Poetry is often treated as something to study or interpret. But at its core, it’s a way of making contact with experience that doesn’t easily fit into ordinary language.In this episode of The Fertile Dark, Dan Warner and Charmaine Fuller explore poetry as a practice of attention, expression, and connection. They discuss how poetry engages emotion, memory, and the body—offering a way to process experiences that can feel difficult to name or resolve directly.Drawing from personal experience and voices like Rumi and Audre Lorde, the conversation looks at poetry as both a personal and cultural tool. Dan and Charmaine explore its role in emotional regulation, its ability to create shared understanding across different lived experiences, and the ways it can help transform grief, love, and longing into something that can be held and communicated.This episode also offers simple, accessible ways to engage poetry in everyday life—whether through writing, reading, or noticing small moments of meaning in the world around you.Poetry isn’t reserved for artists. It’s a way of staying in relationship with what we feel, what we notice, and what we’re still learning how to say.Connect with us:Instagram: @thefertiledarkpodcast Facebook: The Fertile Dark Podcast YouTube: @thefertiledarkEmail: fertildark@gmail.comSubscribe, rate, and review The Fertile Dark on your favorite podcast platform.
