I like it :)
as someone mentioned something as silly as Hiroshima I think I should mention I think its about over analysing yourself in order to correct/progress to a better man.
it seems dangerous to turn every tear into a waterfall with a self introspective microscope, if you fall off the horse and loose grip of the line before you reach the abyss you could break your spine.
I prefer buckaroo :)
as for the misery, you need misery and the materialisation of 'misery' in order to climb to happiness (lets call happiness 'her'), without it there is nothing to turn into judgement and therefore reason, you use it like the wrungs of a ladder in order to climb above it, the higher you climb the more misery/judgement you need from the same life, you therefore have to find waterfools worth of misery within tears or you run out of ladder :)
again, I could be all wrung or right, or somewhere inbetwix, someone wiser would have to contribute.
