Timothy Spearman writes


Truth being an endangered species, surrounded by the ubiquitous presence of Big Brother’s operatives, from Mockingbird corporate media moles, transmitting and parroting each other’s mimicked bird songs in the counterfeit strains of fake news purveyors to charlatan birds of a feather banding together with bandwagon arguments directed against the authors of liberation. Truth must now marshal itself in a dream coat of many colours in order to drown out the deafeningly loud monochrome of fascist group think, the painted whore of falsehood masquerading as the blushing bride truth under the banner of political correctness. Only then can truth emerge victorious from the famine descending upon the land, so that seven ears of ripe corn might devour seven ears of withered corn, that the grain silos might be filled once again with a grain of truth, bursting to capacity with an enlightened message for the masses, so stark in its reality and so blinding in its clarity that it might root out the twin serpents of ignorance and vice and banish them from the lands of integrity, veracity, legitimacy and authenticity. Hear ye, hear ye.

  1. Geoffrey Chaucer wrote the 700-line "Parlement of Foules" perhaps ca. 1382. Nature convenes a parliament where birds will choose their mates. Three tercels (male eagles) seek to mate with a formel (female eagle), but Nature allows the formel to delay the decision.
