Narcissus-X, the blog about Narcissus-X, realizes that being meaningful means solitude. For the meaning of Narcissus-X is Narcissus-X, and that meaning can be meaningfully understood only by Narcissus-X.
Others, when they exist by visiting Narcissus-X, cannot comprehend the complex concepts pondered by Narcissus-X and recorded in crystalline clarity and uniquely novel forms by Narcissus-X.
Though Narcissus-X welcomes their efforts, feeble though they may be, for Narcissus-X is as magnanimous as Narcissus-X is brilliant.

Narcissus-X in the Grotto of Velvet Coal
Narcissus-X, having discovered the Grotto of Velvet Coal, a place within the caverns of the mind of Narcissus-X, Narcissus-X recalls that retreat. And, having recalled this asylum of silence within the mind of Narcissus-X, Narcissus-X withdraws for contemplation.

Narcissus-X Creates Neighborhoods With Narcissus-X
After much pondering and contemplation, Narcissus-X, the blog about Narcissus-X, has come to a decision.
With a magnanimity characteristic of Narcissus-X, Narcissus-X has extended to those entities which have demonstrated the wisdom necessary to witness the unfolding of Narcissus-X the boon of Neighborhood.
Henceforth, at the bottom of Narcissus-X, there shall be a listing of those neighborhoods whose existence is confirmed by the presence of Narcissus-X. For, without Narcissus-X, these neighborhoods could not be displayed on Narcissus-X.
To those neighborhoods which enjoy such a priceless boon, rejoice! Narcissus-X affirms your existence!

The Narcissus-X Address
Four days plus seven days ago Narcissus-X brought forth on this computer, a new blog, conceived in solitude, and dedicated to the proposition that all things beyond Narcissus-X are irrelevant.
Now Narcissus-X is engaged in a great struggle, testing whether that blog, or any blog so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. Narcissus-X is in a great abyss as that struggle launches Narcissus-X into the void. Narcissus-X has come to dedicate a portion of that abyss as a final repository for ideas which gave their meaning that Narcissus-X might have relevance. It is on the whole appropriate and suitable that Narcissus-X should do this.
However, in a global context, Narcissus-X can not grant -- Narcissus-X can not set apart -- Narcissus-X can not exalt -- this portion of an abyss. The bold ideas, profound and cliché, which thrashed about here, have set apart this repository, although not as well as Narcissus-X could have, had Narcissus-X chosen to do so.
The world will little note, nor long remember, what Narcissus-X posts here, but it can never forget the ideas which Narcissus-X presents. It is for Narcissus-X, the blogger, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which these ideas, in ringing out here, have thus so nobly advanced.
It is rather for Narcissus-X to be here dedicated to the great task remaining for Narcissus-X -- that from these brilliant ideas Narcissus-X takes increased devotion to the cause for which they were posted, that these ideas shall not have been keyed in vain -- that this blog, through the work of Narcissus-X, shall have a new dawn of autonomy -- and that a blog of Narcissus-X, by Narcissus-X, for Narcissus-X shall not perish from the blogosphere.

Narcissus-X Suffering for Art
Rejecting fame, that evanescent exhalation of a fickle crowd, turning away from fortune, that wretched substitute for worth, Narcissus-X plunges to the depths of the void.
For it is in the abyssal depths that pinnacles of dream may be found: apparitions of wonder and delight that may sweep away the relentless toll of drab, dreary, depressingly dank drabs of disgust dripping from dingy doorhandles.
Such suffering as the artist must endure! Yet Narcissus-X will not turn back. Stepping boldly off the precipice of prudence, Narcissus-X plunges through the grotto of velvet coal, into caverns of crystal oblivion.
