Falcon2001 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Imagine the depth, the height and width Now flip the world endwise and add color Add a fourth and a fifth to the pattern And fill in the gaps with little horrors Now sit in the center and unravel yourself Glance around with a thousand eyes That all glimmer uselessly in the night Pull on your tangled webs and feel life Fill yourself with the beat and the Rhythm -END- Cioden Darkeye Quill-Bearer - The Pen is Mightier than the Sword Owner of the Reply Raven - Enemy to all those who never post responses "Oh my God, I'm LEAKING POETRY!"
Peredhil Posted May 30, 2003 Report Posted May 30, 2003 I find two views of life, and it seems to depend if the individual lives life as a series of sequential states (like flipping through a deck of cards) or lives life as a flow through time (like a leaf navigating a river). The state thinkers tend to be individual identies, defined by themselves, and then put in relation to the world. They have more difficulties in relationships and the emotions thereof, than in being alone. the process thinkers tend to be an intersection of relationships, and their identity is defined by how others perceive them. They have difficulty being alone, for without another to define them - they don't exist. Neat poem.
