This is fantastic: thought provoking with a very lyrical expression. I myself have struggled with the urge to express deep-seeded, meaningful ideas, instead of just fiddling about with words to churn out pretty poems, and I know that it’s difficult not to sound arid or academic when you’re convinced of the preeminence of ideas over form. This is meaningful poetry, with powerful ideas, but very lyrical, compelling and formally very beautiful. Not that you need my points, but will rate it with a 10. Thanks.
