I AM !
I am: yet what I am none cares or knows,
My friends forsake me like a memory lost;
I am the self-consumer of my woes,
They rise and vanish in oblivious host,
Like shades in love and death's oblivion lost;
And yet I am! and live with shadows tost
Into the nothingness of scorn and noise,
Into the living sea of waking dreams,
Where there is neither sense of life nor joys,
But the vast shipwreck of my life's esteems;
And e'en the dearest--that I loved the best--
Are strange--nay, rather stranger than the rest.
I long for scenes where man has never trod;
A place where woman never smil'd or wept;
There to abide with my creator, God,
And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept:
Untroubling and untroubled where I lie;
The grass below--above the vaulted sky.
- John Clare

Now I can post about politics :)
.....And stuff...
My political ideology summed-up in a < 15 second clip:
I guess I’m enthralled with reading about the exploits of other, greater men.
Not that I want to emulate them, per se, or to have been in their place, or to have survived in the engagements they were in.
Just to have been there would have been enough; To have been there and died.
Better than continuing to live on in our decaying, virtually hopeless societies.
I don't know man, whatever...
