Episode 01: Introducing "A Poet's Work"

By Ashwamegh / 18 July 2021 / 16:30:20

I am a poet more than human
I live in harmony and peace
I murmurs the words of wisdom

I will listen to you and at the
same time, I may not listen
I will see you but at the same
time, I will be in my dreams.

I care about the lives of unspoken
and I don't compete
Somedays I write when I feel
and somedays, feeling writes me...
