"Poetry is language at its most distilled and most powerful.” Rita Dove. If communication and literature are the great conversation than poetry is that conversation refined. Over the centuries humanity has fluctuated in the energy it puts into engaging in the great conversation, this is not true of poetry. Humanity has used poetry to express the deepest elements of the human experience and converse with the divine. Join us as we talk with poets Steve Barfuss and Mary Nielson as they talk about the beauty and magic of poetry!
