Oh, What a Knight

Historically, noble knights were our “do-gooders,” the counterbalance to unfair policies of the King. So, if there were a damsel in distress, or a loyal countryman set on by thieves, rest easy, a trusted knight would soon arrive, with justice, revenge or rescue.. In modern America, this mythical tradition is carried on by “overgrown boy scouts” in the style of Jim Comey (or Neil Gosuch), who find untold ways to recite an oath of honor.. and if there’s doubt, they “gosh golly” and “gee whiz” past even the most hardened guards, and into the castle. Meanwhile, along the King’s Highway, we make our deals, but do still keep an ear out, for those hoofsteps, of some noble knight..
