Over a century ago, poetry was all the rage. More recently, it has surged in popularity again. What role does it have in our national consciousness? Poets Maxine Beneba Clarke, David Stavanger and Peter Kirkpatrick share their thoughts (and maybe a poem or two!) Please note: This panel is dedicated to showcasing contemporary Australian poetry. Each year Words on the Waves commits to this focus to honour the memory of late local poet Robert Adamson.
