I read a post recently where it was written:
“Wendell Berry called the hidden wound—
that raw, throbbing one that never grows
skin thick enough to keep it from puncturing
and bleeding at the slightest touch.” Barack
Obama has exposed the previously hidden,
denied, buried after hangings became unpopular
reality – the wound that no longer is hidden if you
have eyes to see and ears to hear what is under all
the obstructionist behavior. This isn’t political; this
isn’t ideological; this is carotid artery, skin popping,
blood spurting hemorrhaging and sometimes it is
really good to sit back and look at the carnage,
wipe the blood of the saints from our brows,
breathe deeply and say a prayer for the America
that thinks by vote of the Supreme Court we have
arrived at the post-racial, enlightened, bias-less
utopia, Nirvana, heaven-on-earth kingdom of the
God who is still White.
Thanks, Bob. It needed to be said…eloquently.
