To be fully free, we must make informed choices at the level of framing as we sift imagery into experience. The deeply figurative nature of poetry allows us to compare alternative framings in an abundance that is unavailable in declarative speech, where lines of reference are exclusive. . In addition, in imitating our own mind's movements, poetry lets us start to name them, thereby expanding the reach of comparison and choice within. This book looks at the relation among freedom, poetry, and informed choice. It also explores how poetry can endure through the depth and abundance of its framing demonstrations. Poetry can • Demonstrate framing processes that, by reordering, reveal long-hidden features and extend our visible domain. • Build the comparative skills that increase choice across domains • Reflect and trace our current framing processes • Fortify us against manipulative influence
