where everything was beautiful
where everything was beautiful is a weekly celebration of poetry, embracing a world where words can be eaten, where everyday activities could be seen as a form of prayer; a world where we may exist forever as wonderstruck children. featuring poetry written live on air, this show attempts to contemplate what it means to be human; to propose that even the ugly—sadness, tragedy, death—could, in the right lighting, be seen as beautiful.
