From the 2009 edition of bordertown.
Poetry is a pursuit of great emotional involvement, and luckily, has many benefits...as illustrated by both poems I submitted. It can help you express what prose cannot, [Metamorphosis] and even lighten your mood. [Escape from the 'Things'] Take, for instance, a challenge for the depressed: Think up the most serious topic you can and use poetic forms and such to cast a more humorous light on it. Or, get melodramatic about something absurd. It works just about every time...and you may wind up rolling with laughter...it works for me all the time, and can really turn your mood around for the better. After all, you feel what you read!
