Ratings and comments help YouTubers feel like they are not wasting their lives. *nudge*
Everybody has an opinion and will willingly share it with you.
Maybe they shouldn't.
Yes, that is hypocritical.
The poem is Mute Opinion by Thomas Hardy:
I
I traversed a dominion
Whose spokesmen spake out strong
Their purpose and opinion
Through pulpit, press, and song.
I scarce had means to note there
A large-eyed few, and dumb,
Who thought not as those thought there
That stirred the heat and hum.
II
When, grown a Shade, beholding
That land in lifetime trode,
To learn if its unfolding
Fulfilled its clamoured code,
I saw, in web unbroken,
Its history outwrought
Not as the loud had spoken,
But as the mute had thought.

dear poet,
well done! your British accent is very lovely - those of us who have had a time in life -
perhaps because of neurodegenerative illness - come to the point when we can no longer speak, wish that when we did we had said something more kind & more eloquent...
sincerely,
louise
