Premium Member Two Cats Eyes View

Hi you guys we're Smokey and Jinky
two cats we are Scottish born
one of us is grey, the other jet black
bright and bushy tailed in the morn

Now we lived in the lovely countryside
so free, staying out there on a farm
occupiers were farmworker and his wife
had only son Gordon their only arm

He was a good boy really liked us
no no!, was totally loving S and J
we lay at night at bottom of his bed
so sweet and comfy till the new day

We would sit on the window ledge
Gordon always looked for us there
letting us in out of the cold
so often to be warm inside care

We're now up in our heavenly land
where we often think of days gone by
our buddy Gordon took us in his heart
united we all were boycats! so don't cry!

(Smokey(grey) and Jinky(black) were two cats we had at home on our cottage by a farm, being my two real friends.)

Premium Member The Moral Corruption of Capitalism

The Bible says "thou shalt not kill"
now proudly join the army lad, and go kill,
come back home, and follow your Bible again.

O middle class, your fathers built your homes
with union help, now disperse those union halls
and happily work for minimum wage, six days a week,
chant bribed politicians working for hidden oligarchs
reaping 100 million dollar bonuses, crowded apartments
will suffice.

O Appalachians, your once proud mountaintops now
miles of desert, debauched by profiteers, unbridled by
regulations written by lobbyists, clothed in frothing
chemicals, drowning your despair in burgeoning liquor
stores.

O beautiful blufflands, along my Mississippi,
 I see you now, your royal crowns
decapitated,
your limestone sand greedily slurped by
frac-monster gargoyles wearing saville row suits,
entombed in New York skyscrapers.

O broken occupiers, etch your days in Heaven, 
on your jail cell wall.
Truths, all truths, build slowly,
but truth must fight on, for your children's children
will know you tried to save our people and planet!

...we must fight on!

                            ....we will!

Premium Member Dissident Outcry

Dissenters dominate the streets,
	The public dominion of demonstrations.
This POTUS threatens military domination.
             Just forget the pesky First Amendment.
Sowing seeds of civil war
                   The best path to reelection.
Yet remonstrations rally relentless,
	       One man’s terminal chokehold
A symbol of structural racism.
A metaphor for the socioeconomic suffocation,
	       The clamor and commotion 
torn and tormenting in every town. 
	Protestors street hue and cry,
	       voices of the marginalized and forgotten	.
	A human chain of disputant dissentients, 
		Occupiers striking for a new order.
Rebels demanding 
                a new systemic justice.

Vikings and Islam

Vikings and Islam 
Way back in the 7 hundred or something when 
Islam leaders tried to establish a Caliphate in 
Europe, they met Vikings who were plundering 
their way down the river of Volga and often 
employed the barbaric Norsemen to do a bit of
plundering on their behalf. 
A few Vikings converted, when coming home
they spoke about the evil of fermented drink
and it took hold, even when Islam, the religion, 
was forgotten the idea of sobriety lingered and
has had a deep influence in Nordic Societies 
ever since. Well, the Moslems are back, not as
occupiers, but one wishes, on Saturday nights, 
a bit of sober Islam would be remembered.

Premium Member 'occupation' Troops

Guess I'll ne'er understand those loony loons

   Shaking their fists at the Wall Street tycoons

      The Tea Party did it right

         They didn't leave filth and blight

            'Occupiers' remind me of baboons

Golden Army

The sunset is beautiful thing
About it sonnet they can sing
But this sunset is of ancient king
And his eerie persona changes everything

The golden army he would create
But to disappear long before Christ was born was his fate
The armies’ power was great
And the king governed large estate

The world war two came
Germans would kill and maim 
The partisans would fight back just the same
Destroying German supply was their aim

In modern times under pines there is old unmarked grave
Of a lost partisan that fought so brave
And who his life for freedom gave
For brighter day and future for his children to save

If at war time golden army was alive
In those difficult days it would thrive
And very quickly occupiers away it would drive
Being more ferocious than hornets invading bee hive

Looking at the grave underneath pine and poplar in which wind would sing
The mother of lost soldier hears of ancient king
She would give anything
To see her son alive her heart would sing

