A few examples:

He acquired his sobriquet by his fondness for chuck steak, which in the wild days of his youth he cooked on a stick over gutter fires. [Herbert Asbury, "The Gangs of New York"]

It was only two weeks or so since she had the kid. And it was a pretty good size one. Eight pounds somethin. I dont know exactly, but somethin like that. She said it was like shittin a watermelon. Havin a kid. [Hubert Selby, Jr., "Last Exit to Brooklyn"]

...but she was a nymphet, and her ivory pale legs and lily neck formed for one memorable moment a most pleasureable antiphony (in terms of spinal music) to my desire for Lolita, brown and pink, flushed and fouled. [Vladimir Nabokov, "Lolita"]

i didn't know where to post it...i thought i would post it here :)
there is a poem...please give your opinions on it...and suggestions too :) please!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dark and damp is the cave of life,
Where I lay with my eyes closed,
I dream of the time which passes by,
I breathe it through my soul.

I find it hard to catch it, whole,
to laugh and dance to its hopeful tune,
it slips away from the corners and cracks
of the little hands I own.

with a wistful smile
I watch it go,
with a wish, it would turn back,
Not even for a moment it
looks behind,
though I still watch it pass.

I look above to my dark sky,
No sun, to warm my eyes,
I find a hole in the rocky clouds,
That lets a light to shine...

It glows through the hole,
so bright and warm,
It fills my world with joy,
I lock it in my eyes and hair,
for not letting it slip by.

How many people in socalled world are awake???
And how many are asleep????(From birth tilldeath)

Some are born to Sweet Delight
Some are born to Endless Night
When soul slept in beams of Light
God appears and go is light.

A waking Eye, APrying Mind
Heart that steers is hard to bind
A hawks keen sight
YE !! Cannot bind

belief that gives them a sense of security and no wonder they become very angry with people like me who say that this security is illusary...I can not see how the smallest advantage is to be gained from decieving myself. What do you think about this? How does psychiatry induce this need for a belief system?
