History but do we listen. For the last month or so I have been back to the 'Highland Clearances' this particular piece was called 'Ross Women' pure evil just so fucking awful. They and their families lived in and around 'Strathcarron' this caught my eye as a young man I worked in this area of 'Scotland at 'Loch Kishorn' but I digress. The evil that drove these awful venal bastards to clear families old, young, men, women, babies off the lands of their ancestors for nothing but fucking money, is doing the same today.
But the same evil bastards have resorted to straight forward genocide.
Evil has been learning from the past but now they dont want bits of land they want the world. Evil said follow the science take the jab take the poison and save 'our world' but to do that you must all die. Only pure evil working through its demons could do this. 'They' must be demons this is so insidious no human could think it up.
The title comes from a poem by 'Emily Dickinson'. That I got from an album called 'The Letting Go' by Will Oldman known as 'Bonnie Prince Billy'
After great pain, a formal feeling comes –
BY EMILY DICKINSON
After great pain, a formal feeling comes –
The Nerves sit ceremonious, like Tombs –
The stiff Heart questions ‘was it He, that bore,’
And ‘Yesterday, or Centuries before’?
The Feet, mechanical, go round –
A Wooden way
Of Ground, or Air, or Ought –
Regardless grown,
A Quartz contentment, like a stone –
This is the Hour of Lead –
Remembered, if outlived,
As Freezing persons, recollect the Snow –
First – Chill – then Stupor – then the letting go – |
