Where are all the Toby Beckwicks in this godforsaken World? The Bellwether's, the male castrated sheep , the lone crier's of the nite. Laden with a heavy bronze bell, shackled around his neck, he's calling out to anyone who will hear .. Follow me, and I will lead you out of this fog ridden murky bog that they have driven us into. Bah, Bah, Bah, Bah...................
But nobody is listening. The wolves have driven them all into the Bottom Lands. A horrible place where where the ground is continually wet, where the heavy mist never seems to rise. Where every noise is amplified by the water laden air. It plays so well into the wolves predatory game. Anyone heard complaining will be quickly culled from the herd. therefore for the sheep:
SILENCE IS COMPLICITY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH*
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY*
and for the Wolves ........WAR is PEACE*
But how did this countryside become so overridden with Sheep? It was once a land filled with men who toiled the fields, raised and produced everything they needed to survive.
Whom along with their faithful and enterprising women raised their families in harmony with Nature and God. But all that has changed and certainly not for the better.
Today, the fleece cutters come in to shear the herd almost daily in their greedy desire to take every last strand of wool. The Ewes, the female sheep have been taught for generations now to hate the
Rams for reasons that they themselves cannot even remember. And because they alone can produce the lambs ,that are either sold off or butchered, they feel like they are being treated better at the hands of their owners . Why rock the boat when we are in stormy waters, they think.
But there are truly many Bellwether's amongst us.,..
you'll surely find John Spritzler handing out his 'Let's remove the rich from power' stickers'.
Providing his immensely knowledgable and finely articulated posts on his PDRBoston .Org website. And many other people like myself who are not afraid of being the 'Lone Voice in the Darkness' .... To lay out our cards on the table for others to view..... to wear our Hearts on our sleeve in plain sight for others to see.
And if I was present at that Town Hall meeting with Toby Beckwick, I would of stood up in solidarity with him and John Spritzler and applauded him and all he stands for.... and continued standing and applauding till the entire room joined us.... Just to show the wolves of society that even though they have taken all our 'wool'... they cannot take out Pride and Spirit from us.
Recalling the immortal words of Joe Hill before he was executed for a murder he did not commit: "don' mourn; organize."
