“Let Folly Be Our Cloak”“Let folly be our cloak, a veil before the eyes of the enemy!” -Gandalf, The Fellowship of the Ring, JRR Tolkien The weakest way the surest To catch the enemy unaware Neither wielding the Power or fleeing But heading straight to his perilous lair The halfling of forgotten Shire “Can anything good come from there?” He alone takes the heavy burden Takes freely the weight he must bear “Who of all the Wise could have forseen it?” Such great deeds are known to be rare “Small hands do them because they must While the eyes of the great are elsewhere” Bag End or backwater Nazareth? Frodo and the Son of God share Their unpredictable weakness And their most audacious dare Joshua Coles March 26, 2000
