Cinematic means Poetic

The Russian filmmaker Andrei Tarkovsky once said, "There is only one way of thinking in cinema: poetically."

The Finnish-Swedish writer and poet, Tua Forsström, who takes inspiration from Tarkovsky expresses this idea the other way round. She thinks of poetry cinematically.

The Snow Whirls over the Courtyard's Roses 

The snow whirls over the courtyard roses.
Didn't bring my boots and scarf, leafing
through books, don't know what to do with all this light!
