August 10, 2018, 04:09:06 pm toff says: Honestly speaking my family dont get me and I dont mean that in some juvenile way. They dont understand why I spend hours with books. They dont understand the endeavour. If they ever read my poesy they wont get it. I am a mystery to them and in their eyes honestly a little strange.
August 10, 2018, 04:05:42 pm Sasha says: Not entirely.  Annabelle Lee is his magnum opus.  It is enough for me.  In that sense, yes.  But, I waded through many works and got to a place where I craved the poetry that came from the soul of all mankind.

I have a terrible knack for driving conversations that direction, without realizing it.

You could say I now fancy everything a living poem, complete with words.  That is from my heart and as sincere as I can express it.
August 10, 2018, 04:02:55 pm toff says: So Poe is a poeT you often return to?
August 10, 2018, 04:00:14 pm Sasha says: A poets words are always helpful, no matter the intent.  That is sincere.
August 10, 2018, 03:59:32 pm Sasha says: I personally, and cannot speak for the collective, would be greatful to have the real you speak here.
August 10, 2018, 03:59:15 pm toff says: How do you mean?
August 10, 2018, 03:58:59 pm Sasha says: No sarcasm.  Relief!
August 10, 2018, 03:55:16 pm toff says: Many. Sensing sarcasm tho. Not that great with that. Would you like me to leave?
August 10, 2018, 03:53:33 pm Sasha says: To gain*
August 10, 2018, 03:53:10 pm Sasha says: Insight*
August 10, 2018, 03:52:59 pm Sasha says: Well played!  How many sites have you rocked the boat on the gain insite into human ignorance and enlightenment?
August 10, 2018, 03:51:23 pm toff says: I am in the process of reading Classics and Lit at Uni. I will pen a collection poesy. I am an all or nothing man. Yes.
August 10, 2018, 03:50:44 pm Sasha says: In the process*

And, I can deeply appreciate your respect for brevity.
August 10, 2018, 03:49:55 pm Sasha says: Aha!  So you are the the process of university study and you are embarking on a life’s work that will be penned or notated musically by yourself?

You are an all or nothing man and you are embarking on your magnum opus?
August 10, 2018, 03:41:58 pm toff says: Okay. My project is not so much one of shining morality as it is one of image, language and the revelation which arises out of it. But to reduce it to something as merely prosaic as say Berkeley's dialogue is a little strange to me. something closer may be the Bhagavad Gita. It is after all a philosophic-theologic treatise in verse told through dialogue. Even that would not suffice tho. If we reduce poesy to something like an assembly manual it loses its force. This is what makes a short poem superior to even a philosophic-theologic genius like Augustine or Aquinas. First comes the force. Any revelation that comes after that is merely secondary. I would even say I am so obsessed with the initial attraction that it consumes me. Philosophic or theologic texts from the PreSocs through to Hegel are only something to be dealt with out of necessity not because they genuinely matter to one. Only short poesy really achieves that and only when it has genuine effect and this initial effect is my life project.
August 10, 2018, 03:29:11 pm Sasha says: Disguises*
August 10, 2018, 03:28:33 pm Sasha says: In the walking dead, Michone was driving with Merl.

She looked over at him and said; “I’ve known evil men.  Their conscience was as light as a feather”.

Toff, yours is not.  An evil man never proclaims Himself evil, but disguised himself as an angel of light.
August 10, 2018, 03:23:13 pm toff says: That particular pursuit does not interest me. I have drive but it originates in the jungle-gym of my darkly-coloured heart.
August 10, 2018, 03:19:58 pm Sasha says: Theos ultimately defines the force behind everything.

Without drive, there is no philosophical pursuit.  I amnt sincere as well.
August 10, 2018, 03:16:43 pm toff says: Philosophy is not always a theologic pursuit. Theology is a philosophic pursuit. I amnt sincere.
August 10, 2018, 03:11:42 pm Sasha says: Un-defiled *
August 10, 2018, 03:11:08 pm Sasha says: What would you change about the religious mind set “if” you could?

Morality and Riligism are synonymous.

There is a pure religion that is undefined and I doubt you would disagree with what it is.
August 10, 2018, 03:09:26 pm Sasha says: You have*
August 10, 2018, 03:09:10 pm Sasha says: Younhave stumbled into a room of non religious people that bleed truth and exalt its search.
August 10, 2018, 03:08:22 pm Sasha says: Theology is Philosophy.  Philosophy is the foundation of poesy.  I am curious as to why you haven’t made that connection yet.  The religious only etch with pre made poesy.

The sincere bleed truth, rather than repress it.
