This is the Best it Gets?

 

Religion has screwed this world up.

In the grand scheme of things, anything a republican, MSM media talking head , evangelist, or white supremacist says means nothing.

Understanding the past is not an American, MSM media, nor especially a republican, evangelist, or a white supremacist trait. It is a human trait. We are screwed as long as republicans, MSM media talking heads, evangelists, or white supremacists have any sway in our discourse.

Shit happens because evangelists, republicans, MSM meat heads, and white supremacist asswipes have a say in our government.

Deflection, distraction, and projection.

This is the republican/evangelist/white supremacist playbook.

I have one question for republicans/evangelists/white supremacists. What have you done in the last 50 years to help people that aren't dickhead rich cretins or brain dead sheep?

When any of the many republican reactions fail, republicans/evangelists/white supremacists fall back on their primary trait; Deception (lying).

Face it, people, as long as meat headed republicans and the needle dicks known as white supremacists and the con men known as evangelists have a say in our government we are screwed!

How does this shit happen (Rhetorical)?

Shit happens because we allow racism/sexism to exist.

Shit happens because rich people don't care about US or climate change.

Shit happens because republicans, corporatists, and evangelists want our society to be functionally misanthropic.

Shit happens because we haven't taught our kids right from wrong.

Shit happens because we are ruled by misanthropes who don't give a shit about anyone but themselves.

Shit happens because we don't care anymore that republicans have made a mess of everything and that "R"s will save US.

Shit happens because we don't have proper media coverage.

Shit happens because we don't care anymore.

Republicans (who are mostly white supremacists/Churchies, corporatists are not your friends.) They are the ooze from your backside and the meat from your nose.

I would like to believe we are better than that.

I can not be troubled by these assholes.

They will continue to screw US over until they have won.

The best/worst part is that when they win they will inherit the wind.

We are ruled by corporations and evangelican miscreants.

This whole world is a SHITSHOW!

We seem to be screwed no matter which way we turn.

I love US and will not be denied.

Don’t let religion screw your world up.

God is Dead

 

Life is precious because it is short.

There is no purpose or destiny beyond what you give of yourself.

Stop waiting to live or love life because of god.

You are better than this.

God is beyond the verification of science.

Faith protects the idea of god from proof.

Let us elevate hope to a truth,

In the end you and I are stardust.

God is the note we sing together,

A mote within us.

The weather,

Or a cell.

Are we becoming sick,

From our own hate?

Not what to blame for our love of war.

Not what to believe; anymore.

Stop!!!

Hating ourselves,

For the faults of money grubbers...

We have the internet to soothe us,

We have voices in our heads.

When did boredom become a thing,

What is the sound of a freedom ring?

Stop!!!

Hating ourselves,

For the faults of money grubbers...

If you don't know one thing,

Then one thing seems like a lot.

We have the internet to soothe us,

We have voices in our heads.

Stop!!!

Hating ourselves,

For the faults of money grubbers...

Republicans

 

In the grand scheme of things, anything a republican says or a Supreme Court ruling means nothing.

Understanding the past is not an American, nor especially a republican or modern Supreme Court trait.

We are fucked as long as republicans and this god damned Supreme Court have a say in our government.

There were presidents who ignored Supreme Court rulings and did what they had to do.

Biden put the worst justice ever (Clarence) on the court.

He won't do anything against the status quo.

He is a lame ass corporatist democrat.

We only elected this smelly fart because the alternative was worse.

Deflection, distraction, and projection.

This is the republican playbook.

I have one question for republicans.

What have you done in the last 75 years to help people that aren't rich?

When any of their reactions fail, republicans fall back on their primary trait; Deception (lying).

Face it, people, as long as republicans (and especially republican Supreme Court justices) have a say in our government we are fucked!

How does this shit happen (Rhetorical)?

Shit happens because we allow racism/sexism to exist.

Shit happens because rich fucks fuck us and don't give a fuck about fucking our climate.

Shit happens because republicans want a fucking society to be functionally misanthropic and white.

Shit happens because we haven't taught our kids right from wrong.

Shit happens because we are ruled by misanthropes who don't give a shit about anyone but themselves.

