We are Better Than The Immediate Gratifications we Take For Granted
Necrocosm Natterings and the Negation of the Dead
Inspired by Thomas Paine (1737–1809)’s quote, “To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead.” The titled responsion is focusing on the dead side of the conversation, a one-way discussion with nothingness.
Forget-me-not’s flowering from the earth and emerging as a colloquially branded scorpian grass offers very little relevency to of our ancestors. Ultimately this is a negation of certain knowledge claims. Made manifest, extinct and perhaps forgotten, we are living a dead language.
