Quote by Thomas Lynch
So I suppose poetry, language, the shaping of it, was and remains for me an effort to make sense out of essentially senseless situations.
Summary
This quote suggests that the act of writing poetry, as well as the use of language, serves as a means to bring understanding and coherence to circumstances that are inherently chaotic and nonsensical. The speaker perceives poetry as an ongoing attempt to create meaning where there seems to be none, providing a way to make sense of the inexplicable.