Shit happens because we don't care anymore that republicans have fucked everything up.

Shit happens because we have a Supreme Court that has been corrupted by ideology.

Shit happens because we don't care.

We are fucked as long as these fuckity, fucks rule.

Republicans are not your friends.

They are the ooze from your backside and the meat from your nose.

I would like to believe we are better than that.

Democrats are no better. They have allowed this shit parade since Smedley Butler and the failed republican coup in the 30s.

Fuck US!

This shit must not continue.

The End of Times

 

This is my mom.

She was everything to me and sadly today, it appears to be nothing to me.

I mourned her loss 26 years ago and it still seems like yesterday. I am reminded of that loss with the passing of her best friend. Mrs. Ambrose (Betty) was 93. The last vestige of my youth is gone. I was a Cub Scout and more under their care. I will remember those days until I, like them, am gone and lost to memory.

This was my mom...

Right before we lost her in 1996.

She had no reason to live after my father passed away the year previously.

She made everything in my life ok. 

I became me because of her.

Disneyland

 My first experience with Disneyland was when I was but a toddler (I was born in Anaheim). I remember the picnic tents and the Matterhorn mountain. It was fun.

As I grew up I realized I loved that place (my thoughts have changed in the interim). I grew up in the 60s and every year my family would go to Disneyland. It was a magical place. I had nothing to escape from, but I became part of a dream. I could go to a place where my thoughts were real and I could live in a different world. 

My father loved to tease us and once he realized I was scared to death of "Snow White" he would make a point of taking us on this ride every year (I would close my eyes through the whole ride and he seemed to enjoy that.) Fantasyland was awesome in spite of my trepidation. Sleeping Beauty's castle has alway made me happy. There used to be a food place where they served tuna sandwiches called "Captain Hooks" on a pirate ship in this wonderful land.  They would put plastic swords in the sandwiches and it was part of the dream. We would ride the "Tea Cups", fly with "Dumbo", and tour "The Matterhorn". This is part of the dream.

Tomorrowland was wondrous. Cars that kids could drive, a spectacle of future living (Carousel of Progress), and Moon flights. I especially loved the submarine ride and the rocket ships. As I grew older I enjoyed their band stand, "People Mover", and "America, the Beautiful" experience in 360 degree wonder. Good times.

My mother loved the "Tiki Hut" (she loved "It's a Small World" too, but I hated it.) and so did I. Adventureland was an experience I have always loved. We would travel to the "Jungle Cruise" and I would revel in the fear and wonder of Africa. We would climb the tree house and walk and do things. The "Mark Twain" was a nice distraction. 

I eventually came to love this place because of the added land of "New Orleans Square". Two rides dominated my fantasy at this juncture. "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Haunted Mansion. Words cannot express my joy and wonder while experiencing these attractions. Once I was old enough to go on my own I would head to this place first.

Disneyland was a magical place and forever ingrained in my mind.

I am disappointed

in what it has become.

Listen and wonder!

 

I, Idiot

Become nothing,

Renounce everything.

Laughing and playing,

We become...

Something more,

or less.

I am an idiot,

You are not.

Become something,

Praise everything.

Something less,

or more.

This world shuns us,

I am an idiot.

A thinking world becomes what we fear,

Of this fear, you are not.

Faith gives me little hope,

Charity becomes my only hope.

I am an idiot,

You are not.

Faith, hope, and charity become sins,

When we forget.

I am an idiot,

You are not.

We are the land of the free.

It is time to burn this bridge.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLODGhEyLvk

I can only look forward to this country getting worse as long as rich fucks rule.

Incubation

I awoke one day,

And on this day it spawned.

I wanted the world to be forever,

And it wasn't..

Life makes me what I am.

Despite my hates.

Despite my wants.

I fell asleep one day,

And on this day it perished.

I needed a world of love,

And it failed...

Hope makes me what I am,

With all my hates,

With all my needs.

I walk through the world today,

And find a people wanting.

Needing,

Sleep as part of death...

Police and the Lies we Hold to be Truth

We have lived in a world where we have had smoke pumped up our ass for so long that we accept it as normal.

Here is a tidbit of truth...

There is no objective Media. (money is the crux of their existence).

