I was thinking the same thing Galleh. Something is wrong with this Dramane!!! Ky here's your man. Mining mining tafal, tanyaa lebeh labanna. He's lucky it was Galleh. If it were me, I'd take him outta his friggin private myself.
As for a private reply, I think I gave you just that by concealing your identity from my response. You identified yourself on the L which is fine by me.

Well Muhammad, I am not at all offended. I cannot afford to be offended by what people write about me or my writings. As I said, I am happy that you inspired me to share my interpretation of the poem with our members because there might have been some of us who perhaps wished me to do so without saying so. Of course, every poem is amenable to any number of interpretations and it is perfectly okay to interpret the poem according to your understanding of it. So, no worries at all. As for a private reply, I think I gave you just that by concealing your identity from my response. You identified yourself on the L which is fine by me.

Maybe I did not understand the poem. and I was merely interpreting it in the way I see it. Off course I do not want to tell what I thought it was but as a hint my religious instinct push me to write to you privately. If offended my apologies. I would have preferred a private reply.

Dear Brother,
Thank you for your feedback on my small poem "Unnecessary Quacks". Since there is nothing objectionable about the private comment you kindly sent me, I beg to share it and my response to it on the Post and L for the benefit of our members while keeping your identity as private as you wished it. I am thankful because your feedback offers me an opportunity to interpret for once, my poem for our readers. Thank you.
Your email reads:
"Baba, I have no right to ask you to interpret your poem but I would add that it is not thought to be evil but it is evil beyond reproach"
My first response, Brother, is that I think we might perhaps be talking about a different it because the it of my poem is actually not evil. It is just thought to be evil which, it is suggested, is the fate of anything or anyone at all in this world. That, in any case, is the suggestion I make in this small poem. I might as well be very wrong.
The poem actually describes a real life scene: A goat walks briskly towards a flock of crows feeding on the ground. The crows fly away with cautious quacks "thinking" that the goat was some evil thing out to get them. A goat, of course, cannot be evil. But it cannot help being "thought" evil, just like everything and, I suggest, everyone else.
But I know I might as well be very wrong. I only hope the poem itself makes interesting reading.
Again, thanks for the feedback Brother. Much appreciated.
Baba
