Now the voice topic is interesting to me for two main reasons:

[1] On discussing certain topics, a friend of mine said that my English reminded him of Plato's Greek.
[2] I also discovered that my voice fitted naturally into or is harmonious with 19th century English.

Now I don't know any Ancient Greek, and I did not study 19th century English, but it just turned out that way. I too find the modern English idiom a little uninspiring, with one of the reason being the massive simplification of sentence structure post the invention of radio and television. I say it all the time: not everybody speaks the same English.

Also, for sure, without a persistent and consistent mythos, modern poetry can fracture into a million fragments of personal concerns like so many diary entries.

But all the above is part of what makes poetry writing a fun hobby for me.

Addendum: An a recent English friend of mine described my speech as "ancient". Which was fun!
