Analysis of The Dostoyevsky conundrum
Rasmus Berggren 2002 (Linkoping)
Look inside yourself, inside every dark corner and disgusting thought
Have you found what I found ?
We all do have it, but it's the few that admits it
We all are scared of it, because we all live it.
The self destruction is a beauty.
Something no man will ever escape
or in fact
something no man ever wants to escape
Paradise to man is rather a hell filled hole
As soon as we find the peace we strive for, we are obliged to the survival of humanity to destroy it
For what else is a world of peace, than a world of horror
Give man all he wants, and he will burn it, just to live one more moment in desperation
Because we all know, a paradise is nothing man ever was cut out to live in.
