Alex of course

Post by H. Morgan »

It is pretty obvious why we are here... we want adventure... in a time that celebrates people on their looks rather than their talent or spirit... their is a void to be completed by the human soul... No more land to discover etc. Alexandrr's conquests describe a world without the boundry that killed Gods i.e. science... This world needs a hero... a challenge... murder is too common... conquest is murder with spirit... We need to find a new adventure

No one is satisfied with this era of plastic humanity, no one likes these orchestrated people... We want to recreate a golden era... One that brings music back to the standard of the masters... (Mozart, Handel, Vivaldi etc.). No more songs about dwindelling love lifes, no more black violence, no more McDonalds rush-hour lifestyle... Meaning in life is what we seek... Its what the ancients had from Alcibiades to Alexander... The meaning of elite... Human greatness... Meaning in life stems from artistic and musical influence shaping an age

I sympathise... The wonder that was Ancient Greece/Macedonia... The undiscovered countries... the essence of reality TV suggests imperfections in us all... we are not dedicated to perfect physique and those who dedicate life to epistemology suffer likewise the threat of others... Without tribalism we seem pointless... but with it we seem immoral... Perhaps it is time to suggest new religeons... Without the mass death stuff... Without the control... A simple belief that is not insulting to out new found intelligence... Maybe we need to start invading that which invades us... We may not be ugly or without voice but we are all hindered without judjement, we are screwed out opf money by legal nouns, we have strength and we have a vision that is as yet indescribable, we neeed quality in our lives instead of quantity...

I get sex when I want it, I get friends wherever I travel and I keep them. There is nothing missing in my life not even money, but I still feel lacking. Alexander The Great by that Italian historian author... Massa something... Well, it adds purpose to what I figured was an ultimately pointless buy a C.D., D.V.D., go to the cinema, take her clubbing, go to do lunch lifestyle... I saw a girl in town today who had a baby, I knew her from school, I don't want that and I don't want a child in a world where people get their eyes stabbed out! Pain is not about existence. Existence is about clarity of humanity right now and it is pretty misty... Listen to Mozart's 23rd Piano Concerto and tell me anything we have now is not just over-zealous pornograohy!!

Well, a fine bit of poetry you have written, whoever you really are, and some deep meanings, why don't you just write it all in one post and give us your real name? I particularly liked the maybe we should invade that which invades us line...very intriguing. These posts are obviously all from the same person...later Nicator
