Sinopsis

We all have these abruptly resurfacing images and references that pop up unannounced. For example, Treasurer Joe Hockey's musings on the poor, who don't drive very far - 'O scathful harme, condition of povertie' (Chaucer). And the rich, who are 'lifters'. I was invaded mentally by Yeats's 'Surely among a rich man's flowering lawns.' Without pain and with cigars and smirks of self-congratulation.
