The Inherent Corruptibility of Communication

in every serious human idea presented to the world as an engagement with it there is an unavoidable lacking in meaning which becomes left behind in the womb like a stillborn freak of words sticking in the mire of that amorphous sludge of unutterable intuitions and emotions, the uniqueness of personality, from which it originates. ponder this: yes, in every serious human idea presented to the world as an engagement with it something dire is lost, even has to become lost: drag out - isolate - the flash of genius from the complex electricity of personality; define it with language; compromise as to make it as commonly understandable as possible, and it too shall die; every idea that is born out of the genuinety of individuality, having been ouroborically fostered, nurtured by it, but has shifted into depending essentially on the mechanisms of the outside and its automation with the social machinery of communication as a measure of involuntary and instinctual endurance in order to thrive in continuity, shall wither with the systems of socialization on whose waves it floats, for they can not be of eternal substance; they too are aghast by the wraith of ominous impermanence haunting and spooking like acoustic feedback all around, bouncing, looping in the rehearsal room of eschatorchestra, the final and ultimate end, with which the idea in itself has become inseparable.
