i have to find out what this is supposed to mean..and my noodle is fried please if anyone has any suggistions?
it goes like this...............

he is quick, thinking in clear images.
i am slow, thinking in broken images.
he becomes dull, trusting his clear images.
i become strong, mistrusting my broken images.
trusting his images, he assumes thier relevance.
mistrusting my images, i question thier relevance.
assuming thier relevance,he assumes the fact.
questioning thier relevance, i question the fact.
when the fact fails him, he questions thier senses.
when the fact fails me, i approve my senses.
he contiunes quick and dull in his clear images.
i contiune slow and sharp in my broken images.
he is a new confussion of his understanding.
i am a new understanding of my confussion.

does this make sense to anyboby? or is my instructor WACKED...any ideais?

If the world were perfect ....things would be monotonous and boring. Adversity, detours and complications along life's way is what gives us greater appreciation of things....we are made up of the bits/pieces we pick up along the way...

deep, huh?
kath

WOW kATH!!!!! i am super impressed!! did you write that? If not you should have.

by the way...how'd the test go whichru????

Awwww, c'mon now, Kath--------you wrote the rhyme! We know that! Or else you're writing to the guy who wrote the rhyme or somethin'--------nobody is that smart! Explain how you got that out of all that nonsense, please.

All I know for sure is that if somebody had given me that convoluted gobbledygook when I first got sober, I'd have probably put it where he'd have had to go after it with a flashlight. I'm sober over 18 years and it gave me a headache!

LMAO! No, it doesn't make any sense. What the hell is a broken image? Quick & dull? Slow & sharp? And who is "he", anyway. "When the fact fails him, he questions their senses." Huh?

Maybe the test is to see if you can spot BS when you see it. Or bad poetry.

ok...i think faulkner must have written this ....cause this is another thing i found in a book titled "light in august"by faulkner.....and i was like ewweewww and then i remembered this and what kathy said and i thought hummm....does this one make any sense.....

now that was one paragraph that had absolutely nothing to do with the text that i can figure...i think they want you to think your on drugs even if your not.....lol

i wrote what you said it was and i passed with a b-....there was 160 questions. alot of terminology. so thanks alot for your help

I don't get it! What was the answer? Maybe I am the one who is "whacked".

there is no answer...everyone has there own ....its all about how you see it..which i couldent so thats why i needed the help. i wont work in a noodle (head) doctors office.thats for sure there way too deep

NO SILLYS!!! Go back and read the original:

he is quick, thinking in clear images.
i am slow, thinking in broken images.

INDICATING SOMEONE WHO SEES THINGS PERFECT, when IN FACT WE KNOW THEY AREN'T


he becomes dull, trusting his clear images.
i become strong, mistrusting my broken images.

HIS PERFECT WORLD IS FRUITLESS, DULL, YET OUR REALITY MAKES US STRONG


trusting his images, he assumes thier relevance.
mistrusting my images, i question thier relevance.

THEREFORE, HE IS MISLED BY SURFACE THINGS, WE LEARN TO NOT ALWAYS TRUST

assuming thier relevance,he assumes the fact.
questioning thier relevance, i question the fact.

AND HE GOES FORWARD WITH FALSE KNOWLEDGE, BUT WE HAVE LEARNED AND KNOW BETTER

when the fact fails him, he questions thier senses.
when the fact fails me, i approve my senses.

WE LEARN WHEN WE FAIL

he contiunes quick and dull in his clear images.
i contiune slow and sharp in my broken images.

AND WE PROCEED WITH CAUTION, HAVING LEARNED OUR LESSON

he is a new confussion of his understanding.
i am a new understanding of my confussion.

AND HE, WHO ONLY WORKED WITH SURFACE THINGS...is confused...while WE ARE SMARTER FOR HAVING GONE THE HARDER ROUTE.....THEREFORE:

OK Kath------whatever you say girl---------but I don't WAAAANNNA go back and read it! Makes me nauuuuseous to read it! :yuck: (sob, sob, plead, plead) ROFLMBO

Big hugs for you whicru. I can't tell you how proud I am that you're doing this treatment and giving it your best shot. You hang in there, because I promise you, you won't always have to figure out stuff only Kath can figure out. LOL This too shall pass, as they say. :D

well kathy...my bad i thought it had nothing to do with the story.....lol silly me....too many words for my itsy witsy brain to read all at once...and it was a lumber mill in 1930's i think..in mississippi.....thanks

damn..............i could of gotten a (A) !!!..............do you know anything about medical terminology?.....thats my next test on monday.......................

hit me with your best shot..or hypodermic...or funny bone LOL....let us know what you have...we'll do our best!!

kath

ok my new words that i am having a problem with are se even subcutaneous i think thats how it,s spelled. and spermat (or) spermetozon? zoon? something like it and otolaryologist? i know the last one is a specialist. but ??? help if you can thanks a million

the otolaryngologist is an ear, nose, throat doctor. Subcutaneous means "under the skin". Had to consult a dictionary on the spermatozoa:

sper|ma|to|zo|on or sper|ma|to|zo| «SPUR muh tuh ZOH uhn», noun, plural -zo|a «-ZOH uh». a male reproductive cell; sperm cell. A typical spermatozoon has a head, neck, and long, threadlike tail.


Neener, neener, Kath------you got the obtuse poem but I nailed medical terminology.


:fb:

LOL ... I thought the lumber mill was an orphanage! shows what I don't know:(
