Art We all speak in poetry. Whether we know it or not. Poetry is one of the first art forms, uses language to invoke imagery. It is an intelligent way of evoking powerful feelings, whilst acknowledging the beauty and interconnectedness of both the distress and hope we feel for this moment of human life. In this day and age where social media rules and disconnection feels like it is encouraged, the Dust Temple has for the last 5 years; been a base for a community of diverse and eclectic people. An ever-changing smorgasbord of people are able to be inspired, gain confidence and evolve through sharing their passion for articulating and celebrating their own personal renaissance and their observation of the sub-cultures we live in. Each poet no matter how ostracised or celebrated within the mainstream; takes the platform to be acknowledged by and to muse the audience. Embedding within our culture a powerful cultural reawakening to what is important if humanity is to survive these extraordinary times.
