#27 - A Conversation with Marianne


Listen Later

There are many overused internet keywords that could be associated with this conversation, but none of them quite seem right. So here's a poem instead:

The Ogre does what ogres can,

Deeds quite impossible for Man,
But one prize is beyond his reach:
The Ogre cannot master speech.

About a subjugated plain,

Among its desperate and slain,
The Ogre stalks with hands on hips,
While drivel gushes from his lips

- August 1968, W H Auden
