Section Ⅳ　Assessing Your Progress & Video Time

课时作业(六)

Ⅰ　阅读

One part of the oath (誓言) taken by physicians requires us to “remember that there is art to medicine, and that warmth, sympathy and understanding may outweigh the surgeon's knife or the chemist's drug.” When I, along with my medical school class, recited that oath at my white coat ceremony a year ago, I admitted that I was more focused on the biomedical aspects than the “art”．

 Actually, medical professionals can get too easily caught up in treating to remember there is still space for healing. As doctors learn to communicate with patients beyond the restricted language of physical indicators, drug protocols and surgical interventions that may go against healing, they are reaching for new tools—poetry.

 One clinical trial studied the effect of music or poetry on the pain, depression, and hope scores of 65 adult patients under cancer treatment. They found that both types of art therapy (疗法) produced similar improvements in pain and depression scores. Only poetry, however, increased hope scores. Researchers assumed that poetry can break the so­called law of silence, according to which talking about one's perception of illness is taboo. After listening to poetry, one participant said, “I feel calmer when I hear those words. They show me that I'm not alone.”

 Insights like these are already making their way into the clinic. Sarah Friebert runs a care center where children are visited by a writer who helps them create poems and stories for publication. Eric Elshtain uses poetry on the wards to teach children the power of self­expression. He's found that many of his patients write haikus about things like sports or their favorite stuffed animal, rather than their experience in a hospital bed. Poetry, as he said, is a way to both accept the hospital encounter and escape from it.

While a poem a day won't cure, it might help relieve. I've decided that I'll learn how to meet my patients beyond the chart documents; that I'll encourage them to write their own stories; that I will heal as well as treat. In other words, I'll honor each and every word in the oath I took last year.

Look up some poems by famous writers to see what you like and what you don't like about each of them. Langston Hughes, Maya Angelou, and Sylvia Plath are famous poets that have varying styles. You can also see some examples of different styles and tones in poetry by comparing and contrasting authors.

 Get in tune with your emotions.

__3__. You can easily add emotions into your poetry if you understand what you are feeling throughout the day. Try to note whenever you are feeling a strong emotion and what made you feel it. Understanding your own emotions can be difficult. Try to explore how you feel on a daily basis, and what situations disturb your mood often. __4__. So they are a great tool to be used in poetry.
