Papa, Daddy, Uncle, Dear Old Man:
what is it about dictators that we
coddle them with terms of affection?
The lion will slaughter, and even eat,
cubs of his rivals. No subordinate

Why do we revere lions,
laugh at hyaenas? What is it about the clenched fist,
the conical tower, church

of whose honorary doctorates gives
him: Uncle, Dear Old Man: an awkward gait. -
