My
Incredible Naiveté
While
listening to a YouTube podcast
(The
Victor Davis Hanson Show), it came
to
me be way of divine revelation—it had
to
have been divine, because I could never
have
imagined it—how incredibly naïve
I
am about so many things, the blood sport
of
politics specifically; and the more I delve
into
this most ancient of human activities,
the
more idiotic I feel; and I don’t know
whether
to wail at my blind presumption,
or
thank the heavens for having the chutzpa
to
explore human nature from another
perspective
besides literature, which seeks
to
make sense of the human condition from
every
possible experience. I’m really enjoying
this
new adventure, despite my incredible
naiveté;
and I have Donald J. Trump, whose
life
story could make
the [os1] Great American,
Novel,
to thank for my new interest.
