This dos apply to any on The Bay.


THEN NOW AND COMEING

It's kinder sad , and rather frightening

When no one listens , or reads the runes

See's only a fool , spouting out words

What is to be dun?

Just carry on spouting

At least we who write of what is coming

Have the satisfaction of uttering our words

We many be shouting in to the wind

Maybe just maybe some one will catch our words

sometimes we have to learn the hard way. again and again and again and again.

sadly, no one seems to hear the words that are being shouted into the wind. maybe if we turn around (or just try using the telephone)?

"First they came for the communists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the socialists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me." (Martin Niemoller)

Not true . . . you're the one left to speak out.

'They' said that the end of the world was coming. Just weeks ago.

Sometimes we can learn from what has occurred in the past, the injustices don't necessarily have to re-occur.

Sometimes 'they' don't listen because the spouters /are/ saying foolish things.

We who write are unique in a world of TV couch potatoes. Keep the words flowing Ken, your candle against the darkness of reality TV.

I'm confident that someone will catch them. And, yes, at least there's the satisfaction of release. :)
