Channeling Rieff channeling Sontag
Theories of cultures anew
We have become the prophets of anti-culture
Of new paradigms regarding morality
Third culture social radicalism
And the gospel of self-fulfillment
As the clerisy we decree
[Fundamentalist pessimism
Versus utopian fantasy] revolutions
When, for the intelligentsia
Everything is the battle of ideas
With futures at stake
