| Posted by Ashok Sharda on 08/04/04 at 02:24 PM Yes, WILL TO MEANING is, in which manifests, the basic human urge of a true artist. NOt in Power as that of a mediocre, nor in pleasure as that of a simpleton. This sensitive being is an observer, ever in quest for the meaning of life, reflecting the contemporary world, without any malice or subjective designs.'a true poet resides
in the space of non-titles
where only intention matters' where only purpose of life matters. His purpose.And this is always will to a refined survival which manifests in WILL TO MEANING. This is a beautiful and very meaningful piece. I think I am bound to give you full marks, which in pathetic term means: Brilliant, out standing flow, vivid and memorable.

| Posted by Max Bouillet on 08/16/04 at 03:19 PM I agree one hundred percent, however I am an insecure hypocrite and the validation is nice sometimes. ;) |