Under the light of full moon
Singing white roses sorrowful tune
Wearing long clothes that make her look like a goon
She crosses the forest street to grave where lays her son the tribune

The ancient king would use math
To create genetic soldiers that would unleash their wrath
To destroy enemies who with him were on war path
It was combination of higher consciousness, genetics, magic and math

That what made his power so sublime
Is that he was master of time
He would use special enzyme
To generate his soldiers that did not fear the very time




But king died long ago
Before his army against his foes would go
For mother of the partisan it was a sad thing to know
Remembering it later as she stood by the grave through rain and snow

She learned about this secret during the war
If than she could have than bring the golden army to the war
It would be bizarre
Ending to the war

Somewhere in pine forest before the grave woman is sitting
For her lost son she is weeping
She is seen by someone who tries to recreate experiment of the king
But for her son is too late to do anything

Premium Member 'free Speech'

'Occupiers' closed Oakland port last night

   Don't they realize that ain't very bright

      Nuts and fruits are shipped from there

         So a caution should they care

            They could be shipped to get them outta sight

(Just exercising my 'free speech' rights as well!)

Not just do to; do with:
Do with others as you politically and economically expect and hope with others.

Not just do with; do with each Eternal Moment,
as has always been done with you
and your Elders still flowing within you,
as always will become done with
throughout this eternal
love-life giving
is also receiving
moment.

Resiliently do with others,
as empowering
and co-invested eco-logical you
responsibly expect 
and responsively hope 
with others.

Not just others; 
but all non-Othered others,
living and dead,
and future generations,
regenerations
of not only our species
but all species living on and in Earth's Integral Garden.

Resonantly do
and speak
and listen with all co-arising others,
as polyculturally
and inter-religiously informed you
win/win expect 
and synergetically hope 
with sympathetic others.

Not just pathetically expect Othering

retributions,
complicated relationships, 
competitive transactions
and miscommunications

but expect co-empathic re-connecting

re-ligioning trust 
re-evolving healthy win/win truths

optimizing cooperative and peaceful relationships
of co-passionate intent

expect gratitude 
to communicate our holistic relationships

Trust in all life-loving organic others,

Cost Effective

Cost Effective.  

Norway was a poor country her main income came from shipping, those 
who manned ships worked long hours, saw their families every two years.
 A didactic system built around the trade, there was opportunity to go to 
school and become an officer; back then it counted for dependability. 
 Oil was found in the North Sea, shipping, now less important and the flag, 
seamen sailed under, became internationalised, this meant that seafarers 
from abroad were hired to do our job for less pay. Men and officers were 
thrown off their ships, an industry died. Few noticed or wrote about it.
The beginning of globalisation. When the middle classes too were sourced 
out the people woke up, by then it was too late and land based industry too 
collapsed. They said we priced ourselves out of work, not so shipping made 
 money, they wanted to make much more, as the financial thinking shifted, 
wealth counted and not the duty towards an equal society. Maybe occupiers 
of Wall Street have seen a light. Must we wait till Polish seamen are not cost 
effective enough and it will be cheaper to hire us?

Gaza Sonnet

Gaza Sonnet  
A doctor`s house with two daughters in it came
Under artillery fire while he who worked at the hospital in Gaza
 Trying to save life after yet another Israeli attack, lost both 
 His children, the military late apologized.
After the funeral, the good doctor did not seek help for his
Immense suffering but carried on working while 
Grief unburdened was eating him up.
One day he went to the beach the sea was calm and turquoise 
 He undressed and began swimming he had to get away 

A strong swimmer he swam long before an Israeli gunboat 
Blew him out of the water, red turned to pink and then
Back to calming azure as the warped thinking of the occupiers 
Said go he should have sought psychological help 
For sorrow so deep that no well-meaning words would assuage

The Life of a War Horse

The Life of a War Horse 
The horses I remember as a child were very big working horses, 
not nervous like race horses who need a rub down and soft words 
before racing. I remember specially a giant tanned coloured horse 
left behind after the Nazi occupiers, it was a victim of war. 

