“What Can Poetry Do?”

ALL ARE WELCOME! You BELONG at Beacon – Spiritually open and intentionally inclusive since 1958.

This service will feature recent original poems written and read by Beacon’s members and guests. Together we will explore the question, “What Can Poetry Do?” a question posed by Eve Shockley in her recent poem, “Job Prescription,” which begins, “Will poetry change the world? No one asks/ this about football.” Our talented local poets will then read their own poems that illustrate many ways they have responded to this question. Come on Sunday morning and hear some fresh new poems that may expand your sense of what poetry can do.
