A Tale of a Frustrated Old Man & His Need

to Destroy a Shire

One upon a time there was a little man who believed he controlled his little world.  He did everything in his power to make people believe he was important, but sadly, the only one who did, was him... 

...and perhaps a few others who, like himself, had illusions of grandeur to achieve the acceptance of those who had always likely been laughed at in their past as well.

Who Are You Talking To? – The Invisible Man

He was forced to leave his eastern country because of the corruption his past had rendered helpless individuals who had mistakenly trusted him, hoping a new shire would allow him another opportunity to deceive individuals who were unaware of his sordid past.

As the years rolled by, he and his like minded followers tried desperately to obtain fame in the shire, hoping none would learn of their sad and frustrated past... 

...and...for a time, he and they, accomplished that goal, silently causing great harm to a naïve aging unsuspecting population.

They would stop at nothing to achieve their fifteen minutes of fame.  It was all they had...it was their last attempt at achieving something they had never accomplished... 

...and they knew no depth to obtain the recognition that had escaped them.

Each time others in the shire would question their motives, the only manner in which these weak hobbits would hope to fend off such criticism from those who would expose them for the frauds they were, would be to lie, cheat, and worst of all, destroy their characters. 

They had no other weapons, because insecurity had always been a part of their lives, and the word "truth" had always escaped their existence.

They had no conscience of knowing right from wrong, and because of this curse they possessed, all that mattered was the shallow victory of deception. 

But alas, it was not their fault, because they refused to recognize the mental illness and rage that existed in the leader they believed would lead them to the promised land.... 

...and the weakness of the minds who followed him, did so with silent belief that such treachery would bring them prestige in a society that, prior to the time they arrived in the shire, looked at them as outcasts, having few friends other than those who possessed similar unnatural traits.

But as the saying goes, "what goes around, comes around" and one day the little man and his fellow corrupt hobbits were exposed; they lost favor of those who formerly believed they were friends of those in the shire,  finally coming to the conclusion that they were merely pawns on their chess board to control as they so desired.

Yes, we have such an individual in our midst trying desperately to regain the control he believed he once had, but he realized that his plight was so severe that he would proceed with one last effort to convince those in the little kingdom of his worth that now were convinced of his sinister ways.

But how?

His could no longer do it by himself and his dwindling followers; he was beaten, but in that self-realization, he believed that he had but one last manner to regain his lost world...

If he was to be destroyedhe must destroy the community itself,  and divide those unsuspecting residents of the shire along lines that had never before existed, a characteristic common in despots realizing their plight.

And the shire came to a fork in the road.  

Decision making

Should it be destroyed or should it be rebuilt with the optimism it once had?

That...is to be determined.

You nailed it.


  1. Oh, I had to comment on this one...!

  2. To me it can only be one person that I call "the pariah." So much has been commented in past times and none of it has come to fruition. What did we as a senior society do to deserve him? And what makes him worse is that we see the idiots that think he is "OK."

    You nailed the "peacock" aka Berman. 


  2. Virginia, please don't confuse a peacock with a buzzard who thrives on road kill.
