturing them, especially in the context of conflict resolution. Making progress, fostering reparation, or instigating positive change requires time, tenderness, vulnerability, and collaboration. This process, while challenging, emphasizes the potential and growth in fragile beginnings. Poetry serves as a metaphor for this journey; it reflects the complexities of public life and conflict while promoting an imaginative approach rather than imposing strict rules. The essence of poetry lies in its ability to inspire intuition and foster understanding, rather than offering definitive solutions.
