The Nobel laurel came like breaking news; no herald before the fact – legion debates after this storm of shock and awe, abject and indescribable disgust amongst the Klan….Refreshingly, with at once predictable and admirably studied humility, the victor feigned utter shock and complete surprise, all to the delight of hate-blinded detractors too drunk in hatred to realize their foolery, too pissed with envy to grasp their idiocy….Such studied humility, of course, was a bait deliberately rigged to expose their suited wormy flanks to a world totally stunned by such callous and senseless display of familial feud –the gall of brazen impeachment and abject incrimination of laurel presenters, curious sublimation of arrogance into morbid self-righteousness…the shocking predictability of it all, the deadly snake in the frills of one’s cloth –12/26/09By Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe, Jr.
