| Introduction | DISCLAIMER: I am not (nor have I ever been) a perfect practicing grammarian. So, apologies for my so-called composition faux pas,if there are any.J'aime mots even if they cannot love me back.They are colors-they create pictures,paintings,sketches. I am extremely fond of word-mixing.Who's to say if a word or a phrase is valid or not?I daresay create one if you must,if nothing else can capture what you want to say or what you mean but that unheard-of jumble of letters.Coherence should not be a question.Stream of consciousness is good and should be employed;though attempt at organization is all right.Assumption is that everything flows out of a sober mind.Be it a cloudy sober mind. What is a sober mind anyway?I always stay truthful in essence;though may not be in form.Whatever that means.Read if you must,but please do not deride.Or if you must,then kindly keep such derision to yourself.Nah,of course you are free to express your opinion.When all has been said and done,let us remember that "WORDS never fail-only the person who wields them"(says J.Zafra,one of my favorite writers).Très bien,en effet. Nah, must we be so serious? Cheers^_^ |
