I don't get it ? You get depressed about your own writing, and yet you hold up a million year old piece of ka-ka   best seller as something that endures ....The problem with Gilgamesh is that it was written for song or more realistically RAP---
and like rap you don't read this stuff ... you rap it ..
OK here is your ticket to fame (and fortune)
..you and your son get dressed up as
cromagma men or better yet sadu sages
wearing loin cloths....memorize the text
.....the club lights  go low and there is
much anticipation with the advanced billing
"Gilgamesh Uncensored".....father and son rap out Gilgamesh 
to a saucy beat and the crowd goes wild
and carries you out on their shoulders ......Py
Ps    It would be most effective if. you came
right on after the rabbit and the hat routine. -- To terminate puerile preservation prattling among pals and the uncoffee-ed, or to change your settings, go to: http://listserv.icors.org/archives/bullamanka-pinheads.html
