Time for a new poem!

No man thinks more highly than I do of patriotism- Patrick Henry

Bipolar
locked in
never whole
yin
yang
right
left

vampire squid on the face of humanity
made from our own id
denial from our own parietal lobe

a massive failure
to want it all
no compromise
all or nothing
better dead
my way or the highway

mathematicians gone financial
suckers, rubes, marks
smartest guys in the room

Remember the Alamo
Waco
Oklahoma City
Virgina Tech
Columbine
Ruby Ridge

Leo Strauss
Chicago School of Economic warfare
Realpolitik


Blame the other
it's not me
illegals
wet backs
slope heads
it's never me

which is more powerful
the jacketed hollow point bullet
the synthetic Collaterized Debt Obligation

A line in the sand
don't tread on me
guy fawkes
jack ruby
conspiracies
bilderburgs

tin foil hat popularism of X files
what do those chemtrails in the sky mean
it is the invisible waves that will zombify us

Schizophrenia
the moving mouth behind the hand
the Don gives a wave to his peloton of lieutenants
turf wars
give them bread and circuses
Samuel Johnson- Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel

Inheritors

The suffering will not be reported tonight
he who has the gold- rules
to keep power unto themselves

This garbage dump
we call society
in mindful chaos


Upon the silvered screen
the multitudes- unwashed and ravenous
storm the gated community of Zardoz

Those who will bring back the primordial
invoking the ancient, ritualistic blood culture
to overwhelm “civilization”

Franz wrote about “The Wretched...”
of those whose lives are unremembered
in the written narrow alleyways we call history books

Ticktock tick tock
on some cosmological scale
our hubris is but a mote unnoticed

Death by our own hands
shiny stainless steel and composite fiber weapons
with crudely written messages- “Hi, mom” & “Lover boyz”

In glory, ah glory, ah to leave no progeny
leaving all on the battle field
in honor, to honor who on the death field?

Only human which we are and nothing more
but the chance of protein imperfectly copying some other life form
random, mutation and finally reaching a premature ending

Sinking into the soil
covered by clover and poppy
the sin of human living finally expunged

Nothing will remain
except the insects that preceded us
their hive mind far superior to the hubris addicted bipedal hairless simians

Our monuments of steel and titanium will rust
but our mental contraptions
will last

Death by disease
the invisible killers that will be in partnership with the arachnids
but will outlast the chitin warriors because they are the building blocks for life redux

If you haven't voted already then vote on Tuesday!

Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

For more information go to the Colorado Democratic Party Voting Headquarters.

Obama's home stretch

From MoveOn.org:

TOP 5 REASONS OBAMA SUPPORTERS SHOULDN'T REST EASY

1. The polls may be wrong. This is an unprecedented election. No one knows how racism may affect what voters tell pollsters—or what they do in the voting booth. And the polls are narrowing anyway. In the last few days, John McCain has gained ground in most national polls, as his campaign has gone even more negative.

2. Dirty tricks. Republicans are already illegally purging voters from the rolls in some states. They're whipping up hysteria over ACORN to justify more challenges to new voters. Misleading flyers about the voting process have started appearing in black neighborhoods. And of course, many counties still use unsecure voting machines.

3. October surprise. In politics, 15 days is a long time. The next McCain smear could dominate the news for a week. There could be a crisis with Iran, or Bin Laden could release another tape, or worse.

4. Those who forget history... In 2000, Al Gore won the popular vote after trailing by seven points in the final days of the race. In 1980, Reagan was eight points down in the polls in late October and came back to win. Races can shift—fast!

5. Landslide. Even with Barack Obama in the White House, passing universal health care and a new clean-energy policy is going to be hard. Insurance, drug and oil companies will fight us every step of the way. We need the kind of landslide that will give Barack a huge mandate.
