They Mean Well


Lord save us from those who mean well. 

Their efforts know few restraints because, after all, they mean well. They'll not blink at coercion and punishment, silencing and ostracism, because they alone understand just how much better off we'll be once their work is finished.

And their work is never finished.

While claiming to dislike power, they move toward it like - well, not like a moth to a flame - more like a woodsman to an ax.

We are their trees and we just need some trimming.
