Paul Lawrence Dunbar (1872 to 1906)

 

                                                                                                                                                       

Come when the year's first blossom blows,

Come when the summer gleams and glows,

Come with the winter's drifting snows,

And you are welcome, welcome

John Wilmot, second Earl of Rochester, (1647-1680)

 

John Wilmot, second Earl of Rochester, wrote poetry, including  "My Lord All-Pride" from which we excerpt:

...

...so lewd a scribbler... writes,

....his brain... so weak

... his starved fancy is compelled to rake

Among the excrements of others' wit,

To make a stinking meal of what they shit.

....

Quoting Wikipedia is announcing one's ignorance

 

As for example this  Wikipedia article:

Hauntology (a portmanteau of haunting and ontology) is a neologism introduced by French philosopher Jacques Derrida in his 1993 book Spectres of Marx. The concept refers to the return or persistence of elements from the past, as in the manner of a ghost.

I feel quite comfortable citing Wikipedia here, since, afterwards, I STILL don't know what the word "hauntology" means.
