Premium Member Signing Up For Philosophy 101

Signing up for philosophy 101

Hi I'm here to sign up for the philosophy course

Why?

Because I have many unanswered questions!

Like what?

What is the meaning of life?

What is life?

I don't know, that's why I'm here

But...are you really here?

I don't know I think so!

What is the proof of your existence?

I have a birth certificate, a Photo ID
.
ok ok  How do I know this is you and not your parallel you from another
parallel universe?

You have to take my word for it!

ok

So how much for the course?

$500 cash only

I don't have cash, I have debit card only

No debit, this is Philosophy school, we only believe in what we see

invisible money is not money!

ok I will have to go to the bank and come back do you have time?

What is time?

It's 5:30pm

no, not what time is it, what is time?

I don't know, that's why I want to take the courseto answer all my questions
Speaking of time what time do classes start?

7am 

That's really early isn't it?

Not really, it's all relative...there are no absolutes...there is no correct answer
it's all true if you believe it!

so I can come at 8am then?

No! absolutely not, classes start 7am sharp!

So then what can I expect to learn about God?

We don't believe in God, God only exists in the minds of the weak. We only believe in what we see.

Ok then ...what about wi fi?

what about it? Do you have it?

Of course we have the highest technology here!

How can you have wi fi if you just said you don't believe in what you can't see?
you can't see it, yet it exists how is that possible?
(Silence)...

Can I bring my notebook?

yes and bring a pen too!

no...I mean my computer

Of course, of course, bring your computer

ok (5 minutes later)

So I'm back with the cash...here's your $500.00

Thank you

Wait a minute! How do you know that's real money?

We have a counterfeit detection system to identify false bills.

You know what! I have a built in counterfeit wisdom detection system
it's called common sense! I changed my mind, I want my money back!

What money? What is money?

My $500.00

Who are you? Do you really exist? Do I exist? Does money exist?

I'm calling the police, tell it to the judge!

Random Chance


Random Chance
by Rick Rucker

Should your love life be selected by Randon Chance?
Is that any way to find True Romance?

Doesn't it mean so much more,
Than casually changing your home's decor?

Tell everyone, that you are looking,
That, for one, only, you are cooking!

In the search, enlist all your friends,
Tell them what you hope for, when the search ends,

Try all of the venues, even electronic,
Sign up for the dating sites, some quite iconic.

I personally favor this method, you see,
Because it is how my True Love found Me!

I signed up, and posted an ad,
I wrote it, and checked it, thought it not bad.

I more or less expected five to ten replies,
When I got more than two hundred, imagine my surprise!

Why did I get more than ten?
Why write to me, not other men?

Now I had a problem , what could I do?
I cancelled the service, now forlorn, and blue!

Two hundred dates, more than twenty eight a day,
Seemed a more dangerous game, than I wanted to play!

I started to try to cut down the list,
Anyone that wrote an answer whose meaning I missed,

I would quickly toss in the trash,
I would do it with feeling, even quite rash!

Finally, at the end of the quest, 
I had done all I could, had done my level best!

I still had twenty five that were left,
At least, with that number, a pile of letters I could heft!

I set a goal, looking back, quite naive,
To find someone, who would, my loneliness, relieve!

That might not sound that hard to do,
But I was looking for My Love Most True!

I wasn't looking for a Date,
But rather, my next Life Long Mate!

With half the applicants remaining there, 
I chanced upon My Lady Fair!

Not just a feast for my eyes,
She stole my Heart, a rude surprise!

I had decided to be quite objective,
I guess my Heart didn't get that directive!

An understaterment, to say I was Smitten!
Quite Fatally, by The Love Bug, bitten!

For some time, we have been going out,
When she can't see me, I still jump and shout!

I never thought I'd be again, 
The Very Happiest of Men!

Now there is but one thing to do,
To make the Fairy Tale come true.

The Hawaiian Wedding Song, Andy Williams will sing,
If I can but convince her to accept my Ring!

