Swift has sailed into his rest;
Savage indignation there
Cannot lacerate his breast.
Imitate him if you dare,
World-besotted traveller; he
Served human liberty.

—William Butler Yeats, Swift's Epitaph

We must all stand for what is right, no matter what fierce indignation the world piles upon us.

I like Yeats.  Keats, also.

My A Level English teacher said my prose style was on a par with James Joyce.  Wow, I thought.

Then I looked his prose style up:

"Stream of consciousness is a literary method of representing the flow of a character's thoughts and sense impressions "usually in an unpunctuated or disjointed form of interior monologue".

The utter b@stard....

But who/what determines what’s right?

I’ll just throw in Alan Turing as an example.

I like Edgar Allen Poe.
But I guess that's a topic for another thread.

T. S. Eliot's The Wasteland for me.

I digress also....

170 pages in and interfering with law enforcement is still a thing.

Apparently the left thinks they are above the law, because interfering with law enforcement is AGAINST the law!
