“Poetry is about freedom and it's survival. Poetry for me was lifesaving.” ~ Mohammad Awad

MAD Poetry Producer, and Poetry Month Senior Producer David Stavanger draws out selected poems from the MAD Poetry archives in this episode, plus a range of selected poems previously commissioned as part of Poetry Month #30in30.

If a poem was a room you could walk into, whose voices might you hear? Red Room Poetry grew from a community radio show focused on the voices of Australian poets. Now in our 20th year, explore Red Room Poetry’s audio archives including commissioned poems from the first two years of the national Poetry Month and beyond.
