The Power of Poetry
Found this on Bluesky:
The Power of Poetry
with things falling apart
and anarchy let loose,
it was only poetry, he found,
that had any use
so he reached for his copy
of The Complete Works of Yeats
and bludgeoned the President
of the United States
Brian Bilston
He wrote: here's a short poem about the power of poetry to change the world.
