Much is written these days about wise men. About foolish men. Dangerous men. Men who stir the pot for self-gratification or for brownie points on their Santa list. Men who do or did brave things and bucked the system in order to do what is right.
These men will come and go and history will gnaw at their bones like pieces of meat to be devoured and rendered back unto ashes with only the history books to remember their legacy - faithfully recorded or severely edited, depending upon the political and societal climate of the day.
So who are the men that we can look up to in times of darkness and despair?
We just had an article from Flysa expounding the virtues of Rudyard Kipling and one of our more outspoken and " maverick " posters Cinerama quoted the words that resonated with me :
I KEEP six honest serving-men
(They taught me all I knew);
Their names are What and Why and When
And How and Where and Who.
It struck a chord in me.
Long have I held men up in great awe, because of their commitment to decency and patriotism and commonsense. And before our more militant readers from the feminine side of things get upset, I use the word men to describe mankind, humanity and the knowledge that we are but one species, called MAN.
As most of you know, I am a woman. Biological. And I have the chromosomes to prove it. I write under the name of Monty because it is a derivative of my old handle from years ago when I posted as a chap called Montalbano: a Sicilian detective who always saw the right in wrong and the wrong in right.
He was also rather handsome as portrayed by the Italian actor Luca Zingaretti.
Happy Expat writes powerfully about the right in wrong and the wrong in right. Flysa teases us with his articles that tempt us to question our perception of life.
We are constantly challenged by perceptions of right, wrong and shades of grey in between.
I admire Churchill and regard him as a fine human being: a man to look for wisdom and sage pieces of verbal mastery.
Trump, a man I have followed since his emergence on that elevator back in 2015.
Monash, for whom I have only recently developed an admiration and respect.
Ned Kelly, someone I regarded as a thug and a waste of space. Until I learned " the other side of the story "
So many - Breaker Morant, and the boys who have fought according to their will and their perception of what is right and what is wrong.
It matters not who the men or women are. It matters not what name they have or what tale they tell: after all, these days, we are ruled by fact-checkers and censors who care nought for anything other than pushing a political agenda.
We can castigate, criticise and demean or we can praise, endorse or uphold these men.
But the ones that are not open to castigation, criticism, demeaning or ridicule are the six wise men.
What. When. Why. How. Where.
And old friend Who.
Help us cover our monthly costs
Those poor buggers are being silenced at present.
" What is asking " " How? When? Why? How ? Where? Who? "
and on it goes.
When I first started this website, I used those wise men as my guides. I still do, to a large extent.
They are, after all, without colour, gender, political persuasion or personal motivation.
We read much these days about Jews, Christians, Moslems, Hindus and other religious faiths.
People who identify as chipmunks, trees, or fall in love with dolls. Those who believe that a young girl from Scandanavia is the new Joan of Arc and how people bow down and worship the annihilation of their own race.
We see the silencing of free speech and the chastity belt of questioning being padlocked each day on the body of the People.
Our ancestors toppled by activists who wish to do nothing other than to dismantle history and re-create a new narrative.
So I ask myself WHAT is going on?
HOW is this being allowed to happen?
WHEN did it start?
WHERE did it start?
WHY is this happening?
HOW did we allow it to happen?
But most importantly WHO is doing it?
Of the six wise men, perhaps WHO is the most important at the present time.
WHAT is going on? Global Great Reset.
HOW is it happening? Under the guise of a fear campaign generated by a virus.
WHEN did it start? A long time ago. Today is just the end of a plan put into action decades ago,
WHY is it happening? Because the time is right. The introduction of the New World Order. The Great Reset. The destruction of sovereignty.
WHERE is it happening? Everywhere. It is a global issue.
WHO?
That, my friends, is the question.
Once we know who, we may finally understand what the six wise men are saying.
Because, without the WHAT, the WHERE, the WHY, the WHEN and HOW are irrelevant.
Our question must be WHO?
Once we know that, the what, where, why how and when will make sense.
But, of course, I am only talking about a poem.
For educational purposes.
I would never suggest that this is real. Snopes would discredit this in a heartbeat.
Anyone for a jab of " The Vaccine? " Go on... it will do you good.
