Show of Hands

Wittlebaby, I really like what you've done with this poll question, artistically, metaphysically, and spiritually. It's so succinct in its exploration of what it really means to be free and to live in a free society, while also paying homage to the role of fear (of rejection, failure, etc.) in any such discussion. I also want to express my immense respect for Mr. shoeless for being the first to take on the intellectual challenge of deciphering this truly avant-garde form of artistic expression. This has to be one of the most sophisticated, cutting edge online discussion forums I've ever had the honor of being a part of.

Far deeper than my initial read. Well posed!

Or it is the same speech that abstract artists give.

Vincere - thanks and well said as well. I think it was very well posed and upon second reading, was asking a deeper question. The majority of questions can be taken at face value. This one was well beyond that.

I see it now, thank you for enlightening me. It is clearly symbolic of the serial killer as an artisan. How they are persecuted by their society and fit into the category of "starving artist," when they should really be receiving federal grants.
