Achro loves poetry... I never really understood poetry because they seemed to be quite boring (the ones taught at my school). But I think that poetries can be very fun to read.
I don't think I've ever read a single interesting poem in my life, which is sad considering how many people I've seen commit themselves to the art
I am personally not counting lyrics
idk if it'd necessarily be that i love poetry, but i do enjoy it ^^ it's just, normally it isn't on its own
i think i just write in a way that happens to appear like poetry? or maybe it is poetry but i don't really know how it works and don't actively play with it that much beyond just wanting my words to look pretty when i arrange them together :p
although... i do wish i was more familiar with poetry as an art, as a craft, and as a practice. it feels like it might have its own range of cultures im not familiarized with, and playing with words is a little bit fun sometimes ^^
i don't really actively look for poetry though, so i can't really remember anything about it beyond rhyming and rhythm and inflection being useful tools, meanwhile knowing very little about poems themselves

I personally just can't stand reading without pictures. My mind has a hard time trying to imagine these scenarios in my head, with the details being blurry and everything being dark. A pictureless book really has to be so good that'd I'd actually finish reading it.
can't really relate, I've had some of my most shattering, earth-rumbling experiences from pictureless reading (not even exaggerating, I could feel it like I was there)
my brain doesn't often work but when it does, it can think up some vivid stuff
Wish I could relate. It's hard to make a concrete image if a book describes a bustling town or something. Best I could think in my head is a simple background with like 2 people in it before it starts getting really vivid.
i deeply relate to that blurry vague impression of each scene, with such shallow depth in detail with only enough room for a few elements at a time
it really feels like i have to alternate quickly between different clusters of objects/features/environments in order to kind of "interpolate" how the image looks in full, but i have so much trouble trying to Keep and image, and it all just fades so fast...
my imagination in general just feels so weak sometimes :c i wonder if this is what makes it super challenging to draw what i want to see
