I agree 100% with your opinion but sometimes my w-i-s-h that it were otherwise swamps my resolve. I try to live according to mythic models as Joseph Campbell taught: Orpheus and Odysseus are my models, with the very ancient figure of GILGAMESH looming in the background. But these models are really a way of interpreting what has happened: they cannot predict the future, except in the most general terms. So I am left with your complex closing assertion: MAKE BELIEVE, SINUOUS FRAUD, IS THE GOAL, THE PERFECT STING. You are affirming our poetic imagination, but also acknowledging its limitations when confronted by the Great Unknown which is human life.
