Abstract: Traumatic events can provoke introspection in a person's life and possibly cause an existential crisis, or, depression. These conscious thoughts offer a new perception of life as the individual understands that they define their own meaning and purpose to life. This leads to a series of choices. Those choices are often filled with the mundane, "everydayness" of life. Attempting to accept normalcy and navigate the mundane can lead to frustration, even recycling the individual back to a constant search for purpose and meaning. Poetry, as an art form, provides modules that can present mundane moments and use them to create a larger piece that recycles and searches for purpose and meaning, much like an individual.