What will it take to have a person in AUTHORITY say that this shit is wrong?

There must be a moral cop somewhere?

I had a person come up to me and say that cops don't like corruption and they treat "bad" cops worse than criminals. If this were true then we (the public) should be hearing about this because our faith in law enforcement is going down the crapper. Why is this a secret and who the fuck is telling you that it should be.

Police State: A police state is a country in which the government controls people's freedom by means of the police, especially secret police. The FBI and the CIA have haunted us since the post WW1 (FBI) and WW2 (CIA) years. These are secret police. If you study the history of regular police in the US then you have studied the ways and means of the elites (1%) and their facility to control.

Control is the key word and if we look at the elites who lost the Civil War we see a unique use of control. For a thorough look at the elites who won this war we only have to look at our faces in the mirror. The US became rich and the majority of its people failed and became poor.

In the Southern states the development of American policing followed a different path. The genesis of the modern police organization in the South is the "Slave Patrol." The first formal slave patrol was created in the Carolina colonies in 1704. Slave patrols had three primary functions: (1) to chase down, apprehend, and return to their owners, runaway slaves; (2) to provide a form of organized terror to deter slave revolts; and, (3) to maintain a form of discipline for slave-workers who were subject to summary justice, outside of the law, if they violated any plantation rules. Following the Civil War, these vigilante-style organizations evolved in modern Southern police departments primarily as a means of controlling freed slaves who were now laborers working in an agricultural caste system, and enforcing "Jim Crow" segregation laws, designed to deny freed slaves equal rights and access to the political system.

My point is that of all the multitude of people in authority in this fucked up country there must be a few strong and intelligent people who see what our "leaders" are doing to US.

I am not holding my breath...

Blinded by Science

      All present life must end in order to replenish future life.

     We are stardust; a twinkle gathered and redistributed at a point in time and space.

     We shine with both the fire of the sun and the reflective glow of the moon.

     Treat each other well for this is the best we can do.

Dreams of Being

A world caught upside down for no reason other than to placate lying thieves and soulless cretins. I am riddled with the myth of ages and yet my perceptions are clear as glass. How is the view from a cloudy bluff?

Perpetual and Infinite Limits

One day I woke to find,
I had left the past behind.
My body felt every collision,
of my presence...

and collusion

With here,
With now.

A silver ball, rolling here,
There-- I really didn't care where.
Just keep rolling--No speed limits,
Never stop... Don't ever stop.
Absorb the shock,
Friction, heat, air flow, cooling.
Sensual immersion.

White hot-- Brilliance,
Searing flesh and tissue.
Melting bone and nerves.

Colors invading, billions,
Sharply blending flat.
Clear and present I hear colors...

Red Herrings

Blue Mondays
Yellow Scares

Explosions of sound and light,

Colors unite.
I become all as none,
Gray to the billions.

Dichotomies, a matter of scope:

on off on white black white yes no yes go stop go
Win lose win laugh cry laugh I you I Love hate love
Happy sad Happy true false true good bad good girl boy girl

And sequence...

Where does it begin?
Where does it end?

What is it?

It is here,
It is now.

Open up the universe-- pop.
I am becoming cosmic before
my disappearing self.
from my diminishing view the
microcosmic lessens as the subatomic
worlds encompass infinity.

A universe within
and a universe without.

Omniversal dimensions beyond time,
Infinite layers sharing space.
up down in out left right forward backward,
Chaotic madness never to be defined.
Order some order controllers.

A silver ball in motion.
no top, no bottom,
all top, all bottom, inside and out

Understanding only through being, being, being, being, being, being, .....
What Cause?
Because...

It is you
it is me
it is life
it is death

it is all... (nothing more and nothing less)

World's collide
Provide
Stardust
Universal sustenance,
Time
Markers forgotten in a
Perpetually infinite NEW.

Old becomes relative and
Inconsequential to what is
True.
Being
Here
Now.
Absorb all experience
The past prevents the future-now ever to become.

Limits/boundaries/claims
Stifle
Creation didn't happen and
won't ever happen!
Creation is here and now
no points
no lines
no circles
no grids
no registers

Creation transcends Place and is impervious to time--
Laws, dogma and paradigms are irrelevant and without value or merit.

