Premium Member Wilderness Survival Tip - Fire

As a talisman around my neck, I wear a glass magnifier.
Now where ever and whenever there is sun, I can make myself a fire
and cook food I have scavenged to kill any harmful bacteria,
or boil water free of all parasites that can cause dysentery and diarrhea,
or for the warmth my body needs to prevent possible hypothermia,
or as protection from any local life threatening wild predators.
As an added precaution I also always carry a disposable lighter,
in case darkness falls upon me before I can make my campfire,
but I only use my disposable lighter very rarely.
because it will run out of fuel eventually
and anytime I need fire when fire can't be
is an official life threatening fire emergency.
You won't have any chance of surviving in the wilderness successfully
if you don't make harnessing Fire your number one priority.

A Lovers Throw

I only know you as chlorophyll and sunshine, 
Because I come from earth, mineral and dusk, 
But I go beyond the here and now in cline, 
Like armies go some place else, they must. 

If you were dysentery I would lay with you, 
And wake, needing to know about your waste, 
I’ll disturb your genealogy and what you do, 
And savour in my mouth your pleasant taste. 

What you want to do is energy and cause, 
And you’ll get there ‘cos you’ll cry and veer, 
Seize my teeth or else they’ll offer applause, 
Because I’m thinking of you always in here. 

One moment, you,  
Next second, you do, 
In my room, yourself, 
In my heart, health. 

In the morning you wake me, 
To my occupation you take me, 
Day by day you make me, 
Week by week you stake me. 

I love you Darlin’.

Fever

A man with no fingers
waves his fingers at me.
My third day of amoebic dysentery
and though my yellow eye
can see, they see what they choose to.

The guy is not a feverish delusion,
he comes to my house
every morning to sweep my veranda.
I hear my young wife
scolding our Siamese cat,
its brought another snake home,
Chiang Mai abounds with them,

but today my skin is crawling enough.
The guy with no fingers – just stubs,
goes under the house
to hunt for larger snakes;
the house is on stilts
and I imagine his head
under my cot.
his skull is slowly blooming.
leprosy flowers are sprouting 
from the hole at the top of his head.

The word ‘puce’ will always
make me think of puss from now on.
From now on
I buy only red flowers for my wife.

There is hardly any blood-letting
at the leprosy institute
just a slow wearing a way of dry flesh,
and me with a fever
that will return forty years later.

Tropical Ohio lasts for some days.
I imagine the cot, the mosquito nets,
a slow moving fan too high above
to save me from a febrile drowning;
then the serpent in my brain
passes away from lack of sleep
and an excess of chicken broth.

Crazy Dialogue Between Father and Son

- Junior piece of acephalus
       go to sleep !
      "If you do not do what I tell you,
        I'm going to give you serious bronchitis ...!
        And if I do, I'll give you a headache.
        followed by migraine ...!
       your face of stroke ...!
     "Father, today you're a maniac,
       manic-depressive...
      - I do not know  bucephalus, it's this virus
        that circulates around ... this one of
        neurasthenia...?
      "What's the matter with you, have you otitis?"
      - Not father, it's because of cramps ...
      - Cramps, this is your sister's thing!
      - It's not that father, it was something I ate ...
      - Again eating  ...!
      -Take this stopper, go ... and go.
       sleep later ... take some tsetse flies
        to the bedroom you soon sleep ....
      - Dad, I'm using another method.
        more natural! I loose the lambs.
        who are stuck in the closet and start
        to count ... and you, your constipation
        How do you do ...?
     "Now, you little , I use a little
       of poison extracted from the Amazonian toad ...
       it's shot and fall ... I die instantly,
       I mean sleep instantly ...!
      "And poor mother, father!"
        always with their anxiolytics ...
     - It's your mother always with her methods
       pseudo scientists, this medicine
       allopathic ... with nothing!
       It's this passiflora, serene, sleep well,
       all natural ... Legal is your sister,
       who sleeps all night only with
       the hammer I put on her head ...
     - Steel hammer, father ...!?
     "What, nothing, rubber hammer, these
       of disassembling car body ...
     - Good evening, schizophrenic father!
     - Good evening your diarrhea ... or better
      that scientific word dysentery ... he, he, he,
      I do not know... !

Premium Member Come With Me To Jesus

1. Facing life courageously with eyes downcast
happiness and peace not part of the forecast
amidst proud siblings, the only one timid
uncertainty in the air, densely humid
fine drink for all but taking a thimbleful
for true protection, the gods get my handful
glued to excuses and flaws of temperaments
leaving the ungodly to make side comments.

Chorus
I run to the highest hills
I hide in the deepest caves
I put my trust on strong men
I breath the words of great kings
When I stumble and fall down
Jesus alone gives His hand
[Repeat]

2. Powers of men become diversionary
many unreal strengths, claiming to tonify
following masked demons to drop in centers
to acquire, to hold but nowhere rustic
drinks all to suffer spiritual dysentery
from a castle, jumping to a rotunda
to the things of God, becoming a rascal
a walking tapir in the midst of Tigers.

Chorus
I run to the highest hills
I hide in the deepest caves
I put my trust on strong men
I breath the words of great kinds
When I stumble and fall down
Jesus alone gives His hand
[Repeat]

3. He has suffered it all in his first coming
can come of age his glorious second coming
it is never too late by his reckoning
now is the time to have a rite of passage
men can brag and make you have a reverie
other gods can fight to seem in rivalry
but run to him for the clear and blameless dress
for when its time, his glow no one can repress.

Chorus
I run to the highest hills
I hide in the deepest caves
I put my trust on strong men
I breath the words of great kinds
When I stumble and fall down
Jesus alone gives His hand
[Repeat]

Pipe Dreaming Democracy

Today’s a day that’s supposedly filled with political rhapsody/
Yet I sit down and write these words in full spiritual apathy/
I rather be electing a leader whose ideas can capture me/
Chattel ghosts are after me so I can’t afford to be an absentee/
That’s the way it has to be. Many died for my right to choose/
Even if I don’t like the dudes, I must vote, despite the mood/
Despite my feelings that elections do little to bring changes/
Choosing sadists with king wages as their armies sing praises/ 
Imitation sages. Thinking their group rhetoric is visionary/
Ideas as basic as having sex in positions missionary/
Political dysentery. This system has always been infected/
Vote’s been subjective since the first slave owner’s been elected/ 
I’ve been neglected and I don’t have the dough to get noticed/
One of the faceless voters. A pawn used in racist quotas/
I face disorder but I’m weighed down by a chaotic tapestry/
Guilty of blasphemy as I elect the next masonic majesty/
The honest travesty is the reality that we’re all expendable/ 
The poor’s reprehensible as the rich’s laws are extensible/
Democrats more sensible? They all come blunt? I doubt it/
Republicans don’t like me. At least they’re up front about it/
Our wisdom’s clouded. We can’t see their both on the same team/
With the same dream/ 
Get as much as they can then wipe the slate clean/
This bipartisan system doesn’t allow new voices to surface/
The powers that be, when faced with new choices, get nervous/
They’re hired to serve us, but we transformed them into royalty/
Despite what we feel morally, parties demand total loyalty/ 
Pay raises quarterly as their conduct grows more disorderly/
Abhorring me and the very few civil laws supporting me/
I don’t mean to be apathetic about the electoral process/
Keeping tabs on the government is an acceptable obsess/
A myth like Lochness? Is Democracy just a pipe dream?/
I must vote to find out. No matter how pointless it might seem...
