Deposition

  1. The golden hour commences at 4 a.m. every morning.
  2. It ends between 6:30 and 7 a.m.
  3. The term hour is figurative.
  4. I have dispensed with exegesis.
  5. Eisegesis is the way of poets.
  6. I endorse myself as the patron saint of eisegesis.
  7. The golden hour is burnished thus because:
    • 7.1. the world is quiet.
    • 7.2. It does not yet bite.
    • 7.3. Here we may ignore each other’s presence.
    • 7.4. I dispense with pretence.
  8. There are no mirrors in the golden hour.
  9. There are no lists, and yes, the irony is deliberate.
  10. Here I behold the full catastrophe of my broken biology and flawed psyche, and …
  11. I long for nothing.
  12. That is the I that I am
  13. for an hour a day.

Exegesis is the interpretation of text, or the drawing out meaning based on the contexts of its creation.

Eisegesis is the insertion of one’s ideas into text.
