A beautiful tyranny misnamed partnership.

Recommended Posts

The relationship

To which we are wedded

Is a beautiful tyranny

Misnamed partnership

.

Our partnership Is a partnership of unequal partners

Of unequal powers and unequal

opportunities

A partnership honeycombed

With labyrinths of genteel deception, division and exclusion.

In our partnership

One party represents

An imperial order of unprecedented sway

and intrigue

Into whose hegemonic bosom

The other is conveniently entombed.

 

In our partnership

One party is the source, centre and

symbol

Of all knowledge, civilisation and salvation

The other a mere consumer of

high culture and quips

 

We are stakeholders in a bizarre covenant

That folds enslavement

In intoxicating benevolence and grace

Our partnership is afflicted with saintly inhumanity.

In the cold mathematics of our

partnership

Our partnership is our destiny.

 

Hassan Keynan.
