History written is a chronicle. History viewed through the prism of poetry captures the essence of lives lived and events experienced, reflecting the sensibilities and foibles of the times, whether picturesque or epic or mundane, whether vain or glorious or merely foolish, satisfying or shocking, imaginative or pedestrian. Poetry wrings the truth from metaphor, touching both the mind and heart. Poetry is the voice of our conscience.
