Killettante

Now then, what’s this all about,
These sequences of phrases,
Some you know and some you don’t—

Is there a family here,
A history to honor,
A long-suffering people?

The son of the dictator,
With all the time in the world
To kill languages, wants you

To read through his resistance
To colonialism
And marginalization,

And why not? It’s the fashion,
And he understands fashion.
