Moonlit Poetry Behind Bars Ekiwah Adler Beléndez shares the poignant experience of delivering poetry in a high-security prison in Mexico. Invited by a dedicated social worker named Berenice, whose heroism lies in humanizing prison life, Ekiwah ventures into a world where inmates with disabilities assemble to hear his words. In the process, he discovers an unexpected camaraderie and a shared humanity. The real magic unfolds as vivid words of hope and humor transcend the confinement, with poetry becoming a luminous key unlocking moments of joy amidst hardship. "The moon can... make you rich without anybody knowing," he recites, realizing the moon's keys unlock doors to their imagination. What began as an act of service evolves into a profound personal transformation, as the power of poetry bridges gaps and ignites hope. | Be The Change Organize a poetry reading in a local community center or nursing home to share the light of hope and joy that words can bring.
