THE NEW CRITERION

From its whining pages oozes the expectation
its readers will share its' writers outrage
that opposing Fascism should be seen
as a virtue in an author, and supporting
Fascism a defect.

Regurgitating that if an author opposed
or opposes Fascism, that must be
the sole reason why their work is praised,
and if an author supports or supported
Fascism, that must be the sole reason
for all criticism towards their work -
that's Criterion Gospel, old and New.

You know the people who write this stuff
think they would look cool in a black
uniform, with a Swastika armband
on their sleeve, talking with
Eliot about the latest
news from Berlin.
