Wolves Among the Lambs

There are those engaged in pedagogy To facilitate the drip... drip... drip Of poison to accost a child's ear. Maneuvering with glee and juicy decadence... Sequestering all they say and hear. Filled with righteous indignation And a blind sanctification to their cause. They pervert both judge and jury... Twisting truth with sainted claws. Under a veil of woeful ignorance... They molest and kink impeccant minds. When pressed to divulge their scribblings... They graciously decline. 'You've not the right!' They blindly scream. 'Your fear and doubt is blatantly absurd. We are gentle shepherds of our flock... But you'll just have to take our word.' For far too long we've abdicated our Responsibility to these purveyors of disruption. As they've repackaged long failed ideologies... Fattening our children for destruction. Nothing good comes from darkness Except mushrooms and a willingness to deceive. And proselytizing children like some fungi... Seems unnecessarily naive. These predators, race-baiters and gangsters Are akin to an unruly cockroach in the night. They happily go about their sordid business Till someone dares to shine a light. If you refuse to rise and shine that light... Then we be back where this began. But there are still foxes in the chicken-coop... There be wolves among the lambs. The End *Follow my cartoon at Webtoon Bob's your uncle *Pedagogy: -the principles and methods of instruction. -the activities of teaching.

Hello David ... children are the most vulnerable in society and possibly easiest to convince by the predators who when exposed should be named and shamed - very frightening indeed David - Lindsay

A great creation that exposes the darkness in the evil hearts of some, my friend. Such vile predation and embracement of evil is to be soundly condemned and should be punished in the extremist form by law, imho. Yet we see instead such evil is more and more embraced in this modern world. A fav. God bless.

There's a campaign afoot to cancel Toyota because they've given money to the Republicans. Toyota caved to the mob of course. If Conservatives don't start fighting back... it's all over. Have a great day.

I'm not sure if the last stanza helps or hurts the poem. But to those who know their history... the things we see today are frightening. My son and I hope to be in the same re-education camp together. That my be the best outcome. Have a great day my friend.

The vidoes of teachers in the classroom I have seen over the last two tears chills my soul. Thank God for iphones. This has to stop.
