From Roy Meyers:

Patrick,

This one moved me, it spoke to me and I reply to the living, breathing, testimonial answer that seeks to break away from the mundane, mediocre and mediocrity that which we see, hear, feel, creeping up all around us.

There is more than hope, the cavalry is not coming, it is here and in assembly.

We are the cavalry, the true believers who don't take any guff. We the People, the real folks, the righteous folks, not petty or self-righteous, but rather the folks, the intended, who are alike to the worker bees. The very beings “who” exert an effort toward life itself. To feed on the abundance that is, those who make abundance possible. Those who contribute energy toward real substance as movers and shakers. The people who get up and pick the coffee berries, dry them in the sun then roast them on a fire they have built for that specific purpose.

Not to lay and smell the coffee brewing, no not them that need to be awakened or worse yet "WOKE." But rather, those of us who have had our parents and grandparents who without a gripe or groan arose early to take on the challenges of the day to overcome weakness and prevail against it in every way with a grin. I dare anyone to attempt to steal from them what nerves of steel and boldness of brass not elemental but alloys and allies to truth. Now grind those roasted beans and boil that H2O until the thousands of aromas release and awaken the key to genius that we labor toward. Let them, those that smell it, its alluring aromas to pay the price to taste the black liquid which motivates the writer to pick up the pen and allow it to dance on the paper. Pay oh yes pay we must, don't just merely lie there and wake up to smell the coffee, make it happen.

The sneaking snick of Evil... Let's dig a big enough hole to bury it but good. Into the Good Earth where it can be reformed, re-formed, re-framed.
