Within US & Without US

Space between us all
merely illusion
a distorted perception
an effect of our frame of reference

If we could perceive truth
we could see difference, distance
mere illusion
as we're all one,
& life flows on
within us
& without us.

There can be no spooky action at a distance, because there is no such thing as distance, distance is merely an effect we perceive from our current frame of reference. The absolute speed of everything is always zero. Why are you in such a hurry when you're already there?

If you believe Rush Limbaugh is the soul
The Republican party has today
The fact you must accept from that would flow
To Satan sold its soul, must fade away.

As Bull Elephant musth trumpeting warn

Religious Worthiness :: לא תרצח

Any religion
which must protect its dignity
by violence and mayhem

Carried to its logical conclusion
must murder the whole of humanity
as ipso facto - that religion
has NO DIGNITY!

Spooky Action at a Distance

SScrath Oops

Either
1) The result of a driver in a Ford Explorer at location A has a non-local effect on the physical reality of another distant Motorcycle, in the sense that the rider can predict outcomes of the driver in the Ford Explorer from some observation carried out at B; or...

2) Quantum mechanics is incomplete in the sense that some element of physical reality corresponding to the Motorcycle Rider at B cannot be accounted for by quantum mechanics (that is, some extra variable is needed to account for him.)

Turn Turn Turn :: SHEHEIT

It is 5:30
on a Wednesday afternoon

A woman sits
a Red Cherokee
engine running

She wants her Grand Jeep
to turn left from Emmerson onto Greenville Boulevard

There is a motorcycle
he is standing directly in front of her
he has been waiting to turn left
from Greenville Boulevard
onto Emmerson

he has been
waiting
for the black car
it is illegally driving
down the middle
of the center turn lane
in front of him

He is waiting for it
to pull over in to traffic on Greenville Boulevard
may be be fore running over him

then it passes
then there is a break in the traffic
then he could turn left onto Emmerson

what in her simian brain
compels the woman
to begin her turn
then?

Descending into the underground realm in the late afternoon

The stretching trail behind me, a wry 's,
Wends her winding way up to the far distance
So that I no longer can see, nor remember, the beginning
High up, near the promontory bluff

The shortening path before me, drops off,
But not so very far that, though still hidden,
I can not see near his end
Where he finally drops precipitously into the gaping
Caverns below

Walk this way
Now I stroll on down this way
Maybe I’ll stop here or there

Perhaps to see some small furry creature
Scurrying across the way
Never seen again

Perhaps to note some small plant
Growing along by the way
No one noticed before

Here’s a small stone
Being right in the way
Streaked with such beauty

All most alive

No longer so youthfully eager
To speed on down the trail
As previously, I once was

The son once so bright
now casting into shade.

Maybe I would linger
Here, ᾍδης still unseen
A little longer
On the trail
Before I reach
My journey’s end.

So broke you feel strange
And now the moment

That's breaking your back.

And a wheel on a rack

Oh New York City

Widows down in New York City.
See the old folks

Hear the screamin'.
Don't it take you down, homey?

That's breaking your back.

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA

Barack H. Obama is the 44th President of the United States.

“We will not apologize for our way of life,
nor will we waver in its defense,

& for those who seek to advance their aims by inducing terror and slaughtering innocents,
we say to you now that our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken;
you cannot outlast us, and

we will defeat you!”

Time Magazine :: Surprising case of condescending bullshit

Apr. 30, 1965 - “... if he had read a newspaper since the test ban treaty was signed on Aug. 5, 1963, ...” *
The kind of condescending bullshit one would expect in some racist cracker southern rag, but it is rather jarring to see it printed by so-called “respectable journalists” in Time magazine‽


“..., he should have known to be passe.” *
If I were to be a condescending bullshit artist, I might write, “Isn't it rather ignorant to print passé without accute é‽”

* “He also allowed as how [sic] he didn't mind having fellow civil rights leaders speak out against the U.S.'s [sic] try-to-win policy in Viet Nam, spoke up against, of all things [sic], nuclear bomb testing—an issue that, if he had read a newspaper since the test ban treaty was signed on Aug. 5, 1963 [sic], he should have known to be passe [sic].”
http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,898653,00.html
—Time magazine, King Moves North, Friday, Apr. 30, 1965.
If I were further to be a condescending bullshit artist, I might ask how it was that Time would have the clairvoyance to see that the test ban treaty would end all testing. (e.g. China, India, Pakistan, North Korea, & ... ???). Perhaps if Time's journalists or editors had read any newspaper since October 16, 1964 they may have had cause to question whether the test ban was holding‽

Caputer :: Immanent act of imminent philologist Armón emanates new word

Caputer [kah-poot-ter]
–noun
Leader of a country who has devastated the country lead.