The Protraction of the Epiphany

The Protraction of the Epiphany

Complacency in a stilted light of regret
Vagrancy in a jilted sight of neglect 
Emergency in a wilted light of insects
The urgency of a curative substance to inject

Wellsprings of artificial truth and humour 
Hells things accumulate with the modern day consumer
A year in the jungle with the rare black Asian Pumas
A fear and a rumble of a growing brain tumour 

Excerpts of illumination beaming out through a crowd 
Concerts of contamination leaning forward and loud
An old hearse of consecration screaming lines of the Proud 
A written verse of invitation about what is sworn and vowed 

Desert storms inland from the sea 
Crescent forms of moonlight that shine down upon me
Elegant storms of starlight that are too bright to even see
Decadent norms shed for what’s right as you embolden the free

Elevated insights into the passages of time 
Nominated fights about the ravages of crime 
Consecrated rights about the rhythm of a rhyme 
Ill-created sights as we look to the night for a sign 

Refine the moment before you descend from your throne 
Define who owns it as humanity leaves you alone 
Confine who clones it before it hijacks all of your homes
Incline to hone it before the Queen turns to stone 

Perpetuate the intimate and sign up for the next sequel 
Commiserate the consulate before human rights become the prequel 
Eviscerate then integrate as you shout about it from the steeple
Amalgamate then consecrate the water for the people 

Divide the notion of partial responsibility 
Inside the ocean of martial comparability 
Apply the lotion of spatial inter generational exclusivity 
Collide the sojourns of musical improvisational proclivity 

Allow your sorrow to rise up and purge from your system
Now you follow the size of your urge to demystify him
How tomorrow through the eyes of your words make you thin
Bow to the borrowed lies of the absurd man with a grin 

What comprises the ultimate act of integrity?
Hot suprises to formulate the exacts of berevity
Not decided to promulgate the contraction of longevity 
Of the insiders I consummate the protraction of the epiphany

Signing the Dotted Line

i’ve known individuals who never

signed the dotted line---

they never took the $20,000 sign up bonus

&

they never pretended,

lying to themselves beforehand,

that when they were

enlisted,

that it would somehow be “peace time,”

whatever that means. 

 

i’ve known folks who have worked at a

gas station for years to pay off the bills that they

could have easily caught up on,

had they had the salary promised them,

if they had become

professional

hired

killers.

 

and i am well aware that there are those

that say that they had no other way to go to college,

than to join the military.

 

and i am well aware that these scumbag recruiters

prey on the poorest neighborhoods,

often seated right at the bottom of the stairwell of a

subway exit.

 

but i just don’t have any

sympathy for you,

if you have signed that dotted line---

because when you do that,

you are saying that

someday,

somewhere,

you won’t have a problem killing someone whom you have

never

met---

having stolen them from their family,

having taken from them all that was life,

for the purpose of

the

state---

you may even be sitting in an office in

arizona,

as i write this,

“manning” a drone,

that has entered any one of our prospective

targets (victims),

in order to beat them senseless

&

rape their land of their natural

resources.

 

if you come back & they hail you,

you still signed the dotted line.

 

if you come back in a box,

you still signed the dotted line.

 

you are a hired killer the minute that pen hits the paper &

no amount of praying or

“good deeds” when you get home,

will rectify doing so.

 

i have so much more respect for those of us that

work our asses off every day in a country with a decrepit

education system, no universal health care, 14+ million

unemployment, etc. etc.---

because we

stick

it

through---

we will never try and convince ourselves that even the

possibility

of killing someone else

or helping destroy another people’s country

will somehow

solve our own

problems.


A Mate Too Sad

A liars lie is to say you lie 
paint themselves a real nice guy 
Not the people that know them well 
but all the others they go and tell 

It’s done as a preemptive strike 
spreading rumours of what you’re like 
They can’t tell the lies from real life 
and when you talk it don’t sound right 

Twisted truth and so two faced 
want the world to hear their case 
how hard they try to help a fake 
but they can’t and get headaches 

One day once they had a problem 
truth and lie were both an option 
they chose to lie it became often 
now they lie and nothing stops them 

Full commitment to the cause 
Ignorance towards the flaws 
they even give them self applause 
think the world is full of fools 

They sign up for the football team 
and appear in the team pictures 
but every week they lie again 
through injury not featured 

very quickly injury free 
when trophies are in reach 
pride collecting their trophy 
so cringe worthy to see 

What the hell is a medal worth 
when you ain’t put in any work 
or maybe it’s somehow deserved 
effort made saying you are hurt 

Anyhow their lying now 
saying you’re someone they doubt 
making sure they bring you down 
so they’re left alone standing proud 

