    Dismissing him as disingenuous as opposed to what Pound stood for would
be more appropriate. Discussion on Pound is preferable.
    Should we continue to look for "a little light, like a  rushlight to
lead back to splendour." -Canto CXVI or else anticipate that the myth of
progress will put out all our lights in time until we find ourselves living
in the horror of a constantly violent world of machines and evil toys?

"a little light
            in great darkness-" -Canto CXVI

    How about the Cantos as "palimpsest" records of Tradition that have
survived the historical blackout of the usurious occult and serve as these
little rushlights to guide our way out of this teetering Inferno?

"A war on truth requires weapons of mass deception." -on a sign at the
London demonstration
