About This Quote

poetrymelts my bones.enters my blood.and changesits composition. is a quote taken from an essay written by the American poet Adrienne Rich. The poem was entitled “Passionate Thoughts on Rock” and it was written during an important time in her life. She was battling breast cancer and had to undergo treatment for the illness.

During the illness, she would feel depressed and lose interest in her everyday activities. However, she was able to overcome this depression and become more productive during her hard times. Her belief was that if she believed that poetry could be an effective healing tool then she should use it to help herself heal.

This led her to write the essay, “Passionate Thoughts on Rock,” which is one of her most well-known works of literature.
