Even You

The critical analysis of fundamental assumptions, ideas and beliefs.

Even You

Postby dwayner79 on Tue Nov 03, 2009 4:03 pm

Even you
are
a copy cat
Worse!
a liar
and a common thief.
Because you boast
before your art,
claim to do
something new,
stand apart.
But Even you
are inspired by His brush.
Yet still you dare
to take His glory
as your own
when Even you
can't compare,
don't measure up.


Analyze me... What is the author talking about?

Judging by the way you capitalized "His" glory, you're talking about how (according to the what seems to be the opinion of the writer) we are creation of god and that nothing we do is original unto ourselves but is essentially funneled to us via God, and also thereby how God is the "creator and sustainer" of all things.

If I were to allowed to change this poem to fit my personal beliefs, the word "Him" would be an allegory for "our higher selves" of which our "personal selves" are merely a reflection. In that case this poem becomes much simpler and more humorous... that is if you know what I'm talking about when I say "higher self."
Consciousness, all Conscious beings, are the Light of Reality, the True God, and the only thing in our world that makes this place matter. Love of all beings and the goals of that love is the only thing in this world that we should strive for.

(btw, this is not my writing)

The author gives some specifics in what they are referencing. I think yours is too general. That said, I don't think I want to know what 'higher self' you are referring to...

I'm voting for Steve Jobs as a copycat off of Bill Gates ;)
