Will you ever see the real me?There’s no real me to be seen.I am a figment of my own imagination. But still, my actions hurt. How canwhat does not exist producereal results?

I feel like we have truly forgotten that poetry is intellectual. That art is intellectual. I’m not saying that you need to write following a whole lot or rules — heck I freaking love Wild Nights by Emily Dickinson which is written in Free Verse — it simply shouldn’t be simple. Because we as humans — and our human mind, heart, soul and spirt — are not simple. We are complex. So our art should be complex. We shouldn’t try to simplify complex topics for marketability, we should be delighting in the actual nature of poetry which is that it is how our souls speak. At this point we truly must fight for the survival of poetry. Not just poems but poetry. Soul. Sublimity. Passion. Beauty. Romance. Love. Poetry. Because it is a war, and indeed the very casualty might be our hearts and souls.

"Whether as drama, novel, science fiction, poetry, or an evocation of tradition, experience and fantasy must return in all their fullness to stimulate as well as to suggest."

Murray Bookchin (author, The Ecology of Freedom: The Emergence and Dissolution of Hierarchy, 1980)

I loathe small talk. Please don’t ask me how I am or how’s the family or the weather. Let’s talk psychology, philosophy or the origins of gods. Tell me what makes you laugh or what makes you cry. Tell me what scares you and what lifts you up. I want to get lost in the labyrinth of your mind.

Adam Mickiewicz’s view of Napoleon

(Portrait of Adam Mickiewicz, 1827-1828, by Walenty Wańkowicz)

Adam Mickiewicz (1798-1855) was a Polish Romantic poet, dramatist, essayist, publicist, translator and political activist. He is regarded as national poet in Poland, Lithuania and Belarus.

Napoleon’s spiritual grandeur, as Mickiewicz described it, resulted from his embodiment of the French genius and character (the sacred fire). Chosen by God for his historical role, Napoleon had come to enact all that was good and progressive in the Enlightenment while refuting the excesses of reason and rationality that were bad. Indeed, his very existence was an inexplicable mystery, a living challenge to the false assumption that all phenomena may be explained through rational laws. He represented the true objectives of the revolution (which, it is important to remember, were for Mickiewicz an expression of the Christian spirit) because he “put into practice the revolutionary ideals” and thereby proved himself to be the historical figure who “defended its ideals with the greatest and most fruitful determination.”

Mickiewicz also became a follower of the Lithuanian mystic, Andrzej Towianski. According to the historian Kramer:

Towianski saw Napoleon as a key historical predecessor who had played a major role in the divine plan to lead mankind from darkness to light and from conflict to political cooperation. Napoleon had of course failed to complete this work, but now the mission had fallen to Towianski, who claimed a special link with the deceased emperor (and whose followers often spent a night at Waterloo as part of their spiritual pilgrimages). […] Mickiewicz embraced this spiritual interpretation of Bonaparte so enthusiastically that by the time of his final lecture at the Collège de France he was distributing lithographs that depicted Napoleon grieving over a torn map of Europe.

How do I call myself a lover like you do?

I have never ever saw halos above heads

I have never ever wanted to say ‘love u g’nite’

I don’t hold hands

I don’t say sweet things

I want to wear warm sweaters

And I want to read your favorite poems

I want to go to your concerts

I want to listen to you practice your instrument

I want to be impressed by you

Call you pretty, like green glass bottles

Kiss you until I’m disgusted with the thought

How do I call myself a lover when I don’t love like you do?

#poem #poetry #love #i love you #but not really #intellectual relationship #aromantic #aroallo

i did really enjoy the insider but i have to admit that there were several points where my main reaction to what was happening on the screen was "oh dear, i guess it's time for some cinema", due to my fundamentally base nature which renders me unable to experience films correctly

#not USUALLY. but every now and then.#pacino is great in it but i only barely possess the capacity to notice that #honestly it drives me nuts that im fully able to have both a visceral and intellectual appreciation of e.g. visual art or poetry #and. you know. get things out of it. do interpretation. respond #but introduce even one shot of a film that is there for artistic purposes and im like.#well. it's clear that art is occurring. but who's to say why #zero response. just nothing there #box opener

Intellectually loved

I always held you in such high regard

Since the moment we met

That my heart overlooked taking guard

Throwing away all the boundaries I set

I wanted to always give you the benefit of the doubt

That I ignored or justified all the pain you dished out

I got used to the backwards reasonings every time you criticized me

Reassuring myself with only the idea that love sometimes is faulty

I confused knowing your love for me with tolerating the diminished truth of actually feeling your love

And the hard truth is that I intellectually knew you loved me, way more than I ever felt loved by you

‘Intellectually loved’—so romantic I know

But I think I’d have rathered your actions show

I don't want to sound like I think I know better than the academics but one of my professors analyzes poetry largely through the lens of the author's personal life and I think it's boring as hell. I think biographical knowledge of the creator should be something that adds a fun extra dimension to art but isn't necessary to its interpretation. I don't want to psychoanalyze the poet!! or I do but more in the sense that I want to make rude jokes about what their issues likely are based on their body of work without that being the primary reading

#bolo speaks #I'm not anti-intellectual I swear I just find this particular poetry class I'm in really boring

Studies done by an online dating site revealed that women find men who read highly attractive and sexy. Women love it when men have big … libraries. 😄 What about you?

A sizable chunk of my friend circle are the sort of people who already had their grand poetry induced emotional moments in highschool and college so whenever I have a mild meltdown moment over my newfound appreciation for Oscar Wilde they just give me the most affectionate version of

#idk man i didnt have a comfortable relationship with the sort of raw emotional state required for appreciating poetry until i was over 30 #i remember i tried reading dorian gray in highschool and was mainly like #this is super duper gay but everyone talks about philosophy too much ugh #was a big ol fan of bronte tho because i was a little edgelord #anyway wilde having the balls to say aphrodite sits on the throne of god in late victorian england is aspirational #also i still dont agree with some of his philosophy of art and beauty but now its in a way where like #im not annoyed at all but am very upset i can't learn necromancy just so i can summon the ghost of wilde like #'hi no idc about the after life. your character said beauty is antithetical to understanding and intellectual curiosity I just wanna talk'
