The intelligence agencies signaled on Friday that they would not easily give up their secrets. Dan Coats, the director of national intelligence, pledged to cooperate with the review but also warned that the secrets of the intelligence community, or I.C., must be protected.

(Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops. Bible. KJV. Luke 12:3.)
Like a worm in luscious fruit,
like the pebble in a boot,
secrets fester and destroy
man's morality and joy.
Keeping mum and playing sly
sends our best laid plans awry.
When transparency departs,
we are left with sterile charts.
When the world is classified
vital truths are cast aside.
May the truth in my heart rage
(unless you want to know my age.)
