so big

  

 

My private cosmic humor

sly silent smiles

suffuse, soothe

like love's succoring

 

 

 

do you seek who to blame/hate;

do you seek useful solutions?

 

 

 

the world that doesn't acknowledge me

is not my responsibility

 

 

 

Society is breaking down

while we are distracted

by the crisis of the day

 

 

 

It's not about the money,

Money is just a placeholder

for the actual stuff and labor

to create what the people need,

 

 

 

Not poor, but VERY far from

even lowest level rich --

I think we call this "middle income"

though strangely incredibly distant

from the midpoint of zero and billions,

 

 

 

It's not business that is bad,  It's big oil,

big pharm, big capture of industry, too big,

so big they think they are in charge,

make the rules for us all.

Keep it small,

small enough to need to be friendly.

 

 

 

I am getting sick of people assuming that

 "government"  is defined by the government

they perceive in their particular place and time

[same for religion]

 

 

 

Parties are people -- the people who bother

 to put in the time, resources, thought, interest;

and they are exactly what that base creates

art and other information

 

I keep trying to tell people that guns

are not that good for self-defense and

more likely make one feel falsely secure

rather than doing what will actually

keep you (and others) safe

 

 

 

 

 

On such a precarious edge

All we can do not to fall off

How can we possibly take, accommodate,

radical change?

 

 

 

Golden moments

gathered in eternal souls

beautiful bindings tether us whole

warm heart, breath

calm stinging cold, help us

journey toward hope's reward.

 

 

 

I'm dealing with the pain

-- not my pain, the pain

right now we coexist

so I have to deal with it

like any obnoxious roommate.

 

 

 

People for the most part do not

vote based on sensible argument

We vote based on emotion.

 

 

 

See all these desperate people

dying to be free

screaming for liberation,

for basic humane recognition,

respect.  For self-actualized life,

privacy, space to be outside society,

to become who we are.

See scaffolding of social identity

as rational philosophy, community

self-rule.  We who know our own

relationships, our own rituals and

histories, we whose vested interests

resist most loudly, persits above and

beyond this moment's hysteria.

Addicted to fear, what if it's scarier

to stay caught in unbearable reality?

Where is your tie to mortality when

all is eternally merely nearly dead,

good and bad defined by dire greed

of insane fools and their predators?

 

 

 

I do hope my social

is of benefit to others.

It gives my time some strucutre,

distracts from tedious discomforts.

 

 

 

A civilized society is one

where by deafult

we treat each other well.
