POETRY X MOOIE WOORDEN - ONLY POEMS CAN SAVE US NOW
It’s 2023. All is lost. The world has gone insane. But hey, we still have poetry to save our (privilege-neglected, climate-change-paralyzed, pandemic-traumatized, brokenhearted, lost, politically lonely) asses. So, let’s go. If for one, poetry is the meme of the soul: poetry has the ability to be heart wrenching, a gut-punch, hilarious and (yes!) it always hits that exact spot that prose or a comic-sans-powerpoint made by our mom cannot compete with. Together with festival poet Rachel Long and others we look for solutions in a time of infinitely multiplying problems. Can poems save the world? And if so, how? Literary extravaganza programme Mooie Woorden gives you an hour of poetical entertainment with high meme-potential. For one hour only, you, the visitor, and the superstars and our saviours (the poets) will come together to solve all shitshows together.
