I am not a part of the ‘Conspiracy Of Silence’, though I will not be “naming names” in this post.
I am going to take a brief break from political malfeasance, into the darker recesses of family, and society.
These are incredibly, dark, and, sometimes, unenlightened times. The oppression and the deaths of innocent people often gets over romanticized through our culture and the narratives that get generated.. This song is dedicated to the heartless, callous asshole who assaulted a lover and friend of mine 34 years ago. Shame and disgrace on the evil patriarchal family dynamics that supports this kind of misogyny. The children of this villain share the load, to the extent that they continue to support the brute who coordinated the attack. And, off and on, I am still in connection with parts of this dysfunctional, disfigured family.
In addition, there are several powerful revelations that have come into the awareness of our family and friends as of late, with the death of key family members, and the unearthing of their horrible secrets.. Those living, and dead, perpetrators of these crimes often claimed to be a “Christian”. Our so-called “religious” and social norms, and parts of our families, are derived from a very dark culture, indeed.
There are parts of our culture and its spiritually disfigured consciousness that must die, so that the rest of our families, and our Earth, may survive, and heal.
And the family members, both present and past, that need to read this, and to bring healing to themselves and to the others that they have harmed, will never acknowledge this.
For our world to change, we all must hold ourselves, and each other, accountable to higher, life affirming and loving standards,
I have written entire books addressing these issues. I never wanted to be an expert in these difficult social issues.