They will give you a weakness 
one opposite to their strengths 
run you down for failing like this 
their skill you’re up against 

So in their head they can beat you 
they make it up as they need too 
forgetting telling someone you know 
talking lies that clearly show

You don’t behave the way they say 
you just don’t operate that way
it is isn’t you they put on display 
So don’t believe a word they say 

but liars think their lie has worked 
even when they lie the worst 
it’s their skill and it’s their worth 
they speak and all believe what’s heard 

They call it delusions of grandeur 
Self absorbed and out to slander 
done to gain the upper hander 
think they are the grand commander

Shocks them hard being found out 
they stick to lies without doubt 
it means that they can’t be found 
they deserve a roundhouse 

You can con yourself 
that no one is aware 
until you’ve no one else 
with nobody who cares.

knows nothing more

A woman sitting in an old house herself,
counting paper clips.

Every day, was a creaking workday
that reminded her addiction was in freedom—
meanings of being young, being old,
being in love with the back then.

She’s not a fan of
not being a fan of new movies.
But who can blame her
for blaming herself?

A helicopter that flies
over the barren desert land to the hospital,
where young boys crash motorcycles
and old men remember their dead.

A wall of silence no longer there
signifies hatred
now bungled within today.

Then you see the age
when television is history—
not a history channel
beyond Hegelians trying to memorize
systems to perfection.

Inside lost dreams of charities
that lost funding—unserviceable minds
that lurk in moons
trying to be seen without desperation.

Desperate to no longer be desperate
with sly strokes of sublimation meeting
meaning that doesn’t understand
yet works very hard to know better—
knows nothing more
than culminated condensation
dripping toward a small valley to move down.

Or an activity to sign up for
on a schedule at your community center.

Bingo! said the American,
afraid of being themselves
and longs for Paris—
mugged on a street
with their granddaughter watching,
when cops sprang from the doors—
nobody was left to watch.

—An emotional angst to pull back,
a wish for love in pure space-time.

An evangelist to tell you what to do,
one that is just spiritual
with the same frame.

I don’t wish for you to drag your breakfast into dinner,
or scream water in a lonely sea,
where all that is left to do
is doing nothing, nothing—

Being distant from trees,
closer to the bunker.

It’s hard to go easy
and easier to run,
sweeter to give it all away
and uglier to be unforgiven by givers.

These spirits are also amusement parks
who don’t care for safety.

If you expect them to wonder,
they force you to stare at our sun.

If you try to stop,
they slowly guide you back without knowledge.

Then one day
you’re sitting in a basement
wondering where all time went,

How your body turned—
and now all you see
is your dead uncle in the mirror.

Premium Member Let the Animal Band Commence

Animal kingdom was invited to join the forest meadow
Band orchestrated by the deniable dictator, diabolical gorilla king
Causing loads of premature bragging from delighted grand-animals.
Deliriously enthusiastic orangutans began to show off their voice prowess.
Excited flocks, herds, and murders flooded to the pre-set sign up spot.
Furiously signing up offspring, and occasionally a non-mothered village orphan.
Giraffe’s heads appeared beside the treetops, sticking out willy-nilly.
Haphazardly, eagles, owls, and songbirds sat among the leafy, sparkly greening branches.
I was smoothly hidden high in the Sycamore tree with a few cardinals.
Jealous zebras began stomping and spitting, thinking they were not going to get their “due”.
Kind mother opossum tried in vain to do a little conflict mediation, wanting unity and peace.
Lackadaisical sloth took a seat in the branch ten feet above my head, making my branch shake.
Maestro Moran, the appointed organizer, a giant Mammoth gave out assigned places.
Newly arriving animals began choosing partners; not realizing band is solitary.
Old Timer Orangutans began donating band equipment they no longer used, mikes too.
Puma is not invited Brother Bear yelled, stating that Puma always caused trouble in night class
Quintessential beaver suggested we give baby Puma a chance and a few agreed.
Raccoons who disagreed began slapping each other upside the head, like the three stooges.
Sh! A few animal mothers began to hiss.  Few of us heard them, as they were not loud enough.
Too many were speaking to hear, and animal chaos seemed to be the order of the day.
Unification nowhere in sight, I stayed put, hoping I was fully hidden.  The Zebras were still grumbling.
Very intelligent leaders assess things quickly, and Maestro Mammoth was no dummy.
“Walrus, wolf, toad, and beaver will pick out instruments for students first through 6th,” he announced.
“Xylophones for all of the kindergarten students.” Cheers went all around the forest meadow.
Yippee for the music teacher! Someone yelled. I am not sure if it was a wolf or an orangutan.
“Zebra’s choice!” Maestro announced. Band practice had begun!

