Frankly... hoping for

lays claim... again.

I'm afraid this is no
age of enlightenment,
as I'm well aware you know,
my friend,
but let us study the remains ..

Ah... forensic poetry no less... what an idea...
I understand that I may have to settle for self-enlighenment...
Seeing as civilization seems to be trundling down
the wrong path altogether...
But when the smoke clears there should be a mountain of evidence
to glean... from the scene... Ely

Looking at what is called "The age of enlightenment" makes me wonder what they actually mean by that word. I think it needs to be considered that the term was heavily propagated by members of freemasonic lodges. To fully understand one needs to look deeper into the agenda of freemasonry.
It seems I am diverting into a different direction from where you intend to go in though. I think you just want to have some clarity on a few subjects before you croak, which is understandable.

Ange my dear... sometime you do over-analyze...
just a wee little bit...
You are correct that one needs to look at the word from the perspective of the poet
who wrote it...
Dartford actually brought up the phrase in his commentary.
And your take on my write is correct... I referred to personal enlightenment before I"croak" as you put it... giggle Ely

By the bye, Ange... I believe the third word in the second paragraph you meant *digress*... not divert. ;D ely
