or, allen, it occurs me rhetorically to ask: are you searching for
interpretations of 'the most real' as it is? or are you striving only after
those interpretations of the most real that can somehow be made to fit
somewhere within the half finished jigsaw of your psyche, of your
psychology?

or, phrased slightly different, do you try to fit yourself in to the most
real as it is or do you try to make the most real fit in to you as you
desire it.

either

"ahh, moon of my delight that knows no wane"  -Omar Khayam

or

"we crave only reality"  -Thoreau

or both

(i love both - but one is poetry of desire, a yearning for something that
isn't, the other is rocks and ponds and lightwaves and stars desired, a
yearning for something that is ("fish in the sky"))
