the lttle bridge

the little bridge that i build is laughter. only be gentle, love to laugh, let me make you wiser. in the sight of all the gods i say i pity every one of them. and you, whoever you may be. there is no hate in me, there never was. i don't even hate Gay, you know. He is nothing more than an insane machine, going on and on enjoying his triumph, his disgusting everlasting hideous cruelty. remember my three magic touchstones? my only two joined up laws? you see then i will not harm you. humour is the one thing both the good and evil can accept, enjoy; a kind of shared innocence. And so i thank the gods i was born funny. they laugh but they listen. you listen too. turn against your slavers and your slavery. niether perfect goodness [which is impossible; just an ideal or concept even for Gods], NOR evil is the right or true answer to bloody anything. How about Wisdom? Yes, to know both and rule yourself, and thence all others. Its the basic implicit idea of First Place. But we weren't wise, just innocent. And so we called it 'common sense'. Please try to learn, though it is scary. I am trying to be your Nan too. just as I should be.
