A WARNING TO THE MAN

My friend! Listen now to every word, deed and action spoken, for we walk among traitors and traitors, forced to walk, and what you must refuse tomorrow - perhaps - will be your shame on the gallows. You will stand mocked, defeated, ashamed, before your former Bosses, your powerful, slavish Directors, like scapegoats or scoundrels.

If you do not have to, you must not, like a superfluous colonel, curve your own roadblock in the way of your own Fate and your own path; let everything go its own way, let all the cogs turn! For once you show your other mask-face to the already hypocritical-false World - be careful - you may be humiliated, mocked, just as you were in your toddling pumpkin-head days again. Thy life is threatened by the threatening, fake word, now as meaningless as honour, or a handshake given only once, as a prelude to unconditional trust.

It is no longer possible that till the last minutes the biting, sobbing choke should not be confessed at least to thyself. Never let it be said that those who once trampled you in the mud because you thought differently about the chain of connections now want to offer you a compromising peace offering with great grace. Now, in shame, seldom, if the present, and man and beast in it, blush; man tramples on man!

Hair! Verily, verily! This is how we have been living for several decades now, and while in Western Europe things may be a little more dynamic, because if something is thought up there it is still functional, creative and effective - in our country everything is a fallow, decaying, toxic decay, where everyone is scraping out his own wages, profits and grave!
