do you ever really feel positive about having a unique voice? God, I'm 
never going to find mine...

Yeats is the man...
"The purpose of rythm, it has always seemed to me, is to prolong the 
moment of contemplation, the moment when we are both asleepand awake, 
which is the one moment of creation, by hushing us withan alluring 
monotony, while it holds us by waking variety, to keep us in that state of 
perhaps real trance, in which the mind liberated from the pressure of the 
will is unfolded in symbols. If certain sensitive persons listen 
persistently to the ticking of a watch, or gaze persistently on the 
monotonous flashing of a light, they fall into hypnotic trance: and rythm 
is but the ticking of a watch made softer, that one must needs listen, and 
various, that one may not be swept beyond memory or grow weary of 
listening: while the patterns of the artist are but the monotonous flash 
wove to take the eyes in a subtle enchantment." _to be continued
