Diplomacy and the Irresolute Alternative
without anchor all ships sail and without passenger no captain exists to guide the dispossessed. Only remains of Peaceful Assembly can be glimpsed in the association of favoritism. A favoritism of familiarity deflecting contempt by means of ineptitude....

His face changed and he was instantly angry. She did not waste any more time with him. Brainwashing for him was obviously complete....

I slowly awake to a place that seems out of this world where nothing clicks or matches with anything familiar I find myself walking on clouds while above me trees grow upside down along with grasses and flowering plants I looked around finding that animals were keeping me company grazing on clouds or just floating long sides there were birds singing sweetly So peaceful,...

It is an alternative fact, she says. Interpretation: It is a lie. Walter Cronkite would be horrified. That she used that term on national television. There are no alternative facts, only facts. An alternative fact is a lie, a fib, a misinterpretation. Unfortunately, as long as any station can use the word NEWS Without checking accuracy or facts, this inane idiocy might...

Are We Selling An Alternative That Is Flawed In Most Cases
If my Mothers life pointed to a way forward, Without the need for drugs, Or an excuse to dwell on the unfairness of life. If my Fathers life pointed to how to get by, even with a chip on your shoulder, And not crash and burn, Despite all life throws at you. If my life with all its testing times...

The Importance of the Alternative Perspective
Importance of the Alternative Perspective Contortions of my sentient being Distortions of my inclinations to dream Proportions of truth deciphering what it all means Abortions of opinion as things are not always as they seem Embellishments of truth displayed on the evening news An inelegance that’s uncouth waiting for uncivilised cues An epiphany of untold magnitude seen in awestruck...
