FURIES 4 COVID-19

‌ FURIES 4 COVID-19  Seemingly blown out of proportion  the intensity of the screams of anger & disgust  at the position  in which this society sits: Docile Bloated Obese While mocking  Reducing the rhetoric to ridicule or worse Yet, It is necessary to understand  not the nobility  of such phrases  But the reality Behind the frustration  That Creates Indignation.  Nobility can be something besides class.  Simple to play a game  of intellectual superiority  or engage in a show of force  for what farce is this? Difficult to recognize  the impulse behind  the reality of the rhetoric: By not dismembering  its content for lack of grammatical rigor  by recognizing its passion. Foolish to use the vocabulary  of the haves  against the have nots.  Simple to tear up a piece of paper  or manifesto.  As if having destroyed  the object of one’s disdain. Forgetting for a moment.  Other realities too difficult  or impossible to name. In the nether world  Furies and spirits  would lay claim. In medieval times:  Salvation!!! the aim. Enduring life  as it reignedf amine, Pestilence, starvation death.  In ours  we think  we are beyond the elements Invincible. Our vision a limited one. For there  are other voices, Waiting to be proclaimed. Furies wait Even if for Centuries  Virtue the gods ! These are not only names.  by Daniel P Quinn (c.)
