“Deconstruction insists not that truth is illusory but that it is institutional.” Terry Eagleton
Horizon Decon I'm digging up my highway, deconstructing my horizon, I'm celebrating the wheels falling of my juggernaut, ceasing making meaning where meaning can never be found, letting go the madness of plausible voices, that eternal cat's cradle of string never to unravel, I'm taking down the frame-work of dull sensibility, I'm making space for working with what I've already been given.

Oh,no, grad school flashback! I had to read (and understand!) Terry Eagleton’s book Literary Theory: An Introduction my first semester in grad school.

Just at the point in each chapter when I finally understood whatever arcane theory he was explaining, he would then merrily deconstruct it into meaninglessness. Argh!!

The sculpture is in the block of marble…when you remove what doesn’t belong, the beauty becomes apparent. 🙂 I have been in this process of deconstructing my life for some years now, getting rid of things I don’t need and enjoying what remains. Lovely poem, Paul ❤

Yes, a reflective and intentional process that cannot be pushed, sometimes not fun either, but so worth it. Thank you for sharing a slice of your life Cheryl.
