Fox condemns trap, not himself

 
   "Fox condemns trap, not himself"
   
   A quote from the mystic, William Blake--a mere tradesman, having died a penniless old man, but remembered forever.
   Today, the American Coyote is sometimes referred to as vermin.  He's only trying to survive, just like you.  Metaphorically, he has a mortgage, kids to send to school, a nagging wife, yet he mates for life, usually.  And if you kill a coyote; next, ten take his place.
   Forgive us, as we forgive those.  Snakes have a purpose too.  So, we don't judge, for we know--they're snakes.  It seems God has built us all for war, for that singular purpose.  One way or the other, you will die too.  Unless you're one of the 600,000 that mysteriously disappear each year around the globe. 
   Sure, most are put in frozen shoes, though it didn't work on Rasputin, the mad monk; nevertheless, some are possibly in a state of rapture, if we can say that, and we can, for we can say anything, mostly.
   So, don't get the blues.  Your sister wants your boyfriend.  Your brother gets aroused around your wife, underneath the Thanksgiving table--this is how it is.  However, there is the ascetic.  The voyaging puritan, sailing eternally on the Santa Maria, and while he may slip in the slime of others, mostly--he's an okay guy.
