The Ritual

this is very interesting, but I am finding that such an intense overwhelming physiological and emotional response to simply being observed does not really make sense to me...what am I not seeing in your poem, Satish?
and what ritual are you referencing?
and how can simply being a nihilist result in such intense reactions?- Michael Firewalker

who is observing who ?
learned a new word" hawthorne " thanks- zorba

firewalker this is not reaction ,it is called hawthorne
two atome at play- zorba

okay, dear sorba...but please explain that some more as it is used in this particular poem?
what I have read about the hawthorne effect describes it in far more positive terms than this poem does...
this poem seems to be describing an excruciatingly negative human experience, the source/cause of which remains a mystery, and therefore the purpose of this poem is so ill-defined as to render the poem itself meaningless, as I see it anyway...- Michael Firewalker
