“In a political culture of managed
spectacles and passive spectators, poetry appears as a rift, a peculiar lapse,
in the prevailing mode. The reading of a poem, a poetry reading, is not a
spectacle,…..”
---Adrienne Rich.
Yet poetry communicates emotions evolved from the nervous system of the
poet to the very inner soul of the readers, without which a poem remains unfinished.
The motive of a poem should not be to manipulate its readers; it will not
succeed. And to reach the goal of enveloping readers with the essence of the
poem, it must be honest with itself. Only a clear and true vision can achieve
this. Every poet should possess this virtue without which a poem cannot
survive.
Poetry is also a means to transcend our personal visionary limitations to
reach the cultural extensions of our traditions and inheritance in our ever
changing world. Poetry also constantly propels us towards
the future. And a literary magazine or specially a poetical journal has much to
offer to ensure communication between the poet and the readers evolving through
traditions and cultural inheritance.
To keep pace with the changing times, a literary magazine needs to evolve
in web format not only for the internet savvy new generations but also for
senior citizens. This is why we have started this online monthly journal “OUR
POETRY ARCHIVE”, which is becoming popular day by day. We have diversified our
contributor list to different continents, bringing in literary cultures and
traditions of different countries. So “Our Poetry Archive” is literary becoming
a worldwide poetical festival every month. And only a festival can bridge the
gap between every single individual ‘I’ into an ocean of human ‘WE’. Yes, in “Our
Poetry Archive” we do strongly believe in this. Our entire endeavor revolves
around this belief.
We extend our sincere invitation to all our readers and writers alike to
participate in this journey. Like all the previous editions, we have archived thirty
six poems written by poets of various continents with different cultural
backgrounds and literary heritage. We are glad to inform you that the
viewership of our journal is rapidly growing every day. You can have a look
through the Google Stats of the viewership of Our Poetry Archive.
Thank You All!
