Agreed. Considering the time we spend on it ... it's sheer waste. I am reminded of these lines from (I think) one of your favorite poets:


My desire to swim further I have //
Thrown out, and am charged by the thrill //
Of the sun coming up


(From "Double Dream of Spring", I think)

Yes, he is one who gave his soul away. This irony in yearning for the ethereal... How to reduce oneself is to exalt oneself.
