There Is No Stopping Me !

Its 4am.And there is silence all around. as i sit here. in this dark room. the only source of light being the monitor of my ageing pc. I sit back. and try to capture nocturnal creatures at their work. But the only sound i register is the snores coming from the adjacent room. And as i sit here typing away the keystrokes strike a fine melancholy.It has been a long time since i fell in love with typing on the keyboard. a long time indeed...off course my vocabulary has since changed from a mere syllables to a little more refined art. To me words are my colors. And i am an artist. Some say a little more of sophistication on my part shall enrich my creative writing. I however, believe that in simplicity lies the mastery. For long have i seen literary pieces being appreciated because of the flowery language and the poetry resonating from those multi-syllable words. Which leaves me flabbergasted (this by the way is one of very few long wordsthat i have taken liking to) simply because of the fact that one cannot assume that the reader is of the same or perhaps in some case of a higher intellectual level than himself. Science has proved that in the end all complexities of situations are withered down to simple impulses by the human brain. So why must we strain ourselves in our creative fervor to write in somewhat obnoxious (another of the long but rather cute wordswhich I like) flowery way..One must ask himself as to why all scientific theorems and even civil rules and regulations are kept as clear of flowery poetic language as possible because in the end its not for the others that we write. It's for us. And would we not agree that although poetry has the romantic appeal to us, we would much rather read texts written in simple language. This topic is such and so full of contradictions that one tends to lose track of his argument, but I must lay stress on the self-questioning part. i.e. what would we prefer to read in scientific journals or legal documents.or for that matter pieces of literature? Would the answer not be simple yet elegant pieces of writing or would it be multi-syllable words splashed all across giving the text poetic tinge indeed but making it rather cumbersome (yet another one) to comprehend. As for literature well for those enthusiasts doing their doctorates in literature I have only one thing to say. Everything you write is not your thesis, not your semester paper so please abstain from the usage of sophisticated words.
