Interview A Friend: Meet PixiePoet4Life
She also has her poems in books and I'm sure if you locate her on Swell cast, you will be able to find out more information of how you can listen to her poetry and also considering purchasing one of her books. I would like to toss this interview to Pixie Poet and ask if you could share with us what started your love for poetry and if you are able to recall when was your first poem, what age were you?
So I've kind of walked away from those themes through my life, and now I'm in a place where I am trying to reverse that and change it. I realize that my natural nature is what I need to be cultivating, that my talents are important to put out there and for them to be seen and for me to share who and what I really am with people
So, I mean, most things that people do are kind of based in what they experience and how it affects them, obviously. But with artists, I think it goes a lot deeper. You are deeply connected to the things that happen to you and how you perceive them, based on how your emotions are affected and how it makes you view the world at large because of those things. And that's what you actually deliver in your art
So it just all depends on where I'm at. Now, you were asking about whether or not where my inspiration comes from, but how I develop poetry. I want to kind of talk about the fact that a lot of times people ask, can you do a poem? If you're asked to do a poem about something that's a little more difficult?
They will usually be like, we'd like you to do a piece for this particular scene, but we're not going to say how you have to do it or what the subject is or yada yada, we just want you to sit down and write something fresh for us. But it could be whatever you want. Because they kind of know if they give me criteria, it's going to change the flavor of the artistry
It is a very personal thing and I think with all artists, that is the way that it is. Artistry is very personal and very intimate to the individual who is delivering that work. So to answer all your questions, I know this has been very long winded answer. I can never do less than like five post on Swell, but that is the answer to all of your questions. And I don't know if there's anything else that you would like to know in this interview

And so it's important to me to be able to have these different diverse conversations about a diverse range of topics so that I am able to have or know how to have a response for everyone as according to the word. That's why I use this platform which inspired the question to you in terms of your poetry and that impromptu poetry creation

Anyway, so I did a poem about that, and then we officially became girlfriend and boyfriend at that point. But anyway, I think about that movie. And so that's what came to mind when I heard you guys all contributing to that 22nd thread of words together. I was like, this is like an open mic Love Jones moment right here. Okay? With all that being said, because I don't want to hold up this interview. This is your spotlight moment

And her responses are so full and so rich and eloquent. I encourage you to please check out her content. Check out her content. And if you like what you hear, consider following her. If you know someone else who might want to hear content such as this, suggest her as a spoil caster that someone else could follow. Again, thank you, everyone, for your time. Thank you for responding to your spotlight moment, everyone. I hope you create the day that you desire
So I think you would have found a lot of different voices, seriously different. Whereas with a story, you're kind of going based on the theme that was at the beginning, and you're trying to follow up with something that perfectly fits into where this is going, even though it is unique, and everybody's answer was completely unique, but they were kind of following the thread of what the story was. I don't even know what ended up happening to that thread
