About the video
Across many languages, the moon carries emotional meanings of love, loss, and cyclical existence. But what does it mean to be the moon itself, to bear partial responsibility for the tides, to serve as a projection screen for wishes and desires, and yet to be taken for granted?
By turning our attention to tides and cycles, time opens for shaping our lives with greater care. In attuning ourselves to these rhythms, we may learn how to leave behind traces of healing for those who come after us.
Poetry Expo 2026 by Versopolis
Poetry Expo 2026 showcases creators from around the world, exploring the poetic response to the present moment. With the theme “Writing in the Wake of the World – New Verses for Torn Times,” this year’s edition focuses on how language survives disaster, how poetic form adapts to a collapsing real, and how the act of writing can become a gesture of repair, resistance, and radical imagination.
