The 2023 Griffin Poetry Prize Anthology: A Selection of the Shortlist (The Griffin Poetry Prize Anthology

A Selection of the Shortlist

The universe makes a sound—is a sound.
In the core of this sound there's a silence,
a silence that creates a sound, which is not its opposite,
but its inseparable soul. And this silence can also be heard.
—Etal Adnan
