Fuck Pandora’s Box, Plato’s Cave brought the world misery

You can’t un-know knowledge

Once you leave the cave the shadows are just shadows

The sun will burn your eyes

 

And the absence of my tears simply clarifies that now I know I canot love you

I'm revisiting this one and still can't decide which thread to jump in on; the poem or the comments! Both have me hooked! I need to read earlier in the evening...

thanks hun, I am seriously writing more poetry than I am notes these days. I can't shake the feeling I am going to end up with $40,000 student debt, a degree I will never use, and enough material to sell poems for 25cents a pop and turn a profit....I'm only posting like a forth of them

There is A Movement

to bypass college and get education on line free. Ha! The Millennials have decided $40M debt and no job prospects is stupid politics - the gvt in cahoots with banks again to hook folks on debt and their future income. Jobs will come back but the requirement for a college degree might ease up if colleges and universities start shutting down. Like financial institutions, degree mongers are not too big to fail - Be well and keep studying (more notes than poetry U!) - Lady A

:)

but poetry IS studying...its the study of life which is way more fasinating than popular culture and/or anthropology!

 

and yea I did self educate for a while, there is something nice about a school environment though, plus there is a huge drop student debt movement now-a-days, I am banking on it having it's version of a violent revolution and thus rendering me debt free before I am done ;) Dreams, they keep you warm at night...

Study of Life

Okay. Anthropology vs poetry, study human cultural history and evolution or write life. You got me there, woman. Write on - I agree, such dreams warm you - :) Lady A

The Rabbit Is Back!

Have you graduated yet? 40K - that used to be a mortgage. When I die, my bank will go to my grandson's college fund. Every (little) bit helps, but his parents starte saving when he was born and when relatives send money for special occasions, baptisms, confirmation et al, it goes in along with a nice slice of income. My daughter (age 41) died March 8, 2017 and I am recovering in grief syndrome - self-talk therapy is really working, writing is up and down emotionally, but it is an outlet and lady, I have been all over the map! Still, good to hear from you. I shut down my PM - distracting and I am just drained with cause. Be well and finish the degree - even if you don't pursue anthropology - a BA will get you in the door of any corporation that will train you. It is a key to the upper class - use it well and often. Congrats if you are graduating soon. Love and Prayers, allets.
