Tales from the Soft Underbelly of Confusion

What does it mean to have a personality that is slightly skewed? I am not speaking of one that throughout its earthly tenure exhibits qualities of excess be they psychosomatic anal psychotic delusional or narcissistic; I am speaking of a personality that on occasion given the depth of emotional entrapment takes matters to the edge of predictable behavior and beyond thus shedding light upon the darkness lurking there.</P>Although these qualities might at times apply to some or all of the main characters here they primarily serve as the necessary yet impure ingredients for the alchemist's journey; and as such they point out the twists and turns of hints and allusions the oddness of the plots and of course the suggestion of larger more intangible issues.</P>In <I>Tales from the Soft Underbelly of Confusion</I> character impurities-and our rigorous attempt to sublimate and repress them-are subtle reminders of the cosmic hoop through which we jump to keep our world ordered and sane.</P>
