V.D.

It’s easy ter laff, it’s easy ter hate an all that. Well as wi all know t’advanced western capitalist machine has t’ability ter absorb an package for consumption owt abart war, death, famine and of kewers wi Valentine’s Day - or Hallmark Day as it’s known in the U.S. of A. Love is a fewerce - true indestructible, and eternal. Empires will come an go, sadly a might not witness t’death er this vile global power. But a believe an act er love however small is a site of resistance. A an’t got no choice, av gorra believe this. Acts of aggression only breed acts of aggression. It’s hard ter stand up an say "a love yer" especially in communities like ar’s, wheear t’biomas was nurtured an developed of hardness, strength - such displays were sin as unmanly and weak. Hard men rarnd ere were built an designed ter dig into seams er coal. Apart from breeding generations incapable er loving this also meant enslavement and unhappiness. This will change. Mebbi there’s hope. Even for that lad who shot mi reight in t’arse wi his air-pistol when a were on t’cross country run at school. He’s probably art theear nar shoplifting chocolates and Valentine’s Cards.
