Poetic Devices

Art is the magnificent expression of depression, symbolically leading to the lessening of the tight grip of mania. Breathing, living, loving; these are the phenomenal expression of mania, cutting the constrictive vine of depression at its very source. These two aesthetic categories mix and match in a beautiful manifestation of Life, as the nature of all beings, interconnecting us all and kindling a balance unlike any other, a balance which is a base supporting joy, compassion, and various other pleasures. Honoring the diversity and accepting the One is the plateau I have come to at this point in Life, and it feels nice. Singing from the core of my soul, to the core of the Earth and to the expansive mystery of the sky is the greatest gift I can give to whatever it is that allows us to be.
