Gate<br/><br/>I was born among the flock,<br/>but I was not like them.<br/><br/>I ate when they ate.<br/>I slept where they slept.<br/>I followed the Shepherd as they did.<br/><br/>But I was given teeth—and taught when not to use them.<br/><br/>The sheep thought this strange.<br/>Some pitied me.<br/>Some trusted me only because the Shepherd did.<br/><br/>I did not blame them.<br/><br/>They listened for a voice.<br/>I listened for patterns.<br/>--<br/>At first, the wolves were easy to spot.<br/><br/>They circled at a distance.<br/>Their hunger announced itself.<br/>When they came too close, I stood, and they moved on.<br/><br/>The sheep were grateful then.<br/><br/>They pressed closer to the Shepherd.<br/>Peace returned.<br/>But peace never lasts long.<br/>--<br/>One season, a new voice entered the field.<br/><br/>It sounded like ours.<br/>It spoke gently.<br/>It quoted the Shepherd’s words—but not in his order.<br/><br/>The sheep leaned in.<br/><br/>I watched.<br/><br/>The voice spoke often of freedom<br/>but avoided obedience.<br/>It praised compassion<br/>but mocked vigilance.<br/><br/>I growled—not loudly, only enough for the Shepherd to hear.<br/><br/>Some sheep noticed.<br/>They stepped back.<br/><br/>Others did not.<br/>--<br/>Then the goats arrived.<br/><br/>They had always been there, really—<br/>wandering the edges, feeding where it was easiest.<br/><br/>They disliked fences.<br/>They tolerated the Shepherd.<br/>They resented watchfulness.<br/><br/>When I moved closer to the new voice, the goats bristled.<br/><br/>“Why so tense?” they asked.<br/>“Why all the suspicion?”<br/>“Surely the Shepherd wouldn’t allow danger here.”<br/><br/>I did not answer.<br/><br/>I kept my eyes on the fruit.<br/>--<br/>When the Shepherd called, the sheep turned—slowly, uncertainly—but they turned.<br/><br/>The goats did not.<br/><br/>They asked questions instead.<br/><br/>“When did he say that?”<br/>“Are you sure that’s what he meant?”<br/>“Why does it always come back to authority?”<br/><br/>The new voice smiled at them.<br/>--<br/>The wolf never attacked the sheep first.<br/><br/>He attacked me.<br/><br/>Not with teeth—but with words.<br/><br/>He called me violent.<br/>Unloving.<br/>Unnecessary.<br/><br/>The goats echoed him.<br/><br/>Some sheep wavered.<br/><br/>I stood my ground anyway.<br/><br/>I had learned something the flock had not:<br/><br/>A true shepherd does not need to defend himself from the truth.<br/>A true sheep does not bargain with his call.<br/>--<br/>When the wolf finally struck, it was quick.<br/><br/>One sheep fell.<br/>Another scattered.<br/><br/>Only then did the disguise tear.<br/><br/>The Shepherd came—not late, but precise.<br/><br/>The wolf was driven out.<br/>The sheep were gathered.<br/><br/>The goats stood apart.<br/>--<br/>Later, as the flock rested, a lamb approached me.<br/><br/>“Why didn’t you warn us louder?” she asked.<br/><br/>I lowered my head.<br/><br/>“I did,” I said.<br/>“But not all warnings sound like comfort.”<br/><br/>She thought for a long moment.<br/><br/>Then she went to lie near the Shepherd.<br/>--<br/>The goats left the field before winter.<br/><br/>No one drove them out.<br/>They simply went where no voice called them back.<br/>--<br/>I still walk the perimeter.<br/><br/>I still listen.<br/><br/>I still submit.<br/><br/>Because I have learned this:<br/><br/>The sheep know the Shepherd’s voice.<br/>The goats know their own.<br/>The wolves know neither.<br/>And the sheepdog must be willing to be hated by all three<br/>if he is to remain faithful to the one. <img src="https://image.nostr.build/29c1d2c06f5f1d74bf3ee559ab80fb530dcd9c8a8ad846ca1a805b8a691b7caa.jpg"> 2025-12-15T17:04:16Z
