Poetry: The arrangement of words, rhymed or not, by a sub-population of people of over-abundant emotions, to address their cognitive and emotional needs. It is never meant to or could be clear in its meaning, or meanings. The only agreement between readers and authors of poetry is that neither camp can agree on what it is about. An art of simultaneously engaging in revelation and concealment.
Trafic light: The device that always seems to stop whatever you want to do.
Woman: 1) One pole of perpetual love-hatred relation. The other pole is of course being man.
2) The half of population that men constantly run into and away from.
3) The half of the human species who use the nebulous word "love" profusely and mistakenly.
4) The exact opposite of antiques in value appreciation.
Love: A tiny minority of people feel or say it in giving; A vast majorty feel or say it in getting. What's confounding is this: most people feel they are giving while they are in fact on the receiving end.
Marriage: A couple who figured that sticking together was a better alternative.
Happiness: A fleeting moment of euphoria between two everlasting miseries.
Beauty: Before a pleasant woman could show her repellent side.
George Walker Bush: The 43rd President of the United States who, to ease hard thinking, took obstinacy as a prime virtue.
Music: Good music speaks so eloquently of things whose substances are much in doubt. As if a strong verdict took appearence before there are facts.
Sex: A ticklish trick God palyed on us and we do it earnestly.
Obstinacy: Synonymous with stubbornness. There is no better living illustration of the quality in the person of George Walker Bush, The 43rd President of the United States who, to ease the hard work of thinking, took it as a prime virtue.

Preface: alternately prologue or introduction, a part written by the author or someone else to introduce a book. Its usefulness is usually in reverse proportion to its length. Most prefaces seem to be written with the intention of thoroughly killing reader's interest in the book. In the extreme case, a book was written to introduce a preface. The advice: skip it and go straight for the kill.
Understanding: to understand is to guess, except when the object of understanding is a purely logical construct.
Words: our first theory or theories.
Vanity: what makes people do what they do.
Identity: some people will do everything to have one. - Re: from New Devil's Dictionaryposted on 10/26/2006
Devil: is a preface:) - Re: from New Devil's Dictionaryposted on 11/05/2006
Life: a school where reality disciplines.
Love: oftentimes a mistaken identity.

People: general traits of northern people: loyal but foolhardy; those of their southern counterparts: sensitive but slippery.
Ball Game: out of boredom, people create difficulty for themselves to get balls in a small hole or net. - Re: from New Devil's Dictionaryposted on 11/05/2006
school: a place where an angel in and double of devils out :)

Is this too cynical or I'm just way too old?
To alienate the whole world was what we did pre-30, then to embrace vampire with love thereafter :- )

Opera: Instead of having a normal discourse to solve their problems, a bunch of heavily weighted people with strong lungs and strong will magnify their issues 100 times and try to outcry each other by chanting and wailing. - Re: from New Devil's Dictionaryposted on 11/13/2006
Dictionary: Instead of having a normal discourse to solve his problems, the Devil compiles exaggerated versions of them into a dictionary.
Sorry Dev. Can't help it. :)
