there was a man called foucault
who was, in life, ever so bold.
he wrote of mental institutions,
and spoke of power relations.

brill!

Sepulchrave says:
and then there was derrida,
who, elton said, went too bloody far:
sources, he claimed, were but discourse;
and 'truths' from them were naught but false.

disclaimer #1: accuracy in representation of post-modernist thought has been sacrificed for poetic license.

disclaimer #2: the msn conversation was edited a little to provide grammatical consistency.

***
disclaimer #3: the more astute among you might point out that it doesn't actually rhyme. (foucault/bold, discourse/false.)
