What a great idea. What I like about poetry is it makes the idea of people in general more plausibly likable by reminding us that a strangers inner life is possible. If we were only as deep as our tweets and the other things we do for reflected approval there would be really nothing to save. It seems urgent to find a way to see people as more than the symbols we have come to represent.

Funny how media means we are all relating to one another as symbols, and then we're surprised when we treat each other like them.
