Another Year Passed

I shall rain hellfire on my enemies,
acid their skin and boil their blood.
I will scorch the earth
and destroy man's inclinations.

Creators of social norm
and dictators of progress,
you are a pall on the human race.
We are all worthy of respect.
We are all worthy of acceptance.
We are all man, one and the same.

Upon this eve as I pack up and move on,
and leave behind a year's worth of life,
I can't help but see how you've changed me.
Time you are a foolish old man who's lost track of himself.
You are bane to my existence.
And yet we continue onwards in a marriage of temporal irregularity,
never ceasing, never returning, always moving on.

Mystery of the unknown, you mock me.
Your affixed hand clutching at the contents of my brain,
stewing about in my thoughts
and running amok with my life.

It's time to go and I'm not willing.
But as time permits I say good-bye,
as tradition dictates, it will be solemn and dignified,
and as the shroud of what's to come continues to blind me,
I look back over these past months and see.
Another year gone without much fanfare,
and so I move on into the future,
to do so again all over again,
whenever time loses it's mind again.

Timelessly,

FLYFREEFOREVER!

Reagan, Deregulation, and the Fruit It Now Bears

President Reagan had an idea about how the world should run. He deregulated Big Business. That is, he removed the restrictions put in place that kept companies from cheating. He removed, primarily economic oversight. He said that it was unAmerican that in this capitalist society that such oversight, such restrictions should exist. To him, these concepts flew in the face of that illusive, figmentary idea we like to call freedom. He wanted Big Business to have the freedom to do what it will and believed that in doing so, said companies would check themselves. They would check themselves because it was in their best economic interest to do so. Yet, what he didn't realize is that what was in the best interest of Corporate America could be unknown to Corporate America itself! That Big Business could be akin to a compulsive gambler who as they fall further and further into the hole panic and begin making riskier and riskier bets, thus then subjecting themselves to even more debt ...

My Last

 My previous post was found as a blank page in draft form this evening.  I found the existence of it to be rather poetic.  So I published it blank as is over a year later.  Seems fitting to be honest.

There's a Reason Why There Are No Good Politicians

That is to say there is a reason why there are no politicians with genuine interests at heart. Genuine interests can be defined as points of view on which you are inflexible to opposition. For instance, you are either for human rights or you're not for human rights. You don't have to be AGAINST human rights necessarily to not be for them. Politicians are not political activists. A political activist's interest is the success of a point of view. A politician's is not. There comes a point where a political activist, which I believe all worthwhile politicians begin as, cease to be an activist for an issue and begin to be a politician whose focus is politicking. There are of course politicians from different lines of work, particularly corporate America, but that plague is best left for discussion at a different time. The crux of the difference between an activist and a politician is flexibility. Activists are inflexible on their positions. Politicians are born o...
