Michael Rosen Meets Michael Rosen

We’re going to have an essay crisis.

We’re going to write a big one.

What a beautiful day!

We’re not scared.

 

Uh-oh!

An intellectual point about Hegel’s dialectical method!

A compex intellectual point about Hegel’s dialectical method!

 

We can’t go over it.

We can’t go under it.

We’ll have to go through it!

… Etc …

Found this sribbled in the margin of some lecture notes I’d been making on (the apparenly riveting topic of) social mobility:

There once was a fellow called Marx
Whose name didn’t rhyme with anything helpful.
Bark.

… They’ll make a poet laureat of me yet…
