What of Utopia?

145

Depart.

To be anti-utopian.  Seems to be a much easier concept to champion for anyone who is at all privileged.  However, I see there to be many flaws in a utopian society.  For one, there would be no source of driving and engaging creative inspiration.  Out of tragedy arises the beautiful muse in her most necessary and apposite form.  Times of calamity cause the blood of the primordial urge to create to boil within the soul and burst forth in a wellspring of inventive juice.  Dread always soars faster but never fear to chase it.

Smuggle it in.  Smuggle it all in.  To this life that is.  Meaning (Camus), ethics (Kierkeggard (Abraham)), clarity (God!), empathy (everybody).  If you feel murderous, then kill something.  \\\\\\\\\\\  It can be good to be a murderous cat.  Killin’ it here, killin’ it there.  I mean not to befuddle, but you you and you know what I’m talking about. Right, ya ok, moving on, can we? Shall we? Please? Ok thanks. I know you don’t mind.  I just gotta kill this.
