your work has quality . Thanks again for your praise JohnDoe7, happy to have found a fan in you. At the risk of shamelessly self-promoting, I also have a poem about money: https://www.deviantart.com/doolhoofd/art/Posh-Dosh-770553945 And a journal with ten quotes about the Sun and the Stars: https:/...

your poem is that good IMO - do you have more work? curious. Thanks! :D I have a complaint against Spectacle Society (not poetry even though the category says otherwise, system's messed up because of Eclipse). https://www.deviantart.com/doolhoofd/art/Fodder-n-Frivolities-678396762 And I have a jour...

Okay; a teaser, then. Paragraph sixteen of the essay, which deals with new cinema technologies.
