Title: "You are Jerry."
Under a very unusual string of circumstances over a period of two and a half years. Jerry has been contacted by, Gary Bernstein, the CEO of Imagicorp, the world leader in amusement park entertainment.
Dear Jerry,
Due to the recent sales of mine and my partners stocks and further investments by members of the investment fund I manage. A considerable amount of funds has been added to Imagicorps Budget this year. It goes without saying that the following information shall not be disclosed to anyone but yourself and those persons CC'd in the email.
Over the next five to ten years I plan on developing an attraction with one simple objective in mind. The single most impressive mechanical, technological, archectural monstrosity of a build this world has ever seen. This recent sales of stocks has opened this up.
The people in the CC are able to answer any question you'd like. If our personnel is not able to execute your ideas blast out an email to the emails CC'd and you will be answered. Within it are members of the CIA, Disney, the Hollywood Studios, Sony, Samsung etc etc. I assure you that your ever command will be answered with full assurance and promptness imaginable. If there are any questions over regulations email Mr. Greenberg.
And of course, the deadline for blueprints are four years from this date. And the budget is 24.7 Billion dollars. In other words. There is no budget.
P.s. Remember, the bigger the better. Greater than the greatest.

You can either choose to write professionally or just try to explain some super wild amusement park that is on the absolute cutting edge of innovation and secret government technology or whatever.

"Since I have come to know the body better," Zara-
thustra said to one of his disciples, "the spirit is to me
only quasi-spirit; and all that is 'permanent' is also a
mere parable."
"I have heard you say that once before," the disciple
replied; "and at that time you added, 'But the poets lie
too much.' Why did you say that the poets lie too
much?"
"Why?" said Zarathustra. "You ask, why? I am not
one of those whom one may ask about their why. Is my
experience but of yesterday? It was long ago that I
experienced the reasons for my opinions. Would I not
have to be a barrel of memory if I wanted to carry my
reasons around with me? It is already too much for me
to remember my own opinions; and many a bird flies
away. And now and then I also find a stray in my dove-
cot that is strange to me and trembles when I place my
hand on it. But what was it that Zarathustra once said to
you? That the poets lie too much? But Zarathustra too
is a poet. Do you now believe that he spoke the truth
here? Why do you believe that?"
The disciple answered, "I believe in Zarathustra."
But Zarathustra shook his head and smiled.
"Faith does not make me blessed," he said, "especially
not faith in me. But suppose somebody said in all seri-
ousness, the poets lie too much: he would be right; we
do lie too much. We also know too little and we are
bad learners; so we simply have to lie. And who among
us poets has not adulterated his wine? Many a poisonous
hodgepodge has been contrived in our cellars; much
that is indescribable was accomplished there. And be-
cause we know so little, the poor in spirit please us
heartily, particularly when they are young females. And
we are covetous even of those things which the old
females tell each other in the evening. That is what we
ourselves call the Eternal-Feminine in us. And, as if
there were a special secret access to knowledge, buried
for those who learn something, we believe in the people
and their 'wisdom.'

