post me an original idea. Tristan and whatsiwho was not original at the time of the writing. We both know that, surely. Find me the very first time any one wrote the idea, but more importantly, the first time anyone thought it or expressed it. It's not orginality, in the sense of being the first to thing of something, but in how we touch others in our expression of something.... all, or many, or some, of us feel about a subject. It goes on and on.

And "The Boxer" is but a newer expression of "Stewball". So what? They both reached people.

Some feelings, some themes, are timeless.

It's the power of the poet to make it new to a new generation. To reach people.

People feel the same things now, go through the same things now, as they did how ever many thousands of years ago.
