PROEM & POEM No. 18 - Daftly Mob Deftly Robbed
---
The deft plays and preys the daft, of course the latter trumpets and decrees on behalf of the former. Plainly, the daftly mob are deftly robbed, whether by night’s darkest hour or broadest of daylight. Paradoxically often, the theft is so well disguised by lofty orations, eliciting charitable sentiments among unsuspecting victims. More disturbing is the deviant transformation of secretive covetousness to outspoken entitlements even rights while shaming intended victims as selfish and greedy.
Indeed, public slander and personal injury are likely, at times imminent, when logically defending the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent on all matters intimate, private, philosophical, spiritual/theological, public, social, political, consequently, ethical. The biblical prophet Isaiah was quite correct to critically lament, “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”

O to mammalian souls, roaming familiarly half-whole
Half-engaged, hastily enraged, easily quickened to extol
Murder as necessity, theft as charity, slavery as duty
And more, as lies recited soon appeal as truth’s beauty
Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
