POESY COURTESY OF BAD RACHEL….SEE NOTE
http://badrachel.blogspot.com/
This lovely verse was occasioned the caterwauling tears of Leon Wieseltier but it evokes all those rats who sob”more in sorrow than in anger” so selectively about the world’s inequities….
On Wieseltierian tears
Oh blithersome couturier of wordifactious spewage,
Your loathsome predilection for effluxicating brewage
Has found its proper gallery in hurricanus sewage.
Oh odious splendiferatious tonguer of all piety,
Ambassador-at-very-large for platitudiniety,
Your prosody’s ontology’s all Sartric nullibiety.
It’s thus we say, with due respect, and many years’ assizing:
Oh, literary colporteur, the words of your devising
Appear to land upon the page without palpable revising.
