Poetry is a powerful medium to express the complexities of being human. It shares the experiences, perceptions, and stories of its author and their internal/external worlds. Poetry often speaks to the soul of its reader and exposes truths normally unnoticed. The activity of writing poetry is one of self-exploration and should belong to anyone and everyone — it is not something only a few can possess.
The SGI Portland Poets is very proud to present the poetry compilation Songs of Ourselves: A Compilation of Poetry by the Members and Friends of the Oregon SGI-USA Buddhist Community.
At this time the booklet is available in electronic format, located here on this website. For further questions about the project, please contact sgipoetry@yahoo.com.
