When you're going through something whether it's a wonderful thing like having a child or a sad thing like losing somebody you often feel like 'Oh my God I'm so overwhelmed I'm dealing with this huge thing on my own.' In fact poetry's a nice reminder that no everybody goes through it. These are universal experiences.
If we had any nerve at all if we had any real balls as a society or whatever you need whatever quality you need real character we would make an effort to really address the wrongs in this society righteously.
