If only people talk in the river
I would swim the entire length of your flow,
dive deep into your hidden depths,
carefully analyze the phytoplanktons
and the zooplanktons,
that made you so unique,
that you are able to attrack many fishes.
I will express my admiration
right there and then
so the waves would carry them to you.
But I ain't got gills, just lungs.
and I communicate in person
not amongst the waves.

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.

Center Stage with Paul Stewart
*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.
