How would defend this story against this statement.
"Because it does not tell the truth, imaginative literature must shut down readers' rational faculties, in order that it can appeal to their emotions; the effect of such literature, then, is to weaken the minds of its readers."-Plato

I lie crying on my bed after reading sobbing running tears, I cannot deny that I hold so true to my warm heart, as the head jerks while the hands grab the years, of the story foretold of the Athens , oh, most dear, let the tears come to rest as I'm touched by you, seeing the maket square while the rooster roars, of the only thing that I only know is that I love you, examining the poets,artians and oracle's folklore, my eyes awaken as Plato comes sitting in a trance , we" love you" blaring in my ears listening to the gentle winds soar, neither, of us can pretend that we didn't love the stance, my blood boils to violently shake out tears , I will not leave you sitting next to the inmate's bed, i wll not leave my only friend I hold you dear, for without the examination I would of stayed by the riverbed, wondering what the only thing I not could not known, that loving is the examination is the only worthy thing living, the only thing I know of the worhty thing that loving is the thing...

I'm trying to find an image of this certain pating on the web but I don't know it's name.

It's a guy wearing red and a girl wearing a translucent white robe (or something like it) on a swing, together. The swing is like in the middle of the forest. Umm, the guy has dark brown hair and the girl has dirty blonde. That's all I can remember.

Thanks a lot to who ever can help!

I've been studying art history & I've noticed in many paintings, etc. the Virgin & Jesus look pretty Italian! Is this because the artists were Italian, or the patrons were?

I've always wondered, so let me know! thx.

If space and time are connected, then before the big bang, there was no time. Is it possible to imagine a state of no time, I sure can't and it seems that even by imagining nothingness, you still feel the time pass.

anyways, you can see me in deviantart... i'm w1nt3r-th0ts23

and, can you think of a better title for this poem?

Depressed

Her head poised down as she slouched
Hearing people whisper she has no worth
But she knew, she knew she was worthless,
For she was loathed and hated since birth.

For all these years, she walked alone
Her soul feeling used, beaten and empty
She knew there was nothing left for her
Hope was long gone, there was no light to see.

Her flimsy black hair kept her from seeing,
The cruel world and its ruthless people,
She has had enough of the ferocity
But killing herself, she was not yet capable.

She knew she was unloved by every one
But she has no other better choice
Why should she spend her life with them?
When they don't want to listen to her voice?

She always questions this sour life,
But knows nobody will ever answer,
Nobody will ever be there to help,
While she just cries, her eyes glimmer.

How many days are left till she goes away?
She counts down the days eagerly and waits
She sits there by herself, lost in thoughts
Her mind drifting from the life she terribly hates.

She hid everything in her masked diary
Those emotions that she always couched
So she just lets the days pass by
Her head poised down as she slouched.

I know it's generalizing, but that is what someone told me and I've not heard this before - is it somewhat true?

Somewhere Far off from Bloomsbury

He had a bad aim because he isn't a good cowboy
And now you are both laying in the wet starchy spot.

But you don't dare complain like many times before
when you had nobody to warm your desperate bones.

Like the loneliest stray dog on earth you lost your way
in the white as snow linen map of your comfy bed.

Failed to spot its countries, mountains, rivers or seas
but made sure there was clothes on the washing line.

You sipped brandy to take English bitter weather away
Read Joyce to remind you James was out and out Irish.

You wished he'd been a cowboy but he was a writer
from a poor part of London, getting a miserly dole.

You regret John Wayne is long ago dead and gone
but as a martyr you learnt to stick with what you have.

His surname still brings memories of black currants
like he told you his classmates used to joke about.

Asked you to go and fetch him a ten Marlboro lights
and then played you The Walkivira and......

Dont have a thing to go on, no relatives, nothing to start with even. No addresses of family . No transportation privileges. Turning to yahoo answers for extreme help. At zero cost. Just starting out to search not only for employment also any grounding for my own self. I am now 45. My adopted folks are deceased. Don't even have my birth certificate.
