"Sarcasm, I feel, abolishes one's ability to tell a cold sober truth, even to oneself. Sarcasm weakens the connection of two souls and tarnishes a pure emotion. I don't like sarcasm. Then there is wit, I like wit. I like dark humour. But, not often do I see people using their wit without the act of sarcasm.
Two years ago I made the suggestion to my best friend, or rather the command to erase sarcasm from our language to eachother because I saw it as an atrophy of communion. I felt that once comfortable with the use of acrimony, and once it has found its place in our trivial and/or intimate conversation, wholesome communication will come to a dead end. Dried up and insincere. I was right.
While reading my book, I came to remember my intentions when I brought upon this idea. I remembered sitting at the end of the bed that day with the ambition to harmonize and bring together the souls of lovers and friends, closer, as close as possible. With the theory that through constant confession (or to live as water in water) the stimulation of the deepest self truths would come to light and pass through to the spirit's language causing the osmosis of two beings, an alive connection. Spark to plug. Sincerity is a bullet hole through the void of detatchment and into eachother, creating an open wound (passage) through which a constant flow of life can be possible between two individuals who, then on, can share the same breath and actually find freedom inside ourselves and within one another."
