Introduction
The fundamental premise is to envision history as a sequence of "dialectical" conflicts. Each dialectic begins with a proposition, a thesis ...which inherently contains, or creates, its opposite - an antithesis. Thesis and antithesis. The conflict is inevitable.
But the resolution of the conflict yields something new - a synthesis - eliminating the flaws in each, leaving behind common elements and ideas.

Poem
I am the nomad, no home, no family no friend's, I am as the melancholy sound of music striking nostalgia like a match.
I am the vagabond, with no place to cling to, no one to sing to, no place to stay, no things to say.
I anticipate the hate.... The heat of the sun burns my skin, the flesh beneath my flesh is sin incarnate, I am a nomad.... I am no good.
I smell of embers burning hot like coal in a stack, train cars rumble across the tracks like thunder, rumbling slowly quietly softly, so long song, I am a vagabond.
