no prize for you

no prize for you

first off
what do i want to say?
what do i want the goal to be?
what do i want to accomplish?

i want to do something worthy of existence
i want to do something about the collapse of civilsation
i want to do something healthy

then excercise - you dont now
then eat right - you dont now
then give more to your relationships - you dont now

ok thats not what i really want then
i want fame
i want fortune
i want force

thats what my appetite desires

so what do i know?

extraordinary wealth is created by theft
theft from nature - resource extraction - $2 to produce a barrel of oil
theft from life - agriculture - $2 brazilian rain forest non productive
dairy cow hamburger
theft from soul - prostituion - $2 a day for haitian working in
dominican republics sugar can farm
theft from death - war - peaceful death stolen to acquire resources to
finance the cost of the war, the cost of reconstruction, and the cost of
the interest
theft in usury - mortgage the americans people children to force the
iraqis to mortgage their children (force the seller to sell, and the
buyer to buy)
theft in ideas - search engines - content creators not compensated for
their work

that extraordinary wealth attracts more thieves who seek to steal from
the first thieves

how does warren buffet or bill gatess fit? what did they steal? their
immense wealth is not the result of a fair deal.

the franchisee
the investor
the patsy

theft and oppression go hand and hand

such that oppression is often required for the theft to occur - give me
your wallet or else
working as muscle in the shakedown is little more than a living, as the
thief you work for will always steal from you

a very dark picture of the human psyche
but it is a zero sum game

A parade of seasons: birth betrayal burial

Narrator: I am the narrator. Before you a prison. A king collects
prisoners and territory to take more territory and more prisoners. The
prisoners work for the king to give him more victory.
What fuels the war is the power from the newly conquered lands.
As long as some peasants live to work the land, and the enemy soldiers
killed or imprisoned the empire grows larger.

Are you not the dream of my soul?

simon peter: all day, all night, I dream of power, wealth and fame

Matthew luke mohammad: I don't need that. I just want to be loved by
two or three beautiful women that drive me insane. And when I come
home from, are they not waiting for me?

Abraham Joshua: I want to make, to build, to leave my mark carved into
the intoxicating flesh of the earth

Mark Joel: breathe in the suffering of the world. The sacrifice of the
innocent, nothing is better. Is this not seperates man from beast? Not
language, not brain size, not tools, not self awareness. Empathy. We
lack it. We can torture. We can imprison. We can enslave. We can tax
without representatin.

the most important things i know

Bob: what are the most important things i know?
Bill: how do you define important?
Bob: stuff that could save your life? your childrens life? stuff that if you knew could save your life?
Bill: how about stuff that if you know makes life worth living? makes life seem a little more meaningful?
Bob: ok
Bill: we are star shit.
Bob: huh?
Bill: our staff was born in a huge explosion and we are the crap it didn't need to live.
Bob: knowing that makes your life better?
Bill: perspective is everything.
Bob: what else do you know?
Bill: we are physically made out of star shit and everything that lives, is alive because of energy from the sun. the sun is the creator and source of all life. without solar radiation there would be no life.
Bob: how is this relevant? knowing that makes my life worth living?
Bill: you are directly related to that star shining in the sky - in every possible way.
Bob: so? your point is?
Bill: your family history is billions of years old.
Bob: i thought you were going to tell me about global warming, sea level rising, radioactive waste, drug resistant bacteria, ozone holes, co2 levels, plastic ocean pollution, farm land erosion, and fresh water depletion?
Bill: what can i say about? human population will crash, but civilization will exist, but totally different from today
Bob: why?
Bill: its what we are making.

the here and now

if truth wasn't so painful then i wouldn't need fantasy
i wouldn't need books, computers, movies
but i do
and these are my painful truths
these are the things that hurt me
here, listed plain, without artifice

failure - as in one so in all...

01 friend
02 husband
03 father
04 entrepreneur
05 dj
06 son
07 lover
08 writer
09 historian
10 singer
11 driver
12 inventor
13 producer

in exchange for truth i got only lies

those books i checked out from the library
i will return them all
unread

i protest - how can i excel in all 13?

as i have counselled others - so i must counsel myself
give me your days, weeks, months
let's divide them up between all the things you
value most

sweetness and light come from none other than the dead

sweetness and light come from none other than the dead
the recently dead
and the long dead
as always we need to honour them and their
life and death
that granted us what we enjoy today

taste and see the flavour is good

so what we do we mean by that

we mean this
and nothing else

how about this

use youtube
open two tabs in your internet browser
now search in youtube
for artie shaw and begin the beguine
and in the next tab open justin timberlake and my love

and what else do we get from the dead?

hungboo and norboo
swing low sweet chariot

how fantastic grass are

how fantastic grass are

golden brown
baked to perfection
by the sun
on the prairie

drinking the sun and the rain and the moon and the stars and the sky

they grow tall and thin and yummy

their kernels
their grains

so sweet
so nutty

how fantastic grass are
