These these questions have intrigued me lately: How much does the poet control the language, and how much does the language control the poet?
Suna said said that the balance is probably different for each poet. I can see the logic of that assumption, but is it really? At a fundamental level, doesn’t language define how we perceive the world? And don’t those perceptions define our realities? And isn’t reality just a negotiation between ourselves and the universe? And why am I blathering on about this?
