It is about 0 hour in my country now; well The Time has Come and I have to write it...
We have 50 years since the Beginning of New Era for our civilisation.
According to this: the Greatest, Immortal Poet is going to speak to The One Who stands equally high if we consider the importance of the Person for Culture (you can laugh at it now,but virtual realities are based on certain metaphysical systems and Music is the starting point for the most magnificent kind of art; non-visual art...
considering that virtual reality can be visual,but in fact it is metaphysics turned into a kind of discourse, and Music is purely non-visual (say, metaphysical),we have a combination that may produce a metaphysical system passed in almost non-discoursive way; METAPHYSICS THAT SPEAKS FOR ITS OWN SELF, IN ITS MOST NATURAL 'LANGUAGE' ...
Now- The Prophet speaks to our Master;
Exegi monumentum aere perennius
reglalique situ pyramidum altius,
quod non imber edax, non aquilo impotens
possit diruere aut innumerabilis
5 annorum series et fuga tempoum.
Non omnis moriar multaque pars mei
vitabit Libitinam; usque ego postera
crescam laude recens, dum Capitolium
scandet cum tacita virgine pontifex.
10 Dicar, qua violens obstrepit Aufidus
et qua pauper aquae Daunus agrestium
regnavit poplulorum, ex humili potens,
princeps Aeolium carmen ad Italos
deduxisse modos. Sume superbiam
15 quaesitam meritis et mihi Delphica
lauro cinge volens, Melpomene, comam.
~Horace
I have created a monument more lasting than bronze
and loftier than the royal structure of the pyramids,
that which neither devouring rain, nor the unrestrained North Wind
may be able to destroy nor the immeasurable
succession of years and the flight of time.
I shall not wholly die and a greater part of me
will evade Libitina ;
continually I,
newly arisen, may be strengthened with ensuing praise so long
as the high priest climbs the Capitoline with the silent maiden.
It may be said that where the raging Aufidus roars
and where, short of water, Daunus ruled his rustic people,
powerful from a humble birth, I first brought Aeolian verse
to Italian measures. Assume the arrogance
sought for by those who have a claim to recognition,
and with the Delphian laurel,
Melpomene, willingly crown my head.
-Congratulations to Mr. Oldfield for His birthday...

Why here?
Say;no matter where-we just write it for ourselves...
Then; do not take it too seriously... I am not as mad as I seem... But it sounds well...
And: do not make me explain anything...Sorry,but I have no time and I will be not able to take part in discussions...
