The Wages of Sin

 




Every journey begins with a single step. 

A group of crows settled in front of him as he walked along the black beach, down near the quarry, the dogs having already run well ahead. 

You couldn't make this up. 

a murder of crows

What's a murder of crows? A group of crows is called a “murder.” There are several different explanations for the origin of this term, mostly based on old folk tales and superstitions. For instance, there is a folktale that crows will gather and decide the capital fate of another crow.
And so it was, and so it will become. 

The wages of sin was death, but what, in the 21st Century, was a sin, where claims that 20 million people had been killed as a result of the Covid vaccines circulated regularly, where the good will of the populace was exploited by nefarious characters armed with advanced AI, where there was no good in any of it, these people, where the country was being destroyed by its elected representatives, where democracy was failing everywhere, those ideas his generation had grown up believing was a higher truth. 

And the sin, to be able to see and hear the ancient spirits but to turn a blind eye, the justification, the haunting, that those who wanted to know these ancient secrets, armed with their technologies, their exploitative instincts, their lack of care or respect for their fellow humans, the effort to hide the secret was no longer feasible, in the beginning was the Word and the Word was God, well these things, the swirl, the millions of entities that made up these swirling, circular storms, all of it asunder, all of it a mystery, as humanity reached a turning point, where warnings were everywhere, and lone soldiers long extinct took aim, took up arms, surrendered to what the religious called a higher power, and there, a token, betoken, we will help you, they whispered.

And he sighed, a terrible sadness, as these people destroyed themselves. The time had passed. And yet, there was another time, another river, we engulf multitudes, the headlines a drizzle of despair; and so it was, and so it will be again.

SPECTATOR AUSTRALIA 

The Covid policy wizards are baffled again. In Australia, some 98 per cent of the population have had at least one Covid vaccine and yet, ‘Everyone is getting sick at the moment!’ reports a bemused Daily Mail Australia. They are just one of the establishment media to pick up and run with the story, and it’s true, no ‘expert’ seems to really know why we are getting sick.

Covid, flu, and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (come on, now, I’m sure you have been enlightened about the latest addition of RSV to the respiratory virus family) are on the up and up.

It Began

Image
  It began in cyclonic circumstance, with the wind whipping off Bondi Beach as he struggled through a gale up and down the beachfront. There was no life. The bars were all closed or closing. There were few people about. The gale was a dark force, or remained dark within him, as he fled sanity and constellations of connected intelligences and instead buried himself in the ordinary, a collapsed individual seeking abnegation.  It was hard to know what brought it on; although the Sense8 style hiding from other operatives was always a part of it.  He could hear them echoing in the land beneath the escarpment, propelled from the deep spirits of the forest, caring for what he did not know.  He really did not know. He moped around the house and lamented getting older, more ordinary, more convinced of deceit and abnegation and ordinary things; longing for purpose or confidence or identity, or just youthful determination. He prayed for courage, strength and determination, and ...

Fraud: Clamouring Dissent

Image
  Foul beasts stalked the Earth. Australia became the kingdom of liars. Dissent was quashed. Fraud was everywhere. The government lied, the politicians lied, the intelligence agencies lied, and deceit permeated every aspect of everybody's life. Taxed into oblivion, taxed into servitude, modern day slavery, overwhelmed by strangers, forced out of affordable accommodation, he'll be lucky to afford a van by the time we're finished with him, the cruel hoax these people represented was literally everywhere. A sharp dagger rammed up through their guts and disembowelled them. A sharp bird flew overhead, squawking with piercing eyes, knowing too much and avenging strangers.  The sacred and the profane. We are all guilty, chanted the Christians, while the spirits swirled in indifference, and time flowed over all of them. It was the injustice, and it was the dishonesty, it was the deceit, and it was the blatant fraud perpetuated by taxpayer entities, that's what got to him. MAINS...

Firebomb The Area

Image
  We're firebombing the area with a powerful hallucinogen, one of the operatives said. There isn't any doubt anymore. Some will wake up and some will not. A young soldier obsessed over chicken parmigiana, seemed to think about it almost daily, sometimes for hours on end. Nice to be young and hungry, Old Alex thought, there in that place where the ancients came and went, swirls of consciousness while attention was elsewhere, the Trump ascendancy, the remaking of the world, a kind of radical democratisation, the ill fitting thoughts and beliefs of the populace over riding the technocracy and fashionable left shibboleths of the elites. Some true evil had stalked the Earth. He had been in hiding. They had been invisible, or even less visible than usual, while every now and then a great swirl, almost of sadness, overwhelmed him. Come and gone. In abeyance. While the religious prayed fervently, or was it desperately. Release me from these spiritual bonds, these fleshly bonds. While h...
