RE: a political (and spiritual) being

My Goodness, Daniel,
John O.
 
What goodness would that be?
Daniel

I seem to have touched a nerve. Interesting.
John O.
 
In my world, every time a person is touched nerves are involved.
Daniel

A few small notes:

There is nothing even slightly "religious" about my relationship with
Kafka's works.
John O.
 
I know, just like there isn't any alcohol in near beer.
Daniel

I'm not particularly worried about "what amuses others."
John O.
 
Of course not, but one man's amusement is another's meaning, I thought you'd
know that. I am interested in others therefore I am interested in what
amuses them. You are interested in golf, philosophy, and Kafka; that
interests me especially when, politically you have some much to say that
effects others and their amusements. I am amused by Kafka by have not dined
with him.
Daniel

There's no "bowing and scraping" necessary in Omlor world, but it's
certainly not prohibited. And if that sort of thing gets you off, I say go
for it.
John O.
 
But there are others who ascribe to and inhabit Omlor world besides you who
have demanded bowing and scraping. Didn't Trotsky have a Chauffer? Didn't
he know how to drive? I use Trotsky, not because I associate him with you
but he like you lived in the fable free Omlor world except he thought it
ought to be a worker's paradise but I guess some one has to peel the grapes.
Omlor world has no way of deciding what is all the best except each
individual Omlor and yet this "all the best" advocated by each of them for
all the other Omlors, interesting.
Daniel

Marx and Lenin have nothing to do with anything I have written. I I think
they are dinosaurs, one quaint, the other not so quaint.
John O.
 
They do have something to do with you, that being, they too lived in the
Omlor world free of Fairies and had a political vision the advanced with
rhetoric. Now, they may have been vipers in Omlor world and you are only a
constrictor but both are deadly, one just has a striker kill zone. Where
the constrictor requires size (and you don't seem to value size at this
time) the other is just as deadly when new out of the egg. Marx and Lenin
were the latest example of the Omlor world colliding with much light, heat,
and smoke.
Daniel

I do not play with guns, have never been in prison, don't mess much with
genomes, and am perfectly happy and at peace with life here in my world.
I'm sorry you find that so troubling.
John O.
 
I am glad that you are at peace, but if threatened, what then? There are
many more inhabitants of Omlor world who are not so content but the power,
politics and rhetoric of Omlor world when activated have proven to be
produce plenty of prisons and societal engineering. Again, as far as we
know you are fangless but not all Omlors are. I suspect you do find it just
as troubling if there is any truth in your political rhetoric or was all
that just for fun? Come now, being still does not mean at peace and your
happiness does ensure the happiness of your prey. Again, we are playing but
no one is stupid here. You must bring up your game, bluffing only fools
those who haven't seen your cards John.
Daniel

And, although I might find some who believe in them a bit worrisome, I
certainly fear nothing personally from your old fables.
John O.
 
That's it, "some who believe in them a bit worrisome" is where the power of
the "old fables" resides. Of course that is what Omlors would worry about.
They cannot allow the Church to stand it reminds them of the precariousness
of Omlor world.
Daniel

They are amusing stories.
John O.
 
Yes they are.
Daniel

Hang in there, and enjoy the day.
John
 
I am, very much. Thank you. We were going to hoist a few with a departing
comrade but that plan was over taken by events so now I go home to spend the
evening with my family; so from one joy to the next.

I have.
John .
 
I am glad that you can enjoy your day, without joy what is left?
Daniel

All the best, in everything, Daniel, in life and love and food and drink and
sex and drugs and rock and roll and all the rest,
John O.
 
Thank you, the same to you sin drugs unless you count food as a drug. But
like for so many moderns I hope this day is not an anomaly.
Daniel

--John (smiling and celebrating in godless and tooth fairy-free tranquility)

 
Daniel
likewise smiling with God saturated tranquility and transcendent Kinetic
meaning with no desire to chemically numb my senses, life unadulterated.
 
So, to yet further chapters in this, our, "War of the Worlds".
