What Hinders The Laughter From Being A Teacher Of The Truth?

What hinders the laughter from being a teacher of the truth?

-Horace

(From A Page)

Intractably set at odds

 No care for the twisted ties

          and quota hog-slop

“I know more

   about who killed so&so

Somewhere far and relevant no more”

 checkmate

   his voice comes on

      static intercom

“ I try not to invest so much

               in the blue eyed whore of Babylon”

                       Shared sentiment

“but knowings free,

                       long as you dig neath’ the right tree”

        final amends

“Well I could care less who

                    owns what and where I can’t even be”

                              locked eyes

                       transitory messenger

                “Well aren’t you an allegory for god”

We have produced a world of contented bodies and discontented minds.

Those moments

   You felt you’d be forever

 In that parcel

Here again,

       Gone tomorrow

Hand off what-

                -you’d never bargain

     Alight upon each spending

            Here Again,

                    Gone Tomorrow

(From A Page)

Bell of the frame

   Angle and

         Arc

 Hover hands

   heavenly

Cupped to the flame

“Mary!”

Would such salted lips

   do service

 to call so radiant a name

   Mystery disabused

           Discarded garter

 Love makes fools of us all

   dazzled go’ers on

       the shore

I haven't paid attention to anything anime/manga related in years. Time to break that when this drops! Holy fuck.. Studio-Trigger keeping it one-hundo! The art/animation *chef's kiss* ntm hitting the Ghibli-style food porn.

There's something to this type of fantasy portrayal that nails it (I'd say Morrowind has it e.g.) Where there's enough oddity/wonderment but also a tinge of familiar cosmopolitan ease.. or that's as close as I can put it to words.
