hi, i really liked the simple yet intricately meaningful poem compared to the life of d mythological bird PHOENIX...Yet ,it seems to me that the comparison could be more empathatic...



That's just what translation is, I think. That's all speaking is. Listening to the other and trying to see past your own biases to glimpse what they're trying to say. Showing yourself to the world, and hoping someone else understands.
