Poetry is Bread

On our earth, before writing was invented, before the printing press was invented, poetry flourished. That is why we know that poetry is like bread; it should be shared by all, by scholars and by peasants, by all our vast, incredible, extraordinary family of humanity.” That was Pablo Neruda, I’m Bob Holman, and this is the “Poetry Is Bread” podcast, where poetry challenges us, makes us think, and, with imagination and courage, changes the world.
