scifi nightmare

 

 

We knew it was coming, did nothing

And now it’s here

We’re caught in this science fiction nightmare

 

 

 

It’s not the power that corrupts

But the weaknesses it covers over

 

 

 

It’s not all economics

Even what is about economics is

Not really about these theories and arguments

We categorize as economics.  It’s about

People’s lives, and how we perceive them.

 

 

 

We are so proud of hiding,

of denying our true reality

to be safe within our

communities.

Our communities, that deny

our true realities -- where can

we truly be?

 

 

 

You imagine these people

"fascists", or any dehumanizing

"ist", when they are just people

trying to figure out this being

human, like you.

 

 

 

Fight mentality won't lead us

to Peaceful prosperity.

 

 

 

I don't believe in anything

while I believe in everything

Let the Truth fall where it may.

 

 

 

I have no say,

no authority.

I  fall in place,

I soar to space.

Crazy whore for that trace

of credibility, of something

I can trust.

 

 

 

The Death Penalty

War

Fatal Police Encounters

not Destiny

Escalated beyond supposed

parameters

so fast, as if this stopgap

ultimatum were our best and

only defensive remedy.

Who makes this disgusting

paradigm reality?

To what end?

 

 

 

 

it almost seems like tptb are happy

to make use of these dreadful conditions

to lower the population of the possibly

dangerous masses while they live well

in their climate controlled palaces

 

 

 

why fight?  Fighting just glorifies violence

and discord.  Why not find out what

these grievances really are, why these

people think they want authoritative rule

against their proclaimed love of freedom,

why they embrace violence against people

who otherwise would mean them no harm? 

Why not rebel against dichotomy and find

common ground in our common vulnerable

humanity and work (not fight) for better

relationships, communication, cooperation

for common goals? 

 

I see so many stories of hate and violent

temperament being turned by loving notice. 

People want to be seen, want attention and

approbation and as with the children we all

still are, if we don't get good attention we'll

opt for the bad.  Fascism is just another ism,

another deadening of humanity which is

better approached  with good  work than

more fighting and destruction.
