Eterno retorno

Nietzsche estaba en lo cierto cuando teorizó sobre el concepto del eterno retorno. Basta con ver de vuelta al incombustible (y womanizer) Álvarez Cascos, el del interés general, cuyo mayor logro como ministro de Transportes fue dejar bloqueados tres distritos en Madrid, con una fácil comunicación con el centro de Madrid hasta que él tuvo la brillante ocurrencia de cerrar el acceso para potenciar su proyecto de las autopistas de peaje. Precisamente apelando a ese mismo interés general, reproduzco un extracto del diáologo entre el juez que lo juzgaba y el poeta ruso Joseph Brodsky, a quien entre otras lindezas el aperturista Krushchev llamó maricón.
  
JUDGE: Tell the court why in between jobs you didn’t work and led a parasitic life style?
BRODSKY: I worked in between jobs. I did what I do now: I wrote poems.
JUDGE: You wrote your so-called poems? And what was useful about your frequent job changes?
BRODSKY: I began working when I was 15 years old. Everything was interesting to me. I changed jobs because I wanted to learn more about life, about people.
JUDGE: What did you do for your motherland?
BRODSKY: I wrote poems. That is my work. I am convinced. . . . I believe that what I wrote will be useful to people not only now but in future generations.
JUDGE: So you think your so-called poems are good for people?
BRODSKY: Why do you say of the poems that they are “so-called”?
JUDGE: We say that because we don’t have any other idea about them.
