Providence Also Moves Me

Fantastic response to an article he read in the NY Times. Rich JC uses a journalistic style, leading in with a couple lines before he reveals his subject.

Then in an exaggerated romantic tone he tells the beginning of his mock-infatuation.

And then for the real gem, he drops mad knowledge when explaining why a seemingly meaningless lyric means so much to him (so he says tongue in cheek) with this sentence: "Language related arts draw their creativity from their receivers. All that they need to do is make you receptive. ...all it does is make you relax and open up to the infinity of possible meanings conveyed by the words. Similarly, poetry needs only to convince you of its success, its creativity, for you to indeed find it creativity. It is all about mood."

And finally as he concludes his piece his tone continues strong especially with his final image. Getting somewhere with this.

Check it out.
