We are not interested in the meek today. The meek may inherit the earth—eventually—but only after all the good parts have all been trashed. Choose a historical figure with a closet full of skeletons, perhaps a whole field or a city block full of them, and rattle their bones. Assert your sins. Let us smell the fires of the cities you razed and hear the lamentations. This is not the day to be on the right side of history.
Check out April Bernard’s “Bloody Mary” Where else can you hear “strappado” used so perfectly? Notice how crown beheaded is crow.
