Abstract

The article states that by reigniting the dormant aspects of language and life, poetry restores a sense of reality to existence. It mentions a poem by Gwendolyn Brooks called "The Womanhood." It highlights that the poem explores the desire for a storyteller or witness who can capture the truth of our times, even if that truth may not be pleasant.
