Now you’ve done it. Cato the Elder is going to complain we don’t know any other poems by Yeats.

Indeed. Poor Yeats.

We had a student newspaper in high school called “The Rough Beast”. It was shut down for being too, umm, rough-tongued.

Every half-assed prognosticator, doomsayer, threat-seer, end-times smeller and amateur vaticinator quotes that damned poem as if nothing more foreboding could possibly be conceived. Try any prophetic book in the Bible, folks.

Next time I find the time to engage in some automatic writing, I’m going to ask Willie Butler what he thinks of it all. I bet he wishes he’d never written it.
