Ghosts of Debates Past

Hillary doing her 'Red Queen' bit. Trump looking like he's suppressing a years worth of psychological operations (by 'the opposition'), being angry because he's pulling all his best material back (he's not going to leave the old lady bruised and dazed) because he's got to undue his truculence in order to sway some people who are still enthralled by the python of big government.

Trump might say that if she wins he'll support her. In this case Trump speaks only for himself.

Epic Syria Fail

Legacy Mongering often results in Epic Failure

The obvious frauds of the obviously fraudulent so-called leadership class can meet all day long at the famous college in Sommerville, trying to secure a legacy that they have totally, by now, already F-d up to the end of Friday. And no body cares at all what they say or do anymore because we want to sweep away this carpet bagger class and tell you what, mister: doesn't matter all you 'well borders are no more', blah blah blather, talking amoungst yourselves about things that no one else outside of your intellectually nepotistic click even believes in. We aren't fabulously wealthy and scheming from the crib to be a 'big important someone', filming ourselves as ' a young lieutenant ' how crass, such grandstanding. And being all somber and all 'oh, how important I am' meanwhile mongering war after war after war.

Hear a trumpet wail for each victim, some beat Bach fugue as a dirge, in a giant reverberate hall 'never forget, always remember' oh! Guardian angels crying out to the King of Kings for justice; breaking seals to reveal the terms or the verdict; and voices in heaven, as a choir, singing of what is real and true.

Ah, but not you. You are 'trying' to 'have a legacy' and it's an epic fail. And maybe at the end of it you'll all end up in jail. Wicked winds. someone's bombing someone somewhere and we kind of know who is the cause of it now. All of this wickedness must end. And legacy hounding ministers and secretaries need to fade off into the winded evening, their effect nullified, their quest for legacy? unplugged. Game over. No more heroes. No more war heroes because without that crowd there might not be anymore wars. Anyone who is trying to be a hero usually has an epic fail.

lighten up
and come back down
you don't have to climb
the highest mountain
to find God.

'Trump is a . . . '

Ya right.

Let's get over this 'Trump is a racist' bull. If he were would the politically correct people of NBC television have let him have a 10 year run in his show, The Apprentice? Or, if he were a racist and a bastard, wouldn't we have heard about it 20 years ago? No, all of this was trumped-up (pun intended) after he decided to try and flay the dragon of bad-governance in some of Cartel Washington.

Politics for Poets recommends: vote for

TRUMP

The Rhodium Age

We live in The Rhodium Age, a time when at some point we will be able to literally turn Carbon into Gold, or to write it as a chemical equation:

C + ? = Au

I leave it to the Chemical menshches to fill in the details of the question mark that I write as part of my mock equation. But you get the idea.

Here is another mock equation where we convert silver to Rhodium and Helium, and float off to heaven in the meantime:

Ag + some unknown process = Rh + He

A single Silver atom usually has an atomic mass of 108. Silver 107 may exist as an isotope (hence the weight being less than 108). If one could separate out the AU-107 and use that the above equation, converting Silver into Rhodium and Helium, almost makes sense. We ought to get back Rhodium 103. But I might have all of this wrong, so, Chemists and nuclear physicists, it's up to you to work out details and the 'how'.

Hey, I'm just pointing out what must be obvious to any atomic scienctist: that materials can change from one to another. Perhaps the Helium that we find in the earth is from the decay of Silver into Rhodium? More likely it is produced constantly by solar processes (from the giant plasma streams that bathe The Earth). But here is the real deal: we don't know and they might not want to fund an investigation into how the Helium is produced. And why it hasn't all drifted off into space yet (it being so light) and how we keep getting more of it. I leave it to real journalists to investigate that.

I guess it could be Silver makes a Rhodium and a Helium or Silver makes a Rhodium and two Hydrogen, but it would be heavy Hydrogen, which might make it valuble. But Silver could be broken into many things.

The process to do this is unknown, but the subject of science fiction. Expect a breakthrough.

When people complaign about the words 
you use often they don't really want to 
hear what you have to say.

When he's crazy lonely no one reads his mind he finds himself invisible at a highway stop when it's very cold he shivers thinking that now he must move on to find a home some dream outside the dream of time

Delete and repeat, delete.

      

This period of Deconstruction
will soon end.
He'll get his new beginnings
all along the moldings, lined up.
those railings, all glisten
in the first light of the day
the sun light reaches
far within and makes it all 
clean and pure 
like petal fall
in May with
apple blossoms
showering down like snow
upon the sidewalks and cobbled walkways.

When you're alone on the train
you aren't really alone
there are all kinds of other people
traveling on that same line,
going in a similar direction,
very many destinations
end of the line.

Destination train
moving through a forest
in a driving rain
She said he was insane
for getting on that train.

Destination 2 aim
2 AM in a driving rain
she knows he'll come back again

When you're alone
on a bus
you aren't really alone
the driver is there
all the people you can see 
out on the streets,
down the allyways
besides the buildings
sidewalks glisten
the reflection of starlight
the must be people there too,
space aliens of the long ago
so you're never really alone. 
You're never really alone.

Destination train
driving rain
Destination railway station
in the far away
through the fogs of time
the forests of lost contemplation
where the tallest trees of the forest
will swap their spots, dance around,
a square dance
of sequoias
so in the light of day
they're all OK
and back to where they were before
or who can say?

Destination 2 AM
driving rain
far away train station
freezing rain

Here is today's pretty poem:

  
       
   lighten up
   and come back down
   you don't have to climb
   Everest
   to find God.
   
    

Big moon
in the midnight sky
big big moon
all across the sky
you can see the crowd
as the marching band
marches by
take the crowd a'dancing
off toward the stars.

Oh you big mouthed moon
why do you rave
about the government
while you're in your tie
you are that kind of guy
who has nothing really ready to say
but rest assured,
and he can't be cured
you'll say it any way.

Oh you big mouthed moon
  big mouthed moon
but the women swoon
becaue youre always the most kind
and the worst you do
if anyone's judging you
is to always speak your mind
so in the end you might be wrong
but the world is not harmed.
Oh you big mouthed moon 🌛 🌜
Oh you big mouthed moon  🌝
Oh you big mouthed moon 🌔
🌑 🌒 🌓 🌔 🌕 🌖 🌗 🌘 🌙 🌚 🌛 🌜 🌝

 ♥♥?

There's a river
of infinite love
flooding from on high
through the heart of all.

There's a river
of infinite hope
flushing through the gorges
through the heart of all.

Spread your wings and fly away
off into your day
off into your all

glossry of what's next
 ♥♥? : 

Be nice to yourself and others. What other choice?

Wake up!


You know I thought you was the Buddha
I must have been tripping
on a great big hootta
unn ha haa


Wake up
Wake up
Wake up while you are sleeping

Wake up
Wake up
Wake up and go to sleep

Waking
and rising
sleeping and
dying
and reincarnating
or are they just lying?

Wake up
Wake up
Wake up while you are dreaming
are you ever really awake?
Is it something you can fake?
Can you ever stop
your scheming?

Wake up
Wake up
Wake up and go to sleep
while you are dreaming
while you are resting
you'll wake up when your rested.

If I go off to dreamland
for a life time or five
Is there something wrong or the matter
if I enjoy
being alive?
If I go off to dreamland
and live a good life and stay true
does that take anything from you?

Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
when you are ready
ready and rested
and not second guested
Wake up
and be you.

wake up and be unaware of being the Buddha

♥♥ Praise ♥♥ the ♥♥ Lord ♥♥ !!
