The Darkest Places
(Written 2012)
Life is interesting
Not merely interesting; fascinating
Fascinating to observe
And so very interesting
I like this picture here
Not for the picture itself
But for the cultural implications—
so fascinating—
And the social implications
What a picture, what a picture
I love art because of this;
So many implications are there to observe
And all so interesting
My friend’s a romantic
He says love is the only reason for life
He’s immersed himself in his emotions
I wish I could tell him how dangerous that is
Life was not meant to be immersed in
But to be observed
And it’s so fascinating
I don’t understand how he doesn’t see it
World War One, The Great War
What a truly interesting experience
We discovered the manifestation of modern savagery
And it is so fascinating
What a pleasure to study
I don’t see the point in getting emotional about it
When there’s so much to be interested in
All the social and political and cultural implications…
END.