The Nazi leaders who were fonder of animals than people, just like 
the British, had given the horse an animal iron cross, and had its 
flanked and neck stroked by Herman Goering no less; but  it was 
never taken in by this barmy philosophy. 

Alas, the horse belonged to a survivor in Holland, it was shipped to 
the Middle East ploughing soil that hitherto had been tilled, by grey 
donkeys, ploughing shallow sandy soil. Than it happened having been 
exposed to so many confusing ideologies the horse bolted and kicked  
the farmer to death. There was a court case it was proven the horse 
was racially biased and sentenced to become legitimate dog food.

Gaza Sonnet
A doctor`s house with two daughters came under artillery fire
while he who worked at the hospital in Gaza
Trying to save life after yet another Israeli attack, lost both
His children, the military late apologized.
After the funeral, the good doctor did not seek help for his
Immense suffering , but carried on working while
grief unburdened was eating him up.
One day he went to the beach the sea was calm and blue
He undressed and began swimming he had to get away
A strong swimmer he swam long before an Israeli gunboat
blew him out of the water, red turned to pink and then
ack to calming azure as the warped thinking of the occupiers
said go he should have sought psychological help
For sorrow so deep that no well-meaning words suffice

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

The apparent insanity of inmates
and prisoners
and addicts, conspiracy theorists and paranoids,
does not prove,
nor necessarily even suggest,
the keepers are not also self-entitled nuts
with unhealthy powers,
narcissistic self-serving authorities,
delegated detached responsibilities
primally loyal to ratchet race competitions.


Passion Story

When you are crucified, naked, poor
and occupied by RomanRed yangish powerful voices
and Loser commodity values,
unhealthy fought and sold colonizing authorities,
irresponsible fury-power occupiers,
violators of healthy green peace objectives
applicable to any sanctuary
with humane organic embodied rituals and behaviors
yet still WinLose divine punishing evolution-machine minded,
then we have all become historic asylum invited
to purge messianic homeless egos
perpetually hanging on HolonicSpirit's centering Earth-cross,
rather than remain comparatively imprisoned by traumas
to the disassociating left or right cross of hopelessness.

Health History Story

A. Earth was born, still, flat, without form and ZeroCentric void.
B. S/he remains newborn and young,
springing organic life
WinWin preferential solidarity with all EarthTribe,
inmate prey and predative keepers.
C. S/he still grows mature healthy Heavenly summer sun
over nurturing MotherEarth,
sacred/secular health/wealth care conjoined.
D. S/he co-emerges Northern revolutionary Yang/Yin bicameral,
bilateral healthstream co-arising poly-paths,
-phonics,
-cultures,
-nomial maps,
-meme messages,
-asylums for growing non-sectarian communal nutrition.

One Flew Into the Communion NestEgg

See "Health History Story" above
The apparent stillborn insanity of original patriarchal residents
need not predict
Yang/Yin co-redeeming caregivers
are not also ego- v eco-logical sanctuary sociopaths
sabotaging our own potential opportunities
for polypathic sacred communion passions.

Ego laying
and nesting
and active resting
and birthing
and raising
and lowering
back into EcoAsylum's non-sectarian EarthPeace nest.

Madagascar Christmas

I
The elders speak of a special healer
In their times of trouble
Their country was overrun by "others"
And women and children felt frustrations
Men could not vent upon Occupiers
In their slavery to others, cruelty ruled
And one widow, or outcast wife, suffered
More than others. she had a disease
Not leprosy, yet cast out: Don't touch me!
She heard of the special healer, saw Hope
Waited day after day to find a way to him

II
The healer had no qualms touching & praying
With, and for, the castaway, wrapped in blood
She followed the healer to the end, gratitude
Is easy if you are an exile, the worst "other"
Many were healed, men were taught duties
Of real family men, forgiven but instructed
As best teachers practice: message from High On
Only this Woman came to the Healers tomb
Because elites and blessed people are hard
They lose Ubuntu, humanity & civilization easily
But celebrate stories from Madagascar, Mali, Maya --
Because they do not have a stake in strange places
If the healer is called Jesus, some people turn purple
