[ i demand poetry ]

"when i speak of poetry i am not thinking of it as a genre. poetry is an awareness of the world, a particular way of relating to reality. so poetry becomes a philosophy to guide a man throughout his life…. [with poetry, one] is capable of going beyond the limitations of coherent logic, and conveying the deep complexity and truth of the impalpable connections and hidden phenomena of life."

Tarkovsky, A. (1932-1986)
