I use poetry a lot of times just to help. Running for me was something that really transformed my life. Art can be prayer, and nobody had ever considered my poetry prayer- and I think that was the other thing that attracted me to Baha 'i- is that, you know, when I was growing up, you know I couldn't tell anybody I was writing poetry, I'd get beat up or it'd be called.
Ever wondered how faith and writing can change your life? In this episode of 'A is for Alcoholic', host Jon chats with sober writer Peter Murphey.