Eminent obsolete philologist Armón of Vila Verde, Carlosterra Norte has phlebotomised the word Caputer, hopefully not in vain.

This word combines the mean/ings/ness of the words [K][C]apo, Caput and Kaput with all the derogatory implications of Pooter to describe a leader of a country who has devastated the country lead.

Examples of this are: Cr. Adolf Hitler, Cr. Josef Stalin, Cr. Saddam Hussein, Cr. George Bush, & Cr. Robert Mugabe.

Cr. Mugabe of Zimbabwe Discovers Pestiferous Plots

Cr. Mugabe of Zimbabwe discovers pernicious plots to oust him from power.

These insidious plots are called "The Will of the Zimbabwean People" and "Democracy".

If things continue as they are, all of Zimbabwe will be pestilential. Cr. Mugabe believes his plans will foil these perfidious plots.

His plans are called "Brutal Violent Oppression" and "Fascist Dictatorship".

Even now we can see his plans coming to fruition.

Fearless caput Robert Mugabe kaput of Zimbabwe discovers new medical technique : Struthio camelus caput!

Fearless leader Robert Mugabe, Caputer of Zimbabwe, discovers Struthio camelus caput medical technique! Cr. Mugabe has used this technique to completely cure Zimbabwe's cholera epidemic. After declaring there is no more cholera in Zimbabwe, Caputer Mugabe is now able to say, "I am happy to say ... now that there is no cholera."

Cr. Mugabe is believed to have developed this technique as an improvement on the technique used to achieve military victory in Iraq by Cr. Bush.

South African leaders hope to learn this technique from Cr. Mugabe as they may need it in order to cure all the thousands of cholera infected Zimbabweans who are pouring over the borders into South Africa.

Live Hog

One day, an old BMWMO had a vision of his next bike. He immediately called in his favorite riding companion and begged a favor of him.

"Anything for you." the companion replied.

"On my next ride, I will come back on a hog. Soon after my CS dies, our dealer will get a trade-in and I will want the first hog he receives. You will recognize me by a kerchef on my brow. When that happens, please take a sharp knife and end my life quickly."

Within the year, the CS passed away and the dealer got a trade-in. The companion sharpened his knife and found the kerchef'd biker. Suddenly the biker screamed "Stop! Don't kill me!"

The companion dropped his knife in surprise and stared at the biker. "When I was like you I didn't know what a hog would be like. It's great. Just let me go."

As I walked out in the streets of Portland
As I walked out in Portland one night

I remembered a drummer all wrapped in bright paisley
Wrapped up in bright paisley, koolest drummer in sight

I see by your outfit that you're experienced
These words he did say bold as love I strolled by

Come strum beside me and hear my sad story
I once kissed the sky and must now fade away

Oh beat the drum slowly and strum guitar lowly
Play grateful dead march as you carry Mitch along

Take him to Maui out by Haleakala
for he's Jimi's drummer, we miss him, so long

Light Acquaintance

I have been one acquainted with the light.
I have walked out in rain - and back in light.
I have outwalked the furthest city night.
I have looked down the saddest country lane.
I have passed the policeman on his beat
will grace attain - lift eye to bright.

I ran & filled the road with the sound of feet
When near by a wailing cry
Came waifting across the street,

Left small comfort crying one gave I
Walked child home before falling night
One last knock the missing clock on high

Proclaiming all ways now the time is right.
I have been once acquainted with the light.

Barracked When

I though I heard a trumpet call
a clarion sound of joy

Like on the day the mist will fall
returning man from croix


See dewy sparkle golden light
raise from behind the hill

When morning birds shouting song might
awake me with a thrill


A sweet taste savoury victory
the expectation might

the pale in contradictory
the change from wrong to right


Winging out, I'll be touched by gay
to see the scoundrels leave

Ƿ, Shining One, fought God one day
Milton described the heave


Dove's olive branch it smells of peace

O to the sky take flight
Back virtue now, hope no more cease
Make just his turn to might!
