Poet

This post was written on 26 January 2023.

Poets are channels, in my opinion. They alchemise personal, national and collective occurrences, suffering and joy - emotions - into something that we can identify with. What they put into words, we can use in our own experiences. They help to be human. They help us to feel.

Radnóti Miklós is my favourite Hungarian poet. He was taken into forced labour, and killed. I remember him today.
