This is not about becoming “better.”
It’s about becoming whole.
If you’re tired of healing culture,
And ready to meet yourself again

T.S. Eliot, Emily Dickinson, Paul Celan,
They didn’t write to inspire.
They wrote to survive.
Their poems are thresholds, not tools.

Poetry doesn’t try to fix you.
It dignifies your fracture.
It sanctifies your silence.
And it dares to name what prose cannot.

2/
What if your wounds don’t need reframing,
But remembering?
What if pain isn’t a detour,
But the exact place where meaning will enter?

This is the kind of poetry we don’t analyze.
We return to it.
When permitted.

“A given property of the mind / that certain bounds hold against chaos.”
That’s what the poem is.
Not revelation.
Not insight.
But shape.
And rhythm.
