A STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS

A STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS

 

James Joyce, T. S. Elliot and others were roundly condemned in their time

because people could not understand them, or understanding them, they came

to the conclusion the writers were idiots.

Well, considering the pure,  classic,  creative genius level thought common to

 both of those fine gentlemen, I have to ask;  who are the idiots ?

I ask no credit and will accept none for A STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS.

It is not my idea, I only bring the idea to you, because in the world of literature

there is no question about the desirability, no the requirment, to write from that

strange place in our minds where great ideas take root and blossom, putting down

roots in the minds of others.

Some have spoken of the ramblings of drunks and idiots.  How I would love to

read the mind of a drunk, who would not want to know the mind of an idiot ?

I have read the drivel produced by great play-writes and greater authors and I

swear to you , they would have done better had they been drunk---- the sales of

their books and plays are clear evidence of  their abilities, non-existant, if you count

the receipts.

Thank you for listening.

You are welcome for listening and shunned because of fear is strength in itself...something else to write about and yes some well known authors have crappy work like a good boy band they can't sing a good boy band author can't write but they make it look good and people buy it...I have always wondered...love digging through your archives never know what I may find thank you for sharing*)_

A drunk mind is an honest mind; just look at Bukowski. On any count, no mind should ever be dismissed as insignificant. I think Buddah was right, indeed.

Many of the great, long lasting Poets and Writers have always been either somewhat neurotic, or completely neurotic. Unfortunately..many died young. Always stay humble. Decent Piece..

[Elizabeth]

Ha! Agreed.

[Marie]

This is the first time I've seen this listed. Did someone take exception to it before?

[Eagle Cruagh]

A very few exceptions have been taken to
A STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS, a very few.

The little story of "A Stream" should quiet the
very few who did not agree, if not I have an
incredible amount of amunition left and the
ability to fire it.

Thank you ,