"This, however, all poets believe: that whoever
pricks up his ears as he lies in the grass or on lonely
slopes will find out something about those things that
are between heaven and earth. And when they feel
tender sentiments stirring, the poets always fancy that
nature herself is in love with them; and that she is
creeping to their ears to tell them secrets and amorous
flatteries; and of this they brag and boast before all
mortals.
"Alas, there are so many things between heaven and
earth of which only the poets have dreamed.
"And especially above the heavens: for all gods are
poets' parables, poets' prevarications. Verily, it always
lifts us higher — specifically, to the realm of the clouds:
upon these we place our motley bastards and call them
gods and overmen. For they are just light enough for
these chairs — all these gods and overmen. Ah, how
weary I am of all the imperfection which must at all
costs become eventl Ah, how weary I am of poets!"
When Zarathustra spoke thus, his disciple was angry
with him, but he remained silent. And Zarathustra too
remained silent; and his eye had turned inward as if he
were gazing into vast distances. At last he sighed and
drew a deep breath.
"I am of today and before," he said then, "but there
is something in me that is of tomorrow and the day after
tomorrow and time to come. I have grown weary of the
poets, the old and the new: superficial they all seem to
me, and shallow seas. Their thoughts have not pene-
trated deeply enough; therefore their feelings did not
touch bottom.
"Some lust and some boredom: that has so far been
their best reflection. All their harp jingling is to me the
breathing and flitting of ghosts; what have they ever
known of the fervor of tones?
"Nor are they clean enough for me: they all muddy
their waters to make them appear deep. And they like
to pose as reconcilers: but mediators and mixers they
remain for me, and half-and-half and unclean.
"Alas, I cast my net into their seas and wanted to
catch good fish; but I always pulled up the head of
some old god. Thus the sea gave him who was hungry a
stone. And they themselves may well have come from
the sea. Certainly, pearls are found in them: they are
that much more similar to hard shellfish. And instead
of a soul I often found salted slime in them.
"From the sea they learned even its vanity: is not the
sea the peacock of peacocks? Even before the ugliest
buffalo it still spreads out its tail, and never wearies of
its lace fan of silver and silk. Sulky, the buffalo stares
back, close to the sand in his soul, closer still to the
thicket, closest of all to the swamp. What are beauty
and sea and peacock's finery to him? This parable I
offer the poets. Verily, their spirit itself is the peacock of
peacocks and a sea of vanity! The spirit of the poet
craves spectators — even if only buffaloes.

"But I have grown weary of this spirit; and I foresee
that it will grow weary of itself. I have already seen the
poets changed, with their glances turned back on them-
selves. I saw ascetics of the spirit approach; they grew
out of the poets."
Thus spoke

It doesn't, unless at this point you aren't completely internally desensitized.

It seems Western culture has undergone a paradigm shift in discussing sexuality. In ages past, something like homosexuality, whether condemned or celebrated, was considered an action. One might engage in homosexual acts. There was no conception of sexual orientation as we think of it today; no-one would be called 'gay' or 'straight' regardless of their actions or inclinations. Of course, some were undoubtedly more inclined to homosexual behavior than others, for whatever reason, and others less, but even if this inclination rose to the level that the individual were associated with the act, it was still act dependent. A man with homosexual tendencies who was nonetheless married would not be considered a homosexual (if that term had any meaning as an identifier of identity and not simply action), not even if he occasionally indulged those tendencies.
Now, we view sexual orientation as a matter of categories in which individuals fall based on their desires and psychological factors. Is this view more correct and what is its basis? What are the implications for society in categorizing people by their thoughts and not their actions?

There aren't many resources on the /lit/ wiki regarding poetry besides pic related. Does anyone have some insight on where to start in this field? Anthology recs?

Personally I think Bukowski did nothing wrong, as in my experience woman are in the wrong about 100 percent of the time.

He was in the right because he was one of a kind and he made the world a more interesting place by doing shit like that. She's dead weight, just something to use for stuff like that to manifest in front of a camera for our amusement.

The chart says that I should start with "Mythology" by Edith Hamilton. It makes sense to start there and I am quite eager to read a complete collection of all the greek myths.
I found a German equivalent by Gustav Schwab which is longer (about 1000 pages total) and supposed to be a nice read.
Does somebody here have "Die schönsten Sagen des klassischen Altertums" by Gustav Schwab? Should I get it? If so, what publisher?

He was extremely important to me in my teenage years; I still think of him as a great poet, although there are better ones. "Drunken Boat" will always be a favorite poem of mine.

Im looking to get started on learning about the subjects in the title from the very beginning of written word up until now from every region of the world in chronological order so that I can have as complete a view of human history, thought, literary works and poetry as one can have outside a lifetime of academia in these subjects. Is there any kind of roadmap or guide to doing this or is this something Im going to have to blaze a trail for? Anyone interested in doing this or if you've already started or done it's advice is more than welcome. I'd do this as a major in college, but it doesn't pay the bills so this is my substitute. Anything y'all can reccommend me is more than appreciated, whether its pdfs, infographics or just written guides.
