Some of the good people are fond of quoting Theodor W. Adorno :
"To write poetry after Auschwitz is barbarism"
Praise the Lord that Chidi is a poet and not a barbarian
(Gloria in excelsis seems to take offence when a man praises
Kama's bottom.This is all I want to ask her : So when a man
Praises a woman's curvaceous blessings all you can say is
"Stop right there! If this isn't toxic misogyny, I don't know what is."?
So a man is not supposed to praise a woman's bottom? It's not
Allowed? Is it another example of the uses and misuses of poetry -
including this kind of praise poetry:
"An hundred years should go to praise
Thine eyes, and on thy forehead gaze;
Two hundred to adore each breast,
But thirty thousand to the rest;"
Chidi,
This is not love or poetry :
'This Is an Extermination': Israel's Assault on North Gaza's Last Functioning Hospital
....and we will soon pontificate on how Israel should respond.
The masterminds of these attacks would now embed themselves in densely populated areas, in schools, hospitals, refugee camps, etc, and we would soon start shouting "genocide!".
-CAO.
