"Hey Joe, I've been thinking"
"Jane, you know that thinking can be dangerous
For it's usually conceptual, thus from the lower mind"
"I know Joe, but sometimes one has to reveal what MAYBE true
I'm only putting voice to thoughts, just between 'me' and 'you'"...
"Well, Jane, there's the first misunderstanding
There is no 'you' and 'me' ~ only I & I"
"Okay, I'm speaking to myself again, what's new?"
"Don't tell me it's about Hello Poetry again
If it's disturbing your peace, the cost is too high"
You're right as usual, Joe
Maybe taking a break is the way to go...
But I must get this off my chest, so to speak
The reason 'loving poems' and comments are restricted could be
That one is rewarded with embers for reading & commenting
And embers can be converted to stars*
So, to limit the reading and commenting overrides that boon"
"Yep, that makes sense, Jane, but why the 500 followers rule
When many have followed 1.5k plus over a decade or so---
Jane, remaining the silent observer, is the way to go"...
"There's much more to this than meets the eye, Joe"
"Jane, remember the golden key---
Uttered by Socrates. ~ 'I know that I know nothing'
Know ThySelf ~ The Truth will set you Free"...

Feedback (your thoughts on the matter) will be appreciated
As I'd like to understand why all these new rules have been implemented
Thanks for reading
Best wishes always... Kim
