Poison for the Heart

 

 

Writing / Reading   9 / 9

Quiet words

The words of the wise are whispers - to one another and no-one else! They flutter from one sagely heart to another, century to century, as if in joyous ignorance of the clamouring chatter of the masses.

Occasionally though, the masses decide to look up - and they catch sight of one of these ghosts. They prepare the ropes and hooks, and catch hold of its sweet flutterings. They deludedly try and hoist themselves off the ground - but alas, they are much too heavy for the task, and succeed only in dragging down our heavenly friend. Then, as if in disgust or boredom, the masses enjoy crushing the life out of him - to extinction.

 

Copies of this

Many years ago, before the printing press, readers used to make copies of valuable books, so others might benefit from the wisdom contained within them. Think how many would benefit if you were to make a copy of this book! Better still, make a hundred copies.
