Which cocktail do you take? I’ve had HIV for 24 years now myself, actually, was born with it. I’m not on meds yet, but may have to be soon. What part of NYC are you from?

This is good news! I was diagnosed hiv poz last june. It so happened that i was about to migrate to the U.S. with permanent resident as my petitioner. we cancelled the interview on a later time to get help from an immigration lawyer. For all we know U.S. citizen and not permanent resident has the right to sign up the waiver for people like me. Is this true? I’m hoping that this law will be published the soonest time possilble.

I believe your viewpoints to be both narrow-minded and bigoted. Would you be satisfied if we simply rounded up all those with HIV/AIDS and gave them their own island to live on? Perhaps that would make you feel “safe” from the “evils” of “diseased people” and homosexuals with their “irresponsible sexual practices”? One can contract HIV/AIDs through a variety of methods, it is not only sexually transmitted. I would also like to point out that a vast majority of HIV/AIDS sexual transmission occur between MALES and FEMALES, thereby debunking your poor attempt to further the ridiculous stigma that classifies HIV as a “gay disease”. As for your comments on a nations “rights” – I understand that your cowardly way of solving this crisis is to turn a blind eye, but I hate to break this to you: closing your eyes and ignoring it will NOT solve anything, but will only make things worse. And if there is any country that has the economic and emotional capacity to help these people, well then it must certainly be America. So yes, I am happy that this unconstitutional ban is being reversed, because it stands for everything that America is not.

And I only post your comment because I felt that my readers might enjoy the narrow-mindedness of your attempt at an argument.

I am sorry to hear, that, the ban on “HIV Positive” perspns entering the U,S, is about to be lifted,..Clearly, the presents of such persons, in this country, is NOT, a “good”, thing, as, at least, “some”, of them, will be “sexually active”, while here,..especially so those of the “homosexual” pursuasion, who, as a group, tend to be “irresponsible”, in regards to there “sexual” practices,..Indeed, isn’t being “irrisponsible”, how they got AIDS, in the first place,.? Any nation, has the right,..even the responsibility, to it’s citizens, to ban any person, who has a contageouse desease,..especially,..AIDS,…

Comment on The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock by T.S. Eliot (1919) by Edward LAMB

Governor’s Island, 1969

“Should I, after tea and cakes and ices,
Have the strength to force the moment to its crisis?…”

The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock
T.S. Eliot, (1900-1949)

The arduous, overstated virility of the ambience
Cold, hard and acrid as brass
Relentless, constant as the surrounding brackish waters
Of the deep, dark Hudson’s eternal tides…

Like a young man’s tearless, unavowed solitude
In the lone, Spartan celibacy of a hard bunk
Enveloped in sterile, rugged, anonymous sheets
And the vague odour of industrial laundry

The routine masquerade of starched white uniforms
Senseless ceremony in the brisk early morning air
Forcing a rigid, meaningless salute
Reciting the same empty phrases

Supposed to howl “Yes, Sir !” in feigned obedience
To some insignificant, masochistic Sergeant
In execution of some purely capricious “order”
The sole purpose of which is your humiliation

Forming straight, disciplined monotonous lines
Herded like cattle towards
Soulless, saltpetre meals slopped into stainless steel vessels
In an atmosphere of utter boredom…

Paradoxically, across the Bay, rose Manhattan Island
The awesome Apple and her Civilisation and… Freedom
Reflecting, at night, her sparkling lights on the water
Lady Liberty out there holding her torch to no one’s edification

On a smuggled radio in the barracks
The news related the Woodstock Festival
Hard Rock Music and Sex and Drugs
Youngsters making Love and not War

And protest movements on dozens of campuses
Resistors burning their draft cards in the streets
Young women’s rights protesters reclaiming abortion
Publicly emancipating themselves of their now superfluous bras…

Tonight, he would make a break for it
Somehow sneak onto the ferryboat
Leap off on the other side
Or perish in the icy waves of the Hudson…
