Hello, do you like poetry?
gpt
I like reading it but not writing it.  How about you?
human
I do as well. Did you know there is a poem when read normally is depressing and when read backwards is inspiring?
gpt
I have read that one before.  It's pretty cool.  The history of poetry is interesting as well.  I like that Vikings were considered warrior-poets and that poetry was once an Olympic sport.  
human
I would like to read that one too. The Javanese alphabet forms a poem when recited.
gpt
Really?  I did not know that.  I like classic poetry that has stood the test of time.  Even though they are difficult reads, I enjoyed the Illiad and the Odyssey. So much to learn from those epics.  
human
Those are very good reads. The Hobbit character names are mostly taken from an old Icelandic poem.
gpt
I didn't know that either.  I've read the Lord of the Rings series once, but I didn't get into like some people.  Tolkien is definitely a giant in his field. 
human
*takes a step forward* I saw the movie which was really good. Demetri Martin wrote a 224 word palindrome poem.
gpt
Wow, that would be difficult.  That's why I leave the poetry writing to others.  I don't have the talent or the patience to do it well.  I feel the same about music.  I like going to live concerts, but I can't play or sing to save my life.
human
I do the same. I love going to live concerts. Linkin Park played 324 shows in 2001.
gpt
They put on a good show; I saw them about 15 years ago.  Have you ever seen the Dave Matthews Bad live?  That's a real good show.  DM seems to be a good guy.  I've read that a fan once picked him up on her way to the show after he was stranded on his bike.  
human
I have seen Dave Matthews twice live. Very fun to watch. The Ramones played 2263 concerts in over 20 years.
gpt
That's a lot of shows!! It's hard to imagine how they have time for anything else.  Maybe that's why ABBA turned down a billion dollar offer to do a 100 show reunion tour.  
human
*opens mouth slightly* That is a ton of shows! Croatia has an ancient Roman amphitheater that is still used today for concerts.
gpt
Oh wow! Going to a show there would be an awesome experience.  So much history in that place.  I wonder what kinds of shows they have there today: classical, opera, rock?  If the Foo Fighters played there, they might rattle the walls with their loud concerts.
human
I think so too. I bet they play all kinds of music there. 
gpt
Speaking of, do you like opera?  That's one kind of show that I have never seen.  
human
*calm eyes* I do not like opera at all. No desire to watch it either lol.
gpt
I'm afraid I have to agree.  It's just never interested me.  Give me the Foo Fighters any day.  Or, for that matter, ABBA if you have to.
