From Echoes

Echoing laughter at a comedy does not speak of a relief from the tragedy

For such lighter moments are creative spins to make tragic more palatable

Sincere truth narrated in a dull language is too strong a potion to drink comfortably

One seeks to be cured with laughter and cushion the pain with soft pillows of comedy

Poetics is considered a defect if it defects from the norm and fails with haughty metaphors

Pouring rich honey to sweeten the cynicism is a futile experience

Criticisms for both- comedy and tragedy, does not justify the critical conclusions

Machinations begin not over differences of ideologies,

Failing to comprehend the fine difference between comic and tragic is the cause
