I’m doing a poem reading for a competition and I need another piece or two. The poems needs to relate to the 1st part of Rime of the ancient mariner. I’d like something modern or pre Renaissance.

I think the yearning for a deeper connection is mirrored between the sexes. There are men that only value physical looks and sex, just as there are woman that only value social standing and power. It's hard for all of us, it's just part of the human condition. It's terrifying being vulnerable in front of another person, regardless of gender.

I get the introversion thing though, most girls are clingy as fuck and can't understand that need to be alone. I'm sure a lot of men are similar.

I dunno, I'm from Australia's hipster capital too, and it's just as hard to meet genuine, thoughtful and intelligent girls.
