Engli$h $tudies - a graphic manipulation & anti-poem by T Newfields
Liao: In so many ways, self and anti-self exist within each person.
Melissa: (scratching her head) Huh? What's that mean?
Liao: This poem was written by a English teacher in Asia, yet in no uncertain terms it parodies the whole concept of foreign language instruction.
Satoru: Really? I think it simply asks students to examine their motives.
Melissa: Well, it also points out how English is a facet of cultural imperialism.
Tim: (shaking his head) Argh! Gim'me a break!
