For My Brother Sici...
A poison Tree
I was angry with my friend:
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
And I waterd it in fears
Night & morning with my tears;
And I sunned it with smiles,
And with soft deceitful wiles.
And it grew both day and night,
Till it bore an apple bright.
And my foe beheld it shine,
And he knew that it was mine,
And into my garden stole,
When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning glad I see
My foe outstretchd beneath the tree.

In other words Sici, be careful of any apples that you happen to find along the way.
Ya know, in many ways I see Sici as one of the most civil posters here. He unfailingly responds to posts, he never, that I have seen, resorts to personal attacks on other posters, and he is consistent in his beliefs, whether you agree with him or not.

I took issue with his spamming of other member's posts...
We had words...
This is my apology...
And olive branch...

Sorry...
It's by William Blake...
I thought I posted the author...
My mistake...
My poetry is assuredly not comparable to such a master as Blake...

Great poem.
Got beware of some apples, and
who delivers them.
Sleeping Beauty comes to mind.

All of what you say here is true. Sici & I have always had civil and/or cordial exchanges.

I can not honestly say that. I attack those that attack me or my beloved Corps or America

I am not familiar with yours and Sicilianthing's history on this forum.
I could be wrong, but I'm fairly sure that Sici served in The Corps.

Some olive branch, you grew a poison apple and lured your foe into eating it.
I have had varying opinions about Sici. Some of the material he posts is excellent and other posts are borderline insane. I even wrote a post about the dichotomy I observed between some of his writings/ posts and the other materials. This is a repost so you don't need to look it up.
The Anomaly That Is Sicilianthing
Sicilianthing is above all else a confusing poster. Every off the wall conspiracy theory, sovereign citizen claptrap and we are all serfs of the Queen theories abound in his posts. He is enamored with the writing of Anna Von Reich, another off the wall nut case with her esoteric legalese jargon and bizarre theories of the nature of the US government and citizenship.
Then he posts things such as "And They Wonder Why Weβre Angry ?β
https://www.onepoliticalplaza.com/t-138454-1.htmlIt is astounding, Most of his posts to me are worthless but then he will respond to one of mine and I find his riposte cogent, insightful and in many cases something I can agree with.
I have speculated about the nature of certain posters, as for instance I stated that Don Dinsdale had to be a team of a least six to account for the sheer volume of his postings. Is that the case with Sicilian Thing? Do we have multiple persons, most of whom are insane paranoiacs, who have interspersed among them some rational people who are aware of history and politics?
He keeps me guessing; when he is on, he has much of value to say. When I get led down the garden path by one of his Anna Reitz rants I vow to not open any more of his posts. He is like potato chips; you always have to go back for just one more.
