Dear William McKeen,

In my frame of reference what you’ve written belongs in the realm of literary philosophy, or poetic philosophy, rather than analytic philosophy. So the question for me becomes — as it would for any work of art — “Do I understand or get something from this poem?

The picture and words evoked some feelings in me and I experienced some of it as beautiful.

I thought I understood at least some of it and the general tenor of your intent, and I was also left confused and very uncertain about other parts.

As you probably know from reading my article I propose within Wholistic Existential Anthropology a triadic view of reality rather than a dualistic one (Yin/Yang) or a unity view (Tao).

I hope this response meets some of your expectations.
