Viewing a response to: @heretickitten/can-there-be
I suppose Kevorkian would disagree though, so again, can anything not be analyzed? Is there any thought that cannot be fought? I suppose it is the nature of truth and reality to seep its way in through the cracks in our little walls. But it is not always truth that seeps. It is that terrible black syrup, that terrible liquid that @alexbeyman writes about extensively. It is this feeling, this terrible grimness, that should not exist in life. It is not like scorching fire, or terrible plague, nor is it like pain or death of any sort. Instead, it's a crumpling. A folding of will-power, or a defeat of idealism. A negation of hope. It's a terrible thing to let the darkness in, and once you stop trying to fight it, you are either awash with it, and survive, and begin to fight once more, or you succumb, and that is that. Either way, with my writing, I hope to forge tools of all sorts, swords and shields, and all manner of weaponry to defend us from terrible, sad, and awful things. To manipulate a person, to shatter their smile, to make a good life turn bad, is not tolerable. This darkness is not to be allowed in. It must be fought, and we must win.
