Of unknown origin, tough
To translate in the event,
Polemic, that is, not war
Of course. Every language knows
What war is, or they do now.
All art is political,
Goes one polemic, but not
All art is polemical.
Thus, approving reviewers
Write things like, political,
Yes, but not a polemic.
A polemic could reverse
That claim and say that all art
Is polemical, but not
All art is political.
In their heart of hearts, all arts
Argue disputatiously,
But not all carry a torch
For this or that argument
Wed to political force.
In their heart of hearts, all arts
Take exception to something,
But not all arts are party.
