Leave me to myself so I can attempt to get this feeling out... I can get it out in words perhaps... or maybe I can sing it like the birds in the trees and in the sky... or maybe I can dance around and slap my thighs ... or maybe I can just sit here and mope and pretend to be expressing something that I don't understand.

Nine out of ten things that pass for "expression" today... in literature, popular music, conversation... even on this page, are lifeless, contrived, and to me at least, transparent. Everyone seems to think they are a creative mind, a writer, a poet, an artist. Most of the time they are sadly mistaken. I feel that if one doesn't have anything true and worthwhile to say, they should lighten up and say something fun... save the really heavy stuff for those who are deeply affected or have some insight, because let's face it, nine out of ten "emotional" things all sound the same. Nothing new, nothing original, but most of all, nothing real. People love to make themselves seem like teh victim when, let's face it: in our culture, in the year 2000, most of us have to look for something to whine about. There, i've said it... let the vehement denunciations begin....

brad, maybe everyone isn't a picasso or a maynard, but damn, in my opinion everyone is an artist. AT LEAST in their own way and they should express their opinion whenever they can. what...should they silence themselves just because they aren't fucking POE? that's not cool at all. everyone IS a poet. everyone IS an artist. some people just suck at it, but who gives a fuck? if you dont like what they have to say, or you think you could say it better, keep expressing your ideas. i mean.......what if you aren't an artist or a poet...should you be shut up?

i must agree wholeheartedly, silentbob. to add, many don't even want to admit it, hence the ignorance all over the world.

Brad, big ups to you and your thoughts.
However they are incorrect.
Everyone has a creative mind (wot bob said)....
except Britney, Agulara...etc etc. Probably Lickin Park too.
The point is that expression is what language is all about. Before language there was banging rocks with sticks and grunting, and even that was expression, just on a very small scale.
Everyone can express themselves through creating, even if they create shit, which says a lot for that particular individual.
I'd hate to argue symantics with you, hang on, no I wouldn't, but what you are talking about is creative expressiveness that you like or agree with.
Hang on, is expressiveness a word? dammit I don't care. if it's not I just created it.
