You have arrived at StarPoet, a comet falling toward morning. The poet's still here, Sappho's child, slightly disheveled.

Doing Sappho
 Sappho and I have natural voices that sing in harmony. Sometimes I feel her voice when writing and I let her flow through me.
The simplest explanation is that random chance has produced a similar set of atoms and synapses with similar poetic tendencies.
Or, just maybe, the destruction of her poems in the bonfires of her enemies left Sappho smoldering over these long centuries.
Perhaps the whispers in my head are her lost poems sifted from the ashes - those she would write if only she were alive and not me.
