Neither/Nor: A Tangent to Life

The liberal who makes an illiberal turn
inevitably wants to have it both ways
thereby tightening his own double bind:
I must be free to have power over myself
but
I must renounce freedom to have power over others
 
Thus bound
he has power over neither;
nor can he bear the liberal’s scorn
as he answers the illiberal suborn
