Haiku for Levinas

Wild yet unhidden
Open to the elements
Time grows in the mind.

It's good but I don't understand it. Why is Levinas wild? Why is he unhidden? Why is it strange that what is wild would be unhidden? Or is it? ( You contrast, or seem to contrast, these.) Open to what elements? Time grows in the mind - because it is open to the elements? Or because time is subjective and interior?

It seems you are quite busy right now. Understandable. Still, the Lutheran Surrealist's blog isn't the same without you. :(

It's not that I'm busy, WW, is that I've become bored by Kirby's anti-Marxism.

Oh.

I understand. I truly enjoyed the debates the two of you had.

My Lutheran background (which I eventually rejected) keeps me coming back to his blog to see if he can pull off combining Lutheranism and Surrealism.

He is far more Lutheran than he thinks he is.

Thank you for the response.

Very nice.

Levinas is one of my favorites. When I argued his position on morality in Debate my argument was named; "The Leviloution."

"Leviloution"?
