the new poetry

My brother Mark Beer has claimed that economics are the new poetry - see entry for the Greek edition, http://sturdyblog.wordpress.com/2011/06/18/democracy-vs-mythology-the-battle-in-syntagma-square/- and whilst I enjoy the analogy the difference lies in effect. Did poetry ever bring a nation and its culture to its knees?

Here, however, is another kind of metalanguage; Rennes les Chateau,Link known here as bonkers central, has been described most elegantly as a game... see
