The Voice You Hear Within

Oden 1 Jessica Oden Dr. Willis English Comp II February 20th 2013 The sound You give a focussing When You Read Silently in that respect are numerous works or art and literature that deal with champion of the most intriguing and mysterious phenomenons in the population, the human question. Like death, and the content of the heavens, it is a secret that understructure non be unlocked, and possibly the most personal and valuable secret. The mystery lies in the whimsicalness of the almost angiotensin-converting enzyme brain with specific dreams and ideas that so-and-so not be copied or equald.This constant discrimination makes stunning the mind basically impossible. on that point could be rooms filled with charts, diagrams, studies, and experiments to e trulyplacedue with the human mind, and probably are, but at that place is no control group and hence no definite answer can be reached. Even if an answer could be found, what is the question? The human mind is ince ssantly and simultaneously complex and simple, much interchangeable the songs of Thomas lux (Thomas sixty).In Luxs poem The Voice You memorize When You Read silently he attempts to inlet and identify unrivalled aspect of the constantly mysterious mind. That utterance go outd just now in the mind. The vocalism that remembers e precisething, that reflects integrity or lack there of, and finally that explains the innovation to one person only if, forever. The conversation between the minds character and minds eye is an intimate one that can not be overheard. lore is the transfer of information from the senses to the brain, and that ever comprise familiar verbalize is narrating the whole process.Everything moldn, smelled, tasted, etc is record into the brain, and this information provides the basis for the connotation of everything perceived from that point on, Oden 2 so that the perception of the world changes constantly and in take relation to how much exposure t here is to new and unfamiliar things. on that pointfore the parting of the mind is constantly growing and expanding and create a credit all of its own. This character of the mind is what Lux is harping on in his poem, by explaining that no translators can be the same.He explains that this internal monologuer has the ability to see situations in jaded way and therefore the person will see them that way also. Chelsea Craig defined this phenomenon in a very accurate and descriptive manner This mighty and moving region is enriched by my past, declares my present, and whitethorn even foretell what is to come. (Craig 3) She gave this comment subsequently reading Luxs work and ignoring it for some metre (Craig 3).When she revisited the poem, she found that it contained an inherent truth astir(predicate) herself and every some other human (Craig 3). Where does this voice of the mind reside? It searchs to be root in the subconscious, which is the area of the brain that processes our perceptions and makes them echt ideas that we can call upon and that sometime chance on themselves randomly to us in flashes and dreams. When these ideas finicky over from the sub- to the consciene, there is a voice there to explain it all to the perceive.Lux refers to this part of the mind as a dark duomo seeming to compare the human subconscious to a Blessed vessel of information that must be valued and cared for, and so out of this cathedral comes knowledge of a world that is laborious to find out even still. Reading is on of the best ways to stimulate the mind and feed your subconscious with the images and timbers revealed from the book. The feelings invoked my the writer, the images portrayed by the poet, are all decipher by a private, bias critical voice inside the mind.This voice is very discriminating and controlling. It will take the information provided and die hard it through many filters before opening move it up to the rest of your mind, which is does wit h bias and sagaciousness and opinion. This may seem unfair, but a person directly controls what their subconscious observes by controlling how much Oden 3 of the world they are willing to be opened to. The example that Lux gives in his poem to illustrate the differences in the mind from over person to the next.The vitamin B complex to one person could be a symbol of forego time from kids running around an fire field with an abandoned building, that brings feelings of curiosity and entrance from the children who saw it, to the parents of the children who see the barn as dangerous and ugly. The dreamers and seniors will have that some other idea of what a barn is. The expression Lux uses, a centripetal constellation is lit explains how that voice takes in everything that is perceive by all the senses and makes since of them, kindred the figurative descending of a light bulb above the head when an epiphany is reached or an idea is conceived (Lux).The sound of the voice of th e mind, though a figurative idea, is also beta and directly related to the person who owns that voice. In the first part of the poem, Lux repeats the contrive say in different forms, emphasizing with repeat that the mind can actually hear this voice and that the tone of it reflects and illustrates the connotation of the run-in world said (Lux). Each inner voice has its very own unique timbre, with its own unique accent derived from the experiences and actions of the person who conceived it.The poet used a noun to explain this idea, but alluded to the effect of stronger members of a sentence such as the verb or the subject. To take this part of the equations deeper, experience that the subject and verb makes the sentence. So to expand, if just the word barn can mean so many different things to different people, look at the entire sentence. Such as, for example, She was taken into the barn. This is a very simple sentence with immaterial words, but the inner voice can interpret it as the actions of a superstar or a villain.On the one hand, a farmer could be carrying a pregnant goat into the barn to be warm while she gives birth, on the other a stranger could be carrying a young girl into the barn with abomination intentions. None of this is given to the reader in the sentence and so this inner voice uses Oden 4 what it knows to guess at the implication of the sentence. The point of this poem is to uncover some of the mystery of the human mind, but seems to only illustrate that fact that it is infinitely mysterious. There is no way to hear another persons inner voice or understand the conceptions of another entirely.There are phrases such as I know how you feel, or I can relate that seem to imply otherwise, however these phrases are generalizations, and in and of themselves subject to the connotation given them by the inner voice. Does the person really understand or are they being mordacious? Do they really have a clue what the other person is feeling ? No, it is impossible to completely put their thought process cap on and hear the voice that whispers to them, interpreting the world and everything in it, separately for that person.Oden 51.Works Cited Lux, Thomas the Voice you hear when you read silently. ed.
