Signs of Contradiction

The Name (Same) Différance

Sauf le nom

 


I said:

"DarkSide is a meme,

and nothing

more."

She said, "I have no.clue

what you meme........

I mean, mean,

but I fear........"

When I interrupted:

"The phenomenon (only) needs

a name,

you see,

a name you see,

"a terrifying and monstrous

mask,

in order to inscribe itself on the

hearts

of humanity,

                   humanity,

                                  humanity."

That is,


you name it, we've got it........

("So come on down to Fred's Giant Used Suckers' Emporium!")

OTHERWISE, we end up with

différance,

which is unbearable

(because entropic).

Capice?"

And we said all of that to say

this,

and we quote (of course):

"Sauf le nom."

To be nameless is the only way

to be.

And, after all, aren't we just

pretending

we're only on TV

now?

           now?

                       now?

In the realm of faceless names?
