“People love to make big pronouncements about poetry saving us. And I want to believe that, but for now, what I can say is … poetry can make us feel. And right now, maybe that’s enough. It doesn’t have to bring us hope or joy, it just has to remind us that we feel. That we are alive, and here, and feeling the world.” — Ada Limon
