man....this is just a comment by me...
no realy significance...
but i can not read love poems or nature based pieces of writing.,
well i can...but i find them extremely boring and no matter who writes it,i will never find them interesting or remotely good in any way.

just something i needed to get out...

am i the only one?
possibly...
does it matter?
not really...

oh well...
no offence intended to anyone who enjoys them or enjoys writing them...
hell ive even tried to write one....but it just turns out shit...its just not in me.

    ha ha... reading them might not be too much fun,
    but writing them sure enough rules the world :)
    It's all yellow.

    We're all just simple reflections of nature - what force can be more inspiring - but every generation has to do something new with the same monotonous waterfalls and treelines and sunsets - if you don't put these things in perspective then they do become insipid and boring - that's what art is all about

    er
    strangle ya
    Nature ain't mah thang: that's un duh slide....

    all i have to say is..... wrong...

    we are not simple reflections of nature.... unless you live in the wild, miles away from cities or towns then that is a lie.
    we are reflections of humanity...in all its glorious shit.

    and no....not every generation deals with the same things....
    trees get cut down, cities expand and technology spreads.
    dams get built and the earth gets polluted....
    every generation has to deal with their own set of crap thatcomes along... the only things we all experience that is similar is a)taxes and b)breathing

    and not putting them into perspective is not what makes them boring.... society does.... the need to be entertained by something new every 30mins does that to us... children have been getting munipulated by the media for quite some time now and it's not going to stop.

    PS,,,
    i happen to like sunsets...

    Cities grow and crumble into dust - you know what hasn't yet - nature - bulldozed trees grow back - we are reflections of nature because our cities and houses and cars and possessions haven't changed any of our most primal instincts - haven't changed our lust and bloodshed - or love and charity - society doesn't make anything boring it just changes the mass perspective on things - art takes all these things into themselves - I have a feeling you'd like a lot of the surrealists they were all pretty much pecimists as well, most of them believed nature was all but exausted too - good luck finding something that hits home

    i have...
    its how fucked up everything is...
    i know thats been drained to death....but its whaat touches me...
    not all the time though...i just go along and wait for something that makes me think to appear...

    and you say that all our primal instincts have stayed the same..
    but you also say the media changes our perspective on things.
    aren't those really closely connected....like...almost the same

    and bulldozed trees do NOT grow back....
    this isnt fucking magic here. theres no trick to it.
    they get cleared and then we build over top and thats the end of it....
    broken buildings get either re-built or fixed and even if a town did get deserted, the land would be so fucked up that the wildlife wouldnt grow back right.

    this is not surreal...this is real life.
    just because you think that everything is ok.. and that in the end good will win over bad, doesn't make it true...
    we'd all like to think it is...but we won't know until we're there.

    FUCK I'M IN AN ARGUABLE MOOD!!!
    ARRRRGGGG!!!!!

    Scientist believe life to have almost completely ended on this planet a few times - the first thing to spring back is always plant life - it's not going anywhere - in geological time humans have barely inhabited the planet - nature always makes a comeback eventually - it might not be for thousands of years but it will come back - this isn't some fairy tale - life isn't nearly as bleak as you make it sound

    secondly instinct and perspective are hardly the same thing - instincts are carried in the genetic code from the first traces of humanity - perspective is what you get pissed off at in the world around you
  • ExodusExodus Posts: 212
    your instincts are based on what you percieve over time.

    and yes.... the world is this bleak...
    surprisingly i live fairly happily but then i start to thin kon my spare time and realize this world is going to shit.

    Well I'm not going to convince you obviously, we'll just have to agree to disagree and be influenced by different things
