terrorist goats

we planted a symbolic tree (ive learned that in ngo-land symbolic trees dont actually need to be a symbol for anything. we cant burden poor symbolic trees with actual symbols lest they die and where would be then? better to see if it grows and then decide on its symbolic function.). anyway, the tree is very small (more like a shrub), and we are ever vigilant about watering and caring for it.

unbeknownst (theres a weird lookin word...) to any of us, a horde of malicious terrorist goats roams KEDAN's grounds, and now represent the #1 threat to positive tree symbolism in Kibera. whatsmore, these dastardly beasts send their extraordinarly (but its deception!) cute children to attack our tree before ravaging it themselves. terrorist cowards.

some among us (ok, me) seek to weaken the ngo's resolve against the terrorist goats by restraining valiant anti-goat forces from using full force against the vile anti-symbolism-strikers (ASS). Under the veil of "animal welfare" and "your stepping on the tree while you try to hit the goats with a stick" rhetoric, these spineless doves have left KEDAN nary powerless to defend itself (ok, just the shrub) against the existential (ok, just symbolic) ASS threat. these unrepentant symbolism loathers would rather chase terrorist goats around and around the church grounds (welcome to my afternoons) than eliminate the beasts once and for all.

there is every reason to suspect their compolicity in the ASS forces.
