Becoming a “Metaphysician of History:” the Staying Power of Your Language (With Bukowski’s Advice on Words)
So I urge You, to become a Historian and a Metaphysician of History, the subject of ‘Historical Metaphysics’ is the very truest thing to speak to the nature of Our Humanity. We are this ‘Thing.’
Becoming a “Metaphysician of History:” the Staying Power of Your Language (With Bukowski’s Advice on Words)
The languages in which You are fluent, which You have at Your disposal in conversation, essays writing, or verbal presentation. The same test by which You are to pass if You are to gain a PhD, a verbal defense of Your dissertation. What makes a doctorate or a masters candidate successful. Is to be fluent in the language and sublanguage (jargon) of Your discipline. To be an agent of the matrix, the arrays or fields of a deep concept-laden symbolic network—of signs and signifiers and their content objects. That Your language can distribute and couple with reality more deeply and widely than others. In higher resolution as well as wide field of focus [How Mr. Langan metrics true cognitive intellect].
I happen to believe that if You stay in the Academic world too long, You never rekindle the inventiveness and raw energy of Your language/writings that You held in childhood. That is, the private marketplace of ideas, [YouTube, Twitter, Substack] invigorates your work with the appealing ‘hook’ that is found in popular rock music or catchy poems. As Bukowski said, there must be energy and ‘juice’ in every line written. Your sentences must go Da-da-da-Da-da-DA rather than blah-blah-blah-blah-Blah. Academics undergo the weight of discipline and supine to the grey medium of understandability and small advancements in thought. But then they never come out the other end to make it a powerful market-tested, juicy, hook to enthrall the reader. And push the boundaries of depth penetration into Reality and its fabric. The human condition is not served, they write dry textbooks, rehashing and generalizations, instead of the stuff worthy of being instantiated into textbooks—that is, a reversal or pushing, driving to the great beyond of the boundaries of knowledge.
Metaphysical staying power comes with speaking towards profound truths of language, universe and being, only as I will say to place these as they are found naturally in a state of History. The History with its moving bodies, and unification of the material and spiritual in CTMU style self-duality and conspansion. We are striving to apply the CTMU to History, to understand the Marxist materialists before and now, and to reach back to Hegel to See the Spirit of History and the God of Dialectics.

The Alpha and Omega of any spoken alphabet can contain all possible contents and forms. You can speak it, means You conceive it. It can exist in Your mind and over Your reality. This takes ample repetition, discipline and practice.
But then You place Yourself inside of this same History, the techne-picture of Your being unveiled before God and against principalities and spirits [Heideggerian]. If the Present Moment takes on proportions of living breathing metaphysic and a continuation in the chain of history experienced now, phenomenologically, in this moment—through the slow drag of time, the ticking of the clock in cool geist. The Present is pregnant with the Past, this is Historicity of Heidegger. It is almost impossible to fathom unless You write out and speak the words, as per movie The Ten Commandments (1956) in the Pharaohs Kingdom “So let it be written, so let it be done.” If You can utter it, it is solidified into Your Psyche, if You can write it, it becomes part of Your permanent language and metaphysic.
As I say of the greatest decade for Music, the 1980s, bands/musicians combined the best of imaginative lyrics with a powerhouse melodic/rhythmic ‘hook.’ This is How poets should conduct themselves, like Bukowski and this is in the New American dasein. To entice With bold words, phraseology and have something of Magnitude behind the window dressing. Indeed, this will be the practice of the successful over the memetic Internet/Computer-Monitor/Website technologies combining into the greatest physicalist language tech. However, the real power will lay in long attention spans and longform idea sharing as with the mode of books and systematic philosophies before. The Authors of Today will have to output Websites and Books concurrently to hit hardest [the former being “alive” and “active”]. As well as give spoken exegesis of their work as proof of concept and ability.
Your Measure is what You can muster and throw on top of the philosopher’s heap. The Goldrush of the information age and a watershed of the hyperlinked knowledge fields/disciplines of the future.
Become a Metaphysician with the staying power of Your language, to advance across All things. And all things go back into Metaphysics inside of History. Amen, - Greg W.
