Again Camille Paglia, will you marry me?

"What you have described is the Orc-Urizen cycle, a pattern identified by the great Romantic poet and visionary artist William Blake after the French revolution. Blake saw every radical impulse toward freedom eventually ossifying and turning back on itself in a new oppression and tyranny. You are quite right to detect adolescent naiveté in many demands of white middle-class young people in the 1960s. We had been overprotected by our parents, who had suffered Depression and war for most of their lives and were determined to give us something better. Unfortunately, the result of this well-intended paternalism was a cultural banality and stifling conformism that the '60s tried to destroy by any means necessary. But it is still puzzling why that dissident generation so enamored of freedom would have drifted toward today's speech codes, thought control and ideological intolerance."

O Camille, Camille, my razor-tongued Italiana
my femme-de-lettres, how sharp thy mind
thy string of thoughts, fierce and terse
speak what tomes attempt with ten-fold in verse
Alas another woman be thy choice
Will thou not chance a stricken suitor's voice?
What rough tempest must I sail,
what iced peak must I scale,
what foul horde must I fight,
to win thy star most brightest in the night
Why o why o'er Camille must I obsess,
my unattainable Ayn Randian heroine, my Camille.
