‘may god keep man from single vision.’-blake


How bout time and date..
How bout some detail…
some experience up to that point in time,
how incredibely distant we all are from eachother; its a distant shore coming through the mist…

it comes down to the history of words;
for us as individuals
and for the history of individuals grouped together to form a whole.
think about the abstractions…
the deviations from reality,
the 6.5 million varients to the word ‘love’
the word ‘hate’…
think of context…
……………..

(i wrote this a couple posts down the board; its all a matter of context. can anyone catch my drifting with this?)

all poets have wings
from lofty clifftops we sings

we sing as we stare
downward
across
endless contradicting abyss
we toss
a word
on a whim
extend our minds
our god given limb
to anyone
and everyone
that could
conject a word
unknown
to man’s mass
already….

…………………

it can be such a challenge to be a poet,
constantly out of context,
constantly swimming,
through seas of negativity
and unconstructive critisicm…

(against the dead fish:)

‘we came, we saw, and we conquered’

this is bullshit, real deep bullshit…

considering humanity still fights with fists,
not words…

we dont fight with words because everytime you try, one man is there, taking you out of context, as he takes his gun, out his pocket,
and does away with you
in no time,
your done.
no more words
no more misunderstanding,
no more challenge,
just the simple fithly weak way out…
simpley
sad.


may men move on.
And sing their sad song…
Why not be proud of our suffering?


Blathering,
Daniel.
