Historical question: The most important person in the development of western culture

Erasmus of Rotterdam. Because he wrote the colluquies. Which inspired Shakespeare, and laid the egg that Luther hatched.

And that is your answer for now, sure, it did occur,
the dark thick wood ticks that night
did worry me
though I shuck them off one by one and
then had a pleasant sleep where upon at 3 am,
I again awoke and made coffee watching the sun in the east arise
like a giant halo.

once I found a spring

then I and curiosity
found it again in the same place but it was overgrown and hiding out.

The death of Etan Patz
Posted: 7/1/2012 6:59:28 PM
I have proved love
only on a Sunday
once
then in part
nothing
the rest of this proof is up to a roof top
to disclose or decline
then it was discovered almost immediately that a flood occurred
and the issue was totally forgotten
the or they seemed to only want to address the flood arising against the cottonwood trees

Uncle Ed he had a Mystery Spot in Hope I dread
Not far from Spuzzum
With rooms that were tilted
It was all illusiom
I needed handrails
My auntie gave us shortbread
To recover from so much tilt and turbidity and the

He was a brother
unlike another
He was my brother
from a different mother
he made us laugh and jump out of pajamas
He was your brother he looked like Roterfella, Jondee,
Dressed to the nines who made it happen
He was cool as a tool
a collide-a-scope in reverse mode
on a Honda afternoon
plush with embargoes from Delores

the sun, through the blear of the window

Interesting:
from the web: "At one time soldiers in ancient Rome were paid, in part,
with a ration of salt called a solarium, from the Latin word
sal (which means salt). If a soldier's performance was not up to
standard, that soldier was said to be "not worth his salt."
Later, when salt was replaced with an actual money allowance
to buy the salt, the allowance itself was called a solarium.
Eventually, solarium came to mean the wages themselves,
and this led to our calling one's pay a salary."

Christians though derive meaning from the term salt as a metaphor:
"Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under foot of men."
The allusion here regarding salt is that it's best use, property, is for savor, or flavour, but salt is also used to preserve meat (salt cod from NFLD was the primary food for slaves in the Caribbean) and veggies (as in dried soup mixes).

I agree with flying in the metaphorical, and it's mixture with the abstract. The ideal though is the word I use to replace the abstract. Of course there are many meanings associated with the abstract.
The origin of the word salt as used in the context of the abstract, I would suggest, originated in the old english, when it was stated of a person that "he was worth his salt." The usage relates to something ideal, in terms of morality, that one is good and perhaps wise, a hard honest working person.
The metaphorical meaning therefore of salt is of a persona who possesses and ideal nature true to the definition goodness, wisdom and hard working.

thank you so much...the issue is that 99% of my intended audience or recipients would not understand a thing if I was only expressive in the abstract. When I was a lot younger: 'salt and pecker' meant' shaking it in the face of a daisy.

But dear I only write concrete poetry and I avoid the abstract....I say it as I see and feel it. Salt to me does not mean anything analogous to truth: this is an old world false biblical piece of avoidance regarding the truth and it's definitions; salt these days in this cultural causes cancer and heart attacks, or rather too much of it.
It was valuable beyond believe back in 10 BP, 20 centuries ago, more than even gold in the Inca Culture.
Look at each every label on each and every preprocessed package of food in the store: "not one has a less than a daily intake recommendation of less than20% per serving."

I cannot relate to the turn of the century biblical take on the metaphorical meaning of salt, unless someone offers me a saltina with smoked salmon, a slice of fruilano, and coursed black pepper.

I would without hesitation lick armpits, so salty that I would gag, and remove the dew from other places, especially from lips, which on occasion do sweat
the other secretious places
the glaucous membranes
the diaphanous hymenoptera (winged and thin/narrow passage way) or _ventriculous_membranacium
I am not much different than a dog, who greets you when you are wearing shorts and continues to lick you legs, slapping up all the saltina momentito. And then his master shouts at him 'lay off'.

The human armpit is also a very special organ possessing glands that secrete salt,
all of which are hairy and all hairs under armpits are straight

you cannot find any salt really in a tropical rainforest
this alkaline substance only occurs in terrestrial landscapes where
the rate of evaporation exceeds the rate of transpiration in plants
hence the occurrence of halophytes
which by their habit excrete salt from special glands
which are basically useless to men and beasts
and there is only one exception
salt historically is derived for human consumption
from places like the Salton Sea
places aquiline and aqueous that have no rivers flowing from them to the sea
those that live in the rainiest parts of the tropics get the sodium from a diet
such as bananas et cetera
those nations than can curry trade in salt begat the metaphor of worth
applied to salt, but not us, who live here, since even celery is high in sodium
and bananas are high in content of potassium
take your pick of the one electrolyte
necessary for motility

Leaf was the name of a silky woman who lived inside a vigorous and tremulous montane forest, by a raging creek that cut a canyon through towering granite mountains, and beneath eroding shale banks, and her hair was the same lustre of obsidian, her eyes sharp as black volcanic extrusions and in opposition to the magnetic gyration of the earth.
Leaf was so young, and it was difficult to tell who was older and wiser: her mother, who was partly Italian, and Amerindian, and knew the arts of both, cooking on a charcoal stove, messing around in the cocina, gathering and preparing dry-cured olives stuffed with fillings, including pimientos rojas, almonds blancos, anchovies, jalapenos, cebolla or capers: or Leaf! It was an unsolved mystery which one was younger and caused musicians to be joyous and in their collaboration not only the cocina was filled with melodic rapture, but even the vinyards and the stalls of livestock and gallinas were moved to laughter and even doric dancing.
Who could tell which one was coy? The one who was unaffected, or the other so busy messing around in la cocina? Perhaps neither fitted in with this slight, and highly provisional disclosure, and surely L and M would agree. They together in the cocina, messy, as if there would be no visitor....the weather was typical: bright sun in morning, stillness, which in itself would worry...and the lack of even cirrus stratus from the west over the Sierras.
Then when night fell all of a sudden, there was a subdued light in the sky that made it impossible to sleep or think and even dream. This light was silvery, and inside it was some rotund, actually, basilesque forms, edged, like thinnest eyebrows, perhaps alluding to Leafs.

I know vaguely the term for sage (Artemisia) and for cactus (Opuntia) but none of these terms mean any thing deep in a primordial sense, and neither does green mean anything for me when I see the sage leaves. The green of the sage leaf is part of the texture, the pubescence of the undersealed, the white reflection off the pubescen hairs, and the flat ablated part is less pubescently white but more green. I want to refer to the above as the _ousial_ portion due to the depth of the green in the leave,and the white pubescence of the underleaf as the ab-ousial part of the leaf because this is a gradient of the regional leaf as it integrates into sky, light and night, or freezing night temperatures.
