Sonnet 130

I do not dispute that Shakespeare wrote a tremendous poem in Sonnet 130, but I question it on a philosophical level. Bit rich from a sixteen year old I know.

I question whether the notion of the perception of love is correct. Is it right to love for humanity, or should not the love be given on the perception of the almost divinity of whom one loves?

Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes, our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to the small and arrogant oligarchy of those who happen to be walking about. ~ Mercutio... erm, GK Chesterton.
