I think more people need to use it in literature. I like how you combine images of exercise and battle and science (mixed in with a little guilt and frustration) to capture the fruitless battle against a defeated foe.<BR/><BR/>Late Night Agnostic - Are they all questions because he's an agnostic? If it were Late Night Atheist, would they be all assertions?<BR/><BR/>Judging by the work of yours I've read, you're very good at capturing the emptiness of a life spent pursuing this culture's idols. I'm thinking of Saturday Jones (is that the name?) and the real estate agent getting seduced by the woman with all the fire imagery. I wonder what it would look like to capture with such skill the other side of the coin - a life lived to the fullest in the love of Christ. I'm honestly not sure I know. Angst makes for such good literary motivation. Wouldn't it be an interesting challenge to capture peace in poetry? I may have to try it some day.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15344649128973165027noreply@blogger.com
