The Sword of Damocles

A Haiku

The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek. —Joseph Campbell

Invert, always invert. —Carl Gustav Jacob Jacobi

Above: A rather precarious picture.

Above hangs the sword,

sharp and hungry for your head.

Why not grab its hilt?

Per my about page, White Noise is a work of experimentation. I view it as a sort of thinking aloud, a stress testing of my nascent ideas. Through it, I hope to sharpen my opinions against the whetstone of other people’s feedback, commentary, and input.

If you want to discuss any of the ideas or musings mentioned above or have any books, papers, or links that you think would be interesting to share on a future edition of White Noise, please reach out to me by replying to this email or following me on Twitter X.

With sincere gratitude,

Tom
