Community Thread / Tips and Questions

Haha, lately, I have been trying to write, but I just can't put anything down, so at least you put out your horrible works instead of hiding behind the mediocre ones.

Plus nobody seems to like my songs.

BTW nice Necrophagist avatar.

DR doesn't give very in-depth crits... nor does anyone else. They need to be stepped up and at least monitored. The original intent of the thread is at least a 400 word (1 page) critique on very specific topics within the piece. It's just once again, no one reaRAB the rules, and because of this they do whatever the hell they want and ruin the thread.
 
The essay title concern with how relevant the concepts of unity and cohesion in The waste land. I have a few ideas now and some references to f.h Bradley's 'appearance and reality' essay on metaphysics and other relevant academic essays. But any thoughts would be awesome.
 
Hmm. Interesting.

Now... it comes to be what could make the most interesting novel/short story.

Eyesight... hmm, writing a novel without describing things with a visual image transcribed through someone who cannot see could be interesting, indeed.

Hearing... another possibility. I dont see such an extravagent perceptualization here.

Hmm. Got me thinking. I like the way you think, sir.
 
here are a few more parts i wrote

Alone with my thoughts, eyes toward the night sky
Waiting wondering the day that I reach my demise.
For an imperfect life, been crueller than for most
Looking forward, hoping balance to my past pain overdose.

The untimely. of Ian Curtis. Wrestle’ inside of me
Loaded gun won’t set free, but a rope will stop you breath.
For what some to fight so hard for, others to so easily concede
A selfish answer to ones problems, At such a costly degree.
 
There is a philosophical reason for the "sadness" factor being the most relevant creatively speaking, and I'll tell you why:

Happiness is static motion. Happiness is destination, happiness is the "end of the road." Happiness is being content, is being satisfied. Content and satisfied is static motion. Static motion is philosophical death. Life is a journey, not a destination.

When you're sad, when things suck; you seek to improve. You question, analyze, interpret, decide, move. You seek the destination, you fight, you struggle; you're mortal and you need to move on.

There is no reason to discuss, analyze, or seek betterment when you are content. Being content is the destination, it's what you want. This is no movement of the mind or of anything. You may as well be dead.

Sadness and melancholy are true mortal emotions. Find beauty in the dissonance, and know that life is meant to be doomed to failure. Find comfort in the fact that you will never be truely happy; that your purpose is to move with depression, not to stand still with contentness.
