Look: I am eager to learn stuff I don't know--which requires actively courting and posting smart disagreement.

But as you will understand, I don't like to post things that mischaracterize and are aimed to mislead.

Fun and fanciful, both imagery and verse. Makes me soar in the flight of a magical dance...
