It simply never was and never will be. Poetry is a spiritual endeavour first, the voice of the universe manifesting in range that cannot be measured or contained.>Why do you think we spend so much time and energy learning about my peers, reciting the words written in ages past by the Gibrans and the Shakespeares? We are trying to connect our human consciousness across space and time, distance and history, knowing that there's a possibility that the future might be impacted by our words. In between the pages and screenshots we are hoping to find that elusive meaning and richness of life. Life is spiritual. Our every walking, waking moment is refined by an energy that we cannot see and scientists are just beginning to discover fully. It has not stopped this spirituality from being taken for granted, manipulated by the music industry, entertainment complexes, sports monopolies and the broadcast media so that sometimes the vortex of feelings and beliefs threatens to overwhelm us. In walks myself with a broken pen, spilling ink with every breath I take, watching 0's and 1's become oohs and aahs of a fickle minority/majority. Our faith promises peace by trusting in Jesus, even in the most adverse circumstance (John 14:27). The takeaway is that this peace is not defined by the situation but by your spiritual existence and connection to something greater than you. Whether you believe spirituality is a detriment to society or a supplement to our morality, ignoring the spiritual in our lives is denying our self the ability to grow, to love, to change, to plan and to find peace. Everyone should have a poem that resonates with them. A poet and a writer that brings a truth within them into the outer realm. What is your favourite book of poetry or quotes or devotions that concludes the day and/or opens the night? My true peace starts within with acceptance, that we all need poetry in our lives.
