Poetry is great at questioning, destabilizing, and changing the way we see things by embracing different voices and ideas. That's what the poem is for. So it is a very powerful medium for voices to speak and for others to hear them. Both reading and writing poetry work with our senses and emotions and connect with our spirit. making the art form for art experiential and highly effective. Both writing and reading poetry are highly therapeutic for the mind by expressing emotions and words. Poetry structure favors brevity, but the best poetry also captures concise detail, which is very powerful in conveying a message to the reader. THE LITTLE PRINCE Novella by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
