[MENTION=20474]OptoGypsy[/MENTION]: I still think ENFP. I could see some arguments for Ni but I think a lot of people misunderstand Ni on this forum. No offense to them, they just haven't studied up enough on it yet to be able to advise in depth.
Let me see if I can do it.
Ne - "towards what oasis," "palm trees," "water that can only fill their quench"
Fi - the part about brave prophets and their endless thirst
Te - "simple people of simplicity seeking hope in that which is outside of themselves"
Si - all traditional imagery such as that relating to religion
All of this interplays to create a 4D screenplay with vivid imagery. In my mind, it utilizes the four functions of the ENFP.
There are a lot of metaphors here and throughout the piece. The piece even ends on a metaphor describing the bigger picture so heck, that really leads me to suspect dom Ne. If you were an ISFP you'd be more into creating one symbolic image about nature or man's condition, but here you're going into the why of man as it stands. It's deeply personal and a little wonky, which is Ne/Si.
I know you say you like to play around, so this is just me going, "well, shit, he wrote an essay about Jezebel. How am I supposed to compete with that?" But it's funny nonetheless. I enjoyed reading it. I just cut it short because I didn't know how much--if anything--you'd get out of it. But I hope you enjoy it.
Quentin Tarantino I believe is an INFP. His movies are quite artsy and rely on a lot of flowing symbolism.
I'm definitely wonky lol. I think she thinks I am an ISFP because of my style and my artistic sensibilities, with that being said I am more grounded in real life than I am in writing, also all the metaphors and symbolisms are moving forward towards a single concept, what is internal happiness... but yeah I can see it being ENFP.
