Poetry is Paradoxical

Morning all!
Another day and another quote for you to enjoy-
“A poem is a place where the conditions of beyondness and withinness are made palpable, where to imagine is to feel what it is to be. It allows us to have the life we are denied because we are too busy living. Even more paradoxically, poetry permits us to live in ourselves as if we were just out of reach of ourselves.”
Beautifully said, and very true- wouldn’t you agree?
