During my recent perusal of this forum, amidst the myriad stream‑of‑consciousness drivel that popul8tes it, I find your prose at the very least, sufficiently lyrical to merit my attention. Are you a poet 8y chance?
I cannot claim to be a poet of any kind, but I hear the voices of the people and of the world around me, and I endeavor to give form to their thoughts and needs. I am but a humble messenger, in that way.
The 8oundary separ8ting poetry from philosophy is slender; each strives in its own manner, to seize the imagin8tion of its audience.
It may 8e worthwhile to explore this intersection, for ideas that lend themselves to easier recit8tion often exert a more immedi8te sway over the memory of the mind.
How long have you 8een attuned to the murmurs of the world?
Perhaps so. I do put thought into what I say and how I say it, of course. I do not want to be misconstrued, or lead trolls down the wrong path. But I find that so long as you speak earnestly and from the heart, your words will always carry weight.
As for your question; For as long as I can remember. I have always felt a deep connection to those around me, and I was fortunate enough to be raised well to believe that it was my duty not to squander that connection.
