A Conclusion - Journal Xi

A CONCLUSION - JOURNAL XI It’s a Walt Disney, Looney Tunes world Why? Because I cannot identify with it in my waking hours Contradiction is rife The love-hate mishmash is widely popular Those of our younger populace seem to identify The movies, the songs, the unpredictable behavior are testimony The world is, from sea to sea, a religious and political ritual of violence, noise, hunger and turmoil There has been no period of world peace such as happened after World War I Witness such immature nonsense as the mining- up of comic book characters, Big as the latest gigantic movie screens Some things, like Archie, deserve to die or, at least fade from memory What happened to absolute music, that needing no words of explanation, that requiring an artistic use of imagination? In these last few I would explore the inner for mental balance, escape Bugs Bunny