One day I woke up sick

For context, I'm almost 22.
I got sick at 18. 
It's not like cancer or M.S., I'm not going to die. 
But there's no explanation for the reason why I got sick. 
Nobody knows, not me, not my doctor, not the specialists.
Mum thinks it's because I left home too young. 
Dad thinks I have too much anxiety and I'm sick because of it. 
My fianceé thinks maybe I'm reacting to my birth control or to natural hormones. 
I think I woke up one day and I was sick.
It went just like that. Waking up one day with my stomach turning inside out.
Shoulders heaving for hours every morning, 
Curled up on the floor of the bathroom, protesting the muscle convulsions.
I woke up this way every morning for over a year and no specialist could tell me why.
All I know is I'm sick. 
My fianceé didn't sign up to be a caregiver,
Yet somehow he's thrown into the part. 
Today, if I travel, I wake up sick. If I stay at a friend's house, I wake up sick. Often, when everything is normal, I still get sick. 
I wake up at either midnight, 02:00am, or 05:00am and there is no hope of sleep until at least noon.
There is overwhelming nausea, dizziness, muscles contracting violently and burning. 
There are my teeth which seem to be wearing away from my stomach acid. 
There is the feeling that if this has to be my life now, i don't want to live it. 
It's been 3 years since I had a single day without pain.
I pop ribs out of place as I vomit, so even after the nausea subsides I'm left sore and often bedridden.
My fianceé tries to ask how he can help, 
And I'm sent into an emotional spiral.
"You can't help. I can't help me, my doctors can't - i don't want to do this tomorrow morning. I don't wanna wake up tomorrow if it'll be another day of this. I wanna give up."
Today, I want to give up. I want the burning muscles to stop. I want to be able to eat something other than applesauce mixed with water and not throw it up. 
This doesn't feel like a life anymore. 
I just wanna get better already. 
I pray to whatever God listens that I get better. 
I cannot do this forever.

The God Reset

The God Reset

All Hail the mega-Temple brokers!
The Heavenly stock sellers
Chomping at the bit
Who parade in their Gucci suits
Escorting you comfortably
(like Kings)
Into “the Kingdom”come.
Beware: 
Its a counterfeit kingdom
Not the real deal.
(Love money, much?
 (Oh, but we won’t really actually tell you if we don't think you'd be a good “asset” in “our" Kingdom--)
They seem like they know something
You don’t know-- their words seem so godly,
Their knowledge of spiritual things so impressive-but then you hear them prognosticate:
“And did you know, 
A ‘powerful message’ can be yours if you only throw
 a few shekels our way today?”
(of course, they don’t exactly say it that way)
Coming straight from GD!
And advocate for a Kingdom that runs on cash.
They’ll happily seat you in
The First row, 
Sell you a religious show,
Put the God mirror out in front 
Of your sorry old face and sell
Repentance.
And then, when you repent, (properly and self-consciously)
they’ll grab you by the shoulders,
Hug you, and then ask you if you
Want to join the church...
“Looks like a Winner”, they silently intone, as you
Reach for your wallet.
Now they’ve sold you a 
False Christ.
And you weren’t even in on the deal!
You thought you were sincere!
You didn’t sign up for a 
Dead-end religion that would steal your
Joy, and maybe even your new-found love for GD-
You signed up for a 
New Life.
Beware of the status-quo christians,
The little”c” christians
The walking dead, 
Frozen Chosen
Lack of real emotion,
Preaching a gospel
Of “Cultural Churchianity”.
It’s not the real
thing-- the Christ-centered gospel that 
Calls for a clean heart, and a
Clear conscience--
A gospel that has nothing to do with 
The brand of your clothes, the number 
Of dollars in your Bank Account,
The car in your garage, or the paid-off mortgage!
Wake up,
Heaven Brokers!
Your “stock” is rapidly falling,
And Christ is getting tired of calling
Cuz you hung up your gD- phone long ago,
When you let greed and fame 
Consume your soul.