This is it,
That wasn't it.

It is here
It is not there.

What is it?
Why is it?
How is it?
When is it?
Where is it?

It is living live.
It can't be recorded,
nor predicted.

Memories are not it,
It will never be guessed, arrived at, or conjectured
about-- even educationally.

There, You have
it.

Rapture

Dark comfort; an oozing splendor. Life forced out and I am left sobbing. Years turn to centuries and days are but minutes. Trauma explodes as I ponder a sugary coating upon shrubbery. Snow is misunderstood by desert creatures. Machines tear flesh into ribbons and a cripple emerges. Carefree and careless are synonyms for freedom. A wild child stutters, mumbles and is silenced for sins made by the fathers. Thus, creation is unmade and we are left to mourn our past, our present and especially our future.

That's the way the cookie crumbles...

Sweet Thing

Let's have a moment of silence for the biggest "shoulda, coulda, woulda" in the history of this "Great Experiment." It didn't work. The better angels of our nature were drowned in the bathtub and we are left with little to do but gawk and wonder at the sheer savagery and ruthlessness of greed running amok. It is a marvel to behold the seriousness of such petty minds in action.

Plague of Fools

People are stupid.

Given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything.

Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it is true, or because they are afraid it might be true.

People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it is all true.

People are stupid.

They can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

People as a group defy interpretation. 

They move in herds and make noises.

Noisy groups get heard (pun intended).

I love loving...

YOU!!!

Poetry Sucks

Life is precious because it is short.

There is no purpose or destiny beyond what you give of yourself.

Stop waiting to live or love life because of god.

You are better than this.

God is beyond the verification of science.

Faith protects the idea of god from proof.

Let us elevate hope to a truth,

In the end you and I are stardust.

Are we becoming sick,

From our own hate?

Not what to blame for our love of war.

Not what to believe; anymore.

Stop!!!

Hating ourselves,

For the faults of money grubbers...

We have the internet to soothe us,

We have voices in our heads.

When did boredom become a thing,

What is the sound of a freedom ring?

Stop!!!

Hating ourselves,

For the faults of money grubbers...

If you don't know one thing,

Then one thing seems like a lot.

We have the internet to soothe us,

We have voices in our heads.

Stop!!!

Hating ourselves,

For the faults of money grubbers...

Damn US

Depths

I have cold hands pressed firmly against a forehead of steel,

My iron strings are hollowed and freezing,

Electric are the nerves of my being.

You have a presence that bespoke of a realm of the real,

Archaic wisdom lost in space and time,

Electronics upon us in the age of crime.

Cold death awaits us,

The Iron child must die.

Glittering dust,

and smoke.

I have the worst of us within and without,

My love is frightening,

Lightning.

You are but a thought for which I doubt,

A love I had in my head at one time,

A love I wish I had now; sublime...

Coldness holds me,

Iron shackles bind me.

Flickering dreams,

and haze.

I have a burning soul,

My love would make a world quake,

For your sake?

Reality Bites

     There is a conscious trait among humans that make us what we should be and by extension do well by each other. This is a given trait among us. The truth is much starker than this. The goodness in our hearts is blackened by a society that permits sociopaths to control our world. How do they control our world without being found? We could have progressed to a higher level of thought and social/economic/political level without them but we didn't and now we wonder why?

     A sociopath is a chameleon even within the family and social structure. Love is a game. Trust is a manipulation. Harmony becomes that which the sociopath uses to adhere themselves to a similar population and extend their reach to true humanity. It is our innate goodness and willingness to do well and be loved that is used against us. A sociopath knows the words, but is unable to hum the tune.

 

     Human traits are complex. Our professions have been inundated with sociopaths to such a degree that we have scientists disclaiming “climate change”, doctors prescribing drugs that kill, and lawyers/judges defending racism. Our society has been truly embedded with that which will destroy us and we stand in awe of this because no amount of common sense or logic can produce its opposite.

     This is the WONDER of our age and this will be that which will either save the race or extinguish it...

Ebb Tide

When a country hates itself so much that it doesn't care what happens we are in a state of flux.

I am kind of partial for the former.

Our overlords may differ in their opinion.
