FIRE AND STRAW


  1. “They” will say they do no wrong, but as the great philosopher, Marshall McLuhan said—the medium is the message, and I perceive in the poem that the medium and message is a grievous falsehood! Keep the fire burning, Satish; few speak so fervently and eloquently on this continuing tragedy as you do.- oxygonJuly 21st, 2010 at 1:21 pm
    And I could add, Satish, that the message is a falsehood, but the medium—the essence—is death, and that may sound like a contradiction of McLuhan’s premise, but contradiction is an inexorable part of the fabric of the present order in the world! Your poetry addresses this “ordered” chaos in a profoundly passionate way.- oxygonJuly 21st, 2010 at 1:28 pm
