I Love America, Some Random Thoughts
I’ve
almost forgotten that America is a highly sophisticated security state. I get
the feeling, maybe it’s just deja vue, that we’re living in the fifties again,
giving birth to the sixties again. Does Joe bring that on? He’s acting as if
America can and will fix all these problems if he had just come along a little
sooner.
Just
a hunch.
Chomsky probably thought so too because he
also sees the external state of things as they really are and not what people
want them to be, so he probably saw it too.
Every moment counts-
including this one
Keep life moving forward-
looking backward is for idle minded time travelers
Inhale the future-exhale
the past
be u-nique
be here now
I am desperate.
I started following the sayings from inside small candy wrappings until I ate the entire package, trying to find the one that would change my life.
My (we)Poetry
My poetry is the natural crash between who I think we
am
And what I want to be. Dichotomy or
a Contradiction
Though the juxtaposition between past and future
Isn't always equal to the present condition.
Like an artist who is asked why
He paints in shades of only black and white,
Answers-because that's the only colors He
knows.
And you can put she in wherever we italicize he.
Everyone has their (his her it’s them

Make believe it.
That's what makes the world go around.

Before all the forced
history
Shoved down our throats,
the lies, the untruths, the hyperbole, exaggerated and the contrived.
The lot that insists on solidarity with the masses rather
than imposing radical change upon the masses, thus, supposedly, giving the
impression that the ill-defined and undefined masses, who I guess is anyone
with enough chutzpah to hit the streets at any time over any transgression,
only belies the notion that solidarity is a recognition that there are the
masses, as ill-defined and undefined as they are, are still separate from
whoever they are in solidarity with.
Just get on with revolution rather than playing fruitless
" democratic" games. The only muscle any movement has is the muscle
of being solidly independent of the culture they're trying to revolve from
rather than around.
Political pornography
What is wrong with this country will destroy it, and for
those who scream but what about what is good about it, well, what's good about
it isn't enough to save it.

On death and dying
In reference to momento mori
If death and dying were as simple as just accepting that
it's going to happen no matter what because it's a natural byproduct of the
living process, the payoff, so to speak for the work that living entails, then
the world would probably be a different place. In the economic world we have
created for ourselves, dying is the debit for all the credit we established. No
one wants to make the final payment on living under any circumstances. In
addition, we have placed a series of legal barricades for anyone to actually
anticipate their own mortality and freely making their own decisions to take
matters into their own hands. These legal barriers include normal cultural and
spiritual taboos against usurping "gods will", ( and this is where
every analysis gets complicated), the usurpation of gods will is abstracted
enough to allow the state itself to confiscate that right by war or
authoritarian directive. the dominance of the health care industry to use human
beings as an all-encompassing laboratory for medical experimentation. It's the
purpose of the corporate managed health care system to see how long we can
prolong life, no matter what any one patient wants.
In the modern world, we are turned over to the state (by
our parents) and thereafter stamped by sex, nationality, race, class-
categorized and mesmerized.
Pluto
All I can say about Pluto is I'm glad it wasn't made of
gold.
It would take nine years for the Pluto niners (the ninth
planet) to get there, in addition to the expenditure of the world's remaining
resources to finance the capitalists to get there, and ten years for Pluto to
become the first "ghost" planet.
I'm sure the Future history of Pluto will demonstrate this success
story.
How much fucking information do we need to decide.
Decide what?
You know, decide what we're going to do next.
We're going to do nothing like we did nothing to prevent the
Natives, then the Jews, and now, the world from dying.
That doesn't sound too good.
Not too good is what we do best.
Progress is much like an atomic bomb. On the ground progress
sweeps across the surface as a shock wave, clearing out in front of it for the
settling of dust.
There are too many people and as in the medieval ages the
church will have the last say, which will be-reproduce, reproduce,
reproduce
California's attempts to regulate water supply is an example
of too many people syndrome which will dominate and cause to fail all attempts
in minimize the effects of climate change as well as diminishing resources due
to unrestricted population growth.
So called freedom to reproduce will ultimately be paired
with dismissed resources in creating a new "dark" period in human
history. Recovery from that, or progress, will certainly be an invitation for
the rise of new totalitarianism.
