in israel they have a saying: whatever good, ever came from nazareth!? in england is the same: whatever good, ever came from essex?! ah, you wouldn't know... but a lot of good came from these parts... depeche mode being one of them.
an ars dialectica has never been perfect,
only abandoned -
it was for a while the work of one man,
ant it has remained a work of, but one man,
soon the art of dialectics becme
a very cordial affair, with a third party:
a mediator.
shame, really, to see dialectics in
a bigger pile of **** than the already
squandered pile of **** of poetry...
man is born to unearth but a single
idea, t. jefferson and the lightbulb -
einstein and relativity -
opinions are fickle things -
ever changing, flamboyantly chameleon-like,
sidewinders of intellect -
ambiguity ridden -
never truly up-kept in that they
are so politicised, that they are never truly
kept -
but beliefs?! oh, my, god,
a belief is a blind man compared to
a queen of chess in terms of opinions -
to say that there isn't a truth of opinions
is accurate,
more than accurate: exact.
no one actually has any opinions
to begin with,
because the only truth with regards to
an opinion is as much as possessing
a belief without a need to prove it -
to prove an opinion is to suggest that
there is no adherence to it,
opinions are superficial,
beliefs? beliefs are murderous.
socrates merely scratched the surface
of the superficiality of holding
"strong" / "soft" beliefs -
opinions are no hardened vectors
that ideas represent -
no opinion can make a man a deadly spear
who will sacrifice everything,
social interaction to fathom his focus on
making an idea an id -
thus firmly established in replicated form
of a *thing...
a mere addition to the canvas of
the human enterprise... endeavour, if you must.
ideas are fixations, opinions are
mere gossip and frivolity -
as one might rephrase:
the frolicking of the god pan in his
****** escapades as the ***** goat,
and, nothing more!
there is no truth in terms of opinions -
only that people change their minds,
so ****** often!
people possess opinions as quickly
as they are allowed to change them,
and they do change them:
after all, what man has so few
favours to concern himself
with, as a man most opinionated?
surely the least opinionated man is
the man who seeks the least reward
from publicity, n'es pas?
the only dialectical endeavour
in terms of seeking truth is in
the realm of ideas,
but ideas aren't fickle, and by not being
fickle, they are rarely shared,
or allowed a dialogue -
like any genius (the third species,
between angel & demon), the idea
only allows a monologue...
dialectics is a dialogue...
ideas are only fathomable via dedication,
a straining exercise of ambition...
if only there was a truth to opinions,
if there were, there would be no politics...
you can engross as many and regurgitate
as many opinions as you like,
ideas do not knit or breed gossip,
opinions do...
but there's no truth in
the ars dialectica, other than the epitaph
of socrates: all i known, is that i know nothing
scio omni, id est scio nihil.
there is no need to debate opinions -
since they are just as good as lies,
only that the lie never seems to change,
but an opinion always gives into a dynamic
of a gamble, a wavering roulette.
