Poem
I was reading Trump's Crippled America the other day... I'm sorry to interrupt, but why? Isn't his Unreality Show more than taxing enough already? Well, more than sufficient, actually, but I was trying to figure out what he believes a non-gimpy America would look like. Fascist scary, am I right? Like a pilot for yet another dystopian vampire series. Anyway, he keeps describing himself as not only a rich man but a nice man. But not a crippled good man. Right. I've heard him declare some of his relatives are good. And then there were the Nazis in Virginia, also some good people there. Just having a bad day at the same time in the same unfortunate little place by coincidence, but good people, with democratically healthy intentions. Probably reminds him of his Republican Party. He says he is rich and nice; but does not say he is good or could become better, or in any way ego crippled, fractured by love for innocence of intimate life as gift. I don't suppose he's just being coy. I see Trump as coy even less than Trump as nice. He all but uses the word "bully" describing how he ended up in military school, where he also had unspecified issues. Didn't we call those reform schools back in the day of childhood self-righteousness? No, dear, reform schools were supposed to be about education to restore sanity. Military school is about going the other insane direction, polyunsaturated war-mongering and ballistic bully threats against foreign property, which, unfortunately, includes people and their pets. And livestock, gardens and farms, food and fiber and spiritual philosophy. Unworthy causes for erections and elections for some not so nice people. Like un-reformed bullies? Like over-fertilized monoculturing bullies writing contracts out against Crippled America. That doesn't sound good. Or nice. Or even particularly rich for that matter. I wonder if too much money, in an aggressively colonizing capital-infested culture leads to too much power to do even more aggressive violence against natural-spiritual riches of Earth and Her Heavenly ways and means, cooperative design and intelligent equi-lateral nutritional planning. I wonder if rich WesternWhite men who hope they are becoming more refined, nicer bullies, but won't even pretend to be good, are any more likely to become good healthy humans than to pass through the crippled eye of a discerning wu-wei needle. Crippled eyes to stand in solidarity with the rest of us sinners doing our best to learn powers of love over nice and rich bullying evil.
