Ummm.... Errrm... Okay. I for one can't figure out what on earth you're actually talking about, but maybe that's just my lack of ability to comprehend obtuse or obfuscated texts.

But whatever. Okay, go right ahead. Do it.

I really cannot decide whether this is really bad poetry or incredibly murky philosophy.....

Maybe in a dark, smoky coffeehouse with a single spotlight over the performer and bongo drum riffs at every pause....I could dig it!

ditto... maybe i should have deduced it to oblivion before posting it here. good thing my ego isn't depending on any support from the juggernauts at ATS

but maybe that's just my lack of ability to comprehend obtuse or obfuscated texts.
that's just rude mister

if you can't decide, then it may be both...

hmm, dark place where few listen (like the freshman forums at ATS)... maybe i'm finally posting in the right place for once.

Forgive me; it was not my intention to be rude or for my comments to be perceived that way. I took your post as being a rather tongue-in-cheek commentary on those that have become far too pervasive on ATS of late. I frequently have difficulty understanding many of them as the thoughts processes -- I use the term loosely -- that went into their production seem to run at (obtuse) angles to my own. Their often execrable standards of grammar and spelling/syntax do not help much either.

In fact I rather enjoyed your post because clearly, you have a level of erudition well beyond the norm and hence it was a challenge to determine the real point of your post. So, forgive me if I missed it: I sincerely believed you were posting in jest.

By the way, I have sent you a U2U in reference to another of your threads.

Best regards,

Mike

The latter part of my reply actually was in jest. Pardon me for my egoistic way of shaking it off. No worries, friend. The poem was sincere in intent, albeit not to be taken literally. I see comedy to be somewhat of an artform of descent, and therefore have a difficult time with the concept of humor in my writing (talk about mind prison!). I will take the time later to write a "cliffs notes" to explain the poem in my own perception of its intent. The replies that I receive on ATS are very clever. Maybe I can learn a few things about humor while on my path here at ATS
