The tears of the unicorn
the world is a changed place, the unicorn sheds its tears in silence and pain. its tears mark the end of an age of idealism and the start of the age of doing away with everyone for everything. the age of the myth is over, the magic is gone....it chugs out soot from the factories and the sky is grey now. people do not laugh and cry in joy, they do not sing...they muffle up their faces and their tongues.

I agree that this world is changing place from primitive naked tribal to deadly terroist until now....
Finally ,it will be void,i mean that it will be destroyed.
But ,I am happy to sing that this world is not my HOME.

Its a mythical beginning to a legend and myth, 'the world is changing' or 'a changed place'. If you watched the movie LOTR...it begins like this too. Its the very language of lore. I took on a mythical character, the Unicorn with its largescale associations with beauty, power, and virginity and deeply inspired by a dark and powerful book by Iris Murdoch 'The Unicorn'. The tears symbolise weeping for the time gone by, the tears of a mythical Unicorn of supreme power are also powerful and magical and can heal. Writing itself is powerful and purgative and healer beyond belief.
I took on the pseudonym of Myth as that was the most appropriate. The values of life have also become a myth to most people. We practice one and preach another way. Values have become as depraved as abused. The world may destroy itself or not but it may become its own nemesis. We are powerful and sitting on nuclear weapons that can destroy the world 60 times over....isnt once enough? Man has become the immoral lord of the beasts and much worse than them, even the beasts act more responsibly than Man. Who gives him power? He grabs it himself. In my later posts this beast is like Fury itself. Hideous and to be greatly feared.
I am an idealist and can live and die for my ideas, and I suspect despite everything I would die as one too, genuinely believing love conquers all and finally the world would be a happy place.
