1251:
We’re just humble cleaners. We work for the wealthy folks living on
Concern Street. We’re good little mice,
hardly noticed, who perform a service for them.
On Concern Street there’s a whole
range of people with all sorts of qualities. Ostensibly this is where respectable middle
class people live. They’re the sort of people who are educated, thoughtful
and concerned about all sorts of issues, but they tend to leave a lot of mess
after them, which is why they get us in to do the cleaning up. We’re there to clean up, yes, but we’re there
to learn too.
We aren’t really their
cleaners, we’re more like their silent changers. We hope they’ll learn how to live a less
messy life. But to do our job properly we, who’re into Animal Rights, are
wanting to bring to the attention, of those living on Concern Street, the mess
they leave behind them. They don’t mean
to be messy but they have messy minds. They
need the cleaners. And we know that there’s something preventing these fine
folks from cleaning up their act. They
might not realise what it is, so we must continue to do their cleaning for
them. If we told them about their mess
they wouldn’t listen to us – to them we’re just ‘the cleaners’ and they hardly
even notice us. They like what we do,
what we represent, but they don’t expect us to have anything important to say
to them.
Animal Rights won’t build
momentum amongst the general population yet, since we hardly touch the surface
of their collective conscience. And so
we are simply present, performing a simple task, performing a ritual dance of
conscience, providing an entertainment almost, just by cleaning up for them.
