Perhaps philosophy is to me like thinking about the mechanics of riding a bicycle rather than actually riding a bicycle. There is artificiality in philosophy, especially transitional and modern philosophy.
Come to think, I did not have this problem with postmodernism, only when I started to engage with pre-postmodern works, which I had started doing in the last decade.
Philosophy stimulates thought and imagination… it stirs up lots of ideas for me, it’s really interesting that you get a negative effect though, such simplistic differences in people make existence a most fascinating event…
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, I’ll be following your poetic works…

It’s not a bad thing, indeed.
Perhaps, it’s because I see philosophy as meta.

Interesting!
I find every time I do philosophy my artistic creativity suffers. And the opposite happens when I do creative stuff my philosophy suffers.
They are like milk and water to me.
