Sloganeering in a Field of Straw Men

In the age of slogan veneration

And the vortex of misinformation,

Can you hear that hammer?

It's meant for the penultimate nail

In the coffin of nuance.

 

There's a bumper sticker serenade

Spreading and puncturing

The ear drums of the susceptible,

But perhaps La Déesse Raison

Can still swoop in ex machina?

I think reason is overrated. There are so many types of intelligence. And even the human qualities that don't necessarily classify as intelligences...

If poetry is my fetish, is that (un)reasonable?

Works better than pornography!

WAYYYYY BETTTTER
