Confucion
 
“The People’s Republic of China has been historically hostile to the philosophy of ancient China.”
 
Yinity yangity,
Chinese Philosophy
gave us Confucius, I
Ching and the Tao.
 
Later, a culture of
Neo-Confucianists
morphed into Maoism.
No one knows hao.
 
 
Pounding Father
 
In New Bearings in English Poetry, F. R. Leavis described Ezra Pound’s Hugh Selwyn Mauberley as “quintessential autobiography.”
 
Alias filius,
Hugh Selwyn Mauberley
couldn’t conceive of his
quatrains without
 
Ezra, indulging in
autobiography,
hunched at his typewriter,
Pounding them out.
