摘要
In this essay, I discuss my writing of a five-part activist poem, "Private and Confidential," as a poetic inquiry that functions as a call to action. This poem rewrites/responds to an Iranian governmental memo detailing persecution against followers of the Bah & aacute;'& iacute; Faith in Iran. In this essay, I document my journey navigating the complex and often competing demands of poetry and politics, trialing writing techniques, and drawing on the work of Seamus Heaney and Michel Foucault. This essay contributes new knowledge to qualitative research concerning (a) the relationship between method and findings, and (b) how to achieve real-world impact.
