    "Through the sharing of art with other people we feel less alone." What a fantastic quote!

    I feel this poem for myself I adore it because it made me remind how much I do love myself but I rather to love someone else even more than myself.

    Helena is brilliant in anything she does. Her punctuation and delivery is just picture perfect.
    Her and Keira Knightly are my favorite actresses, both phenomenal in every aspect. 💐💐

    “The Mistake
    With the mistake your life goes in reverse.
    Now you can see exactly what you did
    Wrong yesterday and wrong the day before
    And each mistake leads back to something worse
    And every nuance of your hypocrisy
    Towards yourself, and every excuse
    Stands solidly on the perspective lines
    And there is perfect visibility.
    What an enlightenment. The colonnade
    Rolls past on either side. You needn't move.
    The statues of your errors brush your sleeve.
    You watch the tale turn back - and you're dismayed.
    And this dismay at this, this big mistake
    Is made worse by the sight of all those who
    Knew all along where these mistakes would lead -
    Those frozen friends who watched the crisis break.
    Why didn't they say? Oh, but they did indeed -
    Said with a murmur when the time was wrong
    Or by a mild refusal to assent
    Or told you plainly but you would not heed.
    Yes, you can hear them now. It hurts. It's worse
    Than any sneer from any enemy.
    Take this dismay. Lay claim to this mistake.
    Look straight along the lines of this reverse.”
    ― James Fenton, Out of Danger

      It was beautiful though. I thought about it from an indigenous perspective, indigenous poems write about completely different emotions and experiences. And yet it is beautiful and touching poetry, just like these collections. His comment was said in the wrong room, to the wrong people unfortunately. As they are all feeling the same thing. I hope he holds that sentiment true to his heart.

      Not the poem but the actual red book she is reading the poems from. I tried to screenshot and zoom but can’t make up the name.

    Poetry is an essential niche in our lives. Meaning, for those who find it important..
    That is, as long as leftists don't use it to manipulate us..
