On Cleaning the Basement

[Nietzche]

[Someone remind me if I have already posted this . . . ]
Derivations of a theme
Machinations of the mind
And the terrible tutelage of lore –
Inhabitants of this pedantic wasteland
Cupbearers of the intelligentsia
I deem your countenance familiar
As it accumulates dust . . .
- Spontaneity: a buttress in my cerebral cathedral -
Oh Virginia,
I was never afraid
Do I too receive.
As a token for my efforts,
A room of my own?
Or must I persist
In this lonely chamber of decay . .
Heh, we never even bothered to patch up our problems
But wore our cracks and blemishes
As regalia of our station
Fulfilling our prophecy
To wallow in discontent
Keeping maternal watch
Over larvae raised in
Stagnate puddles of sentimentality
This too once was cherished
And this bears signs of loving ware
Tonight we’ll empty our closets
And purge our past
Unleashing specters
Best kept hidden and repressed

umm if you have posted it beore I didnt get to read it....
Nietzche why oh why do you make it so hard for me to reply to your work? your way with words is simply stunning, but when Im done reading it I can never think of anything to say...I guess Im left speachless in awe of your amazing mind (why cant I say stuff like that when Im sucking up to teachers or better marks? ). I love reding your work Nietzche, love it!

I'm going to stand here open mouthed and echo what harrasser said. I'm rarely left wordless, but this is one of those times. So rest assured that when I stand here open mouthed, its in appreciation.

-plaz out-

Stun them with a quick wit and a complicated mind... well done darling!!! I adore the way you use your words, so carefully and carelessley all at once. To make it appear as a random coincidence that beauty can be stated in such a way, and to do it so well. I become a better writer when I read your work.
