RE: Could Philosophy Just Be Another Form Of Poetry?

I think it can go a bit beyond that. I've been told by people before I am one of those people that seems to be good at using my left and right brain, sometimes at the same time. I actually have quite a few different topics I can discuss as well that my mind seems to kick into another gear.

My poetry can have some emotion, but that actually is not my focus. In fact I'd almost say it is more like temporarily linking my subconscious mind with my conscious one as I like to intentionally stream my poetry into existence. I tend to write it very fast and as a stream of consciousness as doing it that way makes me come up with unexpected things.

I have written poetry other ways where I spend a lot more time crafting a piece. Yet it turns out those are not the pieces I personally enjoy the most, and I can very clearly see me in such pieces.

My stream of consciousness ones I can look at them and think "Who in the hell wrote that?", "Where did that come from?", etc.

Which is also why I chose the handle @chaospoet for when I do that. Though what friends and I called Chaos Poetry when I was in my early adulthood was even a bit more freeform than that.

I do get what you are saying, and there likely is something to it. I also get that our physical brain actually has two hemispheres. So left, right is a very physical and tangible thing as well. Yet, I suspect/speculate that our use of left and right can go beyond what we normally think.

Bascially here are the modes I can think of that feel different that I can recall at the moment to me in my mind:

Logic, Reasoning, Science, Philosophy - and my normal mode of operation all feel similar in how my brain works
Poetry when it is inspired and freeform feels very different mentally. If I consciously craft it then it doesn't feel this way.
Talking about ghosts, spiritual, and unexplainable phenomena my mind can start to feel different.
Become the hack, become the guitar. The phase where you zone out and seem to BECOME what you are doing feels very different. It can feel similar a bit to the freeform poetry. When I say hack here I am referring to a hacky sack. It's been a long time since I played one. Yet, "become the hack" used to be a phrase back then where you zoned out and just kept playing without even really realizing what you were doing as you spaced out a bit. I've done this noodling on guitars before too.
