Understanding Poetry

Truth be told, I’ve never understood poetry. I know I’m just ignorant to the art form but I find it cryptic and hard to understand. Though I’m sure there’s a profound beauty to it.

Earlier today, I came across an ad for Rupi Kaur’s live show this Friday, I registered immediately. I haven’t read much of her work (though I helped develop her original website), but she’s one of the few modern poets I know of.

Part of me is just curious, maybe then I’ll experience the magic of poetry.
