Hi!
I'm currently looking for a related text for the AOS Discovery. I'm thinking of a poem based on philosphical (self) discovery. Any suggestions of a good quality poem would be much appreciated!
Thanks so much!

Hey Lauren,
Not sure if this would be what you're after however off the top of my head I immediately thought of a "chapter" of Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet: On Self-Knowledge. Besides being absolutely beautiful to read poetically, Gibran infuses a lot of Christian philosophy and a bit of oriental/Lebanese influences so there's room to go in some cool directions in your analysis.
I'd be keen to hear other people's suggestions here! I think poetry is highly underrated as a related text choice! 😃
