I think you nailed my intent Vince, with your nutshell description of a "man made cycle of willful ignorance and even more willing oppression".<br /><br />el topo, your 2nd comment takes it even deeper, going even beyond where I was able to take it; kudos for that. <br /><br />This piece was originally going to be titled \m/AGNEt - with the final 't' being an inverted cross. (I have to find an inverted cross font, to properly spell my name for the "Church of Disinformation" we are all held in thrall before. In that respect, I intended "the internet" to be but one portion of the construct of this Church - not THE thing in itself. In the interest of offering a more direct or unmistakeable meaning, I must either improve this piece with another draft--or, simply move on to the next stage, which is incorporating its ideas into a longer, more ambitious narrative. <br /><br />Thank you both for your feedback.shaunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14054968054917843198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8038034162533056575.post-12169698690028291482010-04-22T14:35:20.159-07:002010-04-22T14:35:20.159-07:00so I've been grinding some of these ideas thro...so I've been grinding some of these ideas through my brain for a few years, and after reading an thinking about your piece last night I'm now thinking that although you're certainly right, perhaps your piece is only meant as one side of the coin.. Perhaps this interweb is an outward projection of our collective interiors, which naturally include not only our "lies" but also our truths... and maybe we're creating the blueprints for a new macro-being... and maybe we already have, but said being still struggles for some kind of transcendence or at-one-ment. and maybe it doesn't.shastahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04332494765882643040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8038034162533056575.post-61887919644931867942010-04-22T11:28:37.918-07:002010-04-22T11:28:37.918-07:00Absolute brilliance, Shaun.

An intense, intelligent piece that bequeaths the reader to wake up, take responsibility, break free of this man made cycle of willful ignorance and even more willing oppression.Vince Daemonhttp://myspace.com/vincedhorrornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8038034162533056575.post-53127007904451993302010-04-22T06:16:31.606-07:002010-04-22T06:16:31.606-07:00yesh.yesh.shastahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04332494765882643040noreply@blogger.com
