Yes indeed, Tzatz. Pride in every guise is sinful … and hence it is through that process of participatory-democracy … one that is open to all, where the instrumentalities-of-power may be regularly and openly tested … that there is the potential to hold this sin ‘properly in check’. For as you know by now, my view and Britain’s Jeremy Corbyn’s view are at one in this understanding – & hence my earlier words:
My appetite is humble. My wealth?
More often poor. And voice, the voice for reason
of my kin long of these shores. My history?
Redemption. Where love is more my guide
than the power and calculation
that so holds my brother’s eye
