On Murder, a Monday Morning Ramble |

The wolf relies on scent and a sharp eye – he knows nothing save the taste of blood, the flesh that fills his gut. He has no gods to whisper hints of something more. We are the blessed beings of thought; we imprint our children with our deeds – creating small armies of us. We can follow what we’re taught, speak safely in the vernacular, and nod in the comfort of other voices - acquiescence that murder can be just. We can bend words into tiny boats to float in the gutter of promoted thought or, we can choose to give wings to new ideas, send paper planes into the breeze, against the current – even if we fly alone. © 2003 Core [This message has been edited by Corinne (07-14-2003 06:35 PM).] |
