The Word
The wind blows. The birds sing. The water flows. In the beginning was sound. A frequency that blew through the ground. Rising volcanoes from bursting stars. Energy compacted and thrown so very far. The up and down of a wave comes from our lips as sound is made. Attempting to describe all that can be [...]
Like a Mud Slide
Before I comment, please explain to me. How is Jesus throwing corrupt traders out of the temple equivalent to Occupy Wall Street? Because Wall Street worships money with a religious zealotry. Because Wall Street lobbies for corporations, not for you and me. Because a corporations main purpose is profit and greed. Not to produce the [...]
Talking to Ghosts
There are so many people with the same boot to their neck, day after day, as the world watches a global financial train wreck. You should know most, if not all of this. There is not enough food to feed the world’s hungry. Not enough empathy to comfort the needy. Corporations have bought and sold [...]
The Rest will Follow
I come to you anew. Desiring only one thing. Love… That you might find it. That it might exist in your life. For you are the eyes of the universe. You are the body of the creation. One single nation, of life. All connected. All hate rejected. You and me, we sit on a time [...]
The Butterfly Effect
Another year as nostalgia bites. As memories fight. So many tragedies. So much pain. Targeted. Politicized for monetary gain. As the calendar unfolds. The day’s story told and retold, again. Twenty-four-seven. For where have we been? Humans are capable of such magic. Some, gifted shamans create culture. Some, cursed vultures eat their own. Whatever media [...]
View from the Tower
Teaching and learning has not changed much at all, but the tools used to do so have been installed, upgraded, patched and begun to evolve. Where Aristotle might use a stick to draw in the sand, now a teacher draws on a digital blackboard for one hundred grand. Where face-to-face conversations were once needed, online [...]
Occupy Insects
We will be here in the end, when the dust settles, when the grid goes down, when no one knows how to pick themselves up. We will carry the torch, and create light and starve to make it right, when others have laid down, we will stand. We will carve statues, from the rubble found, [...]
Fire in the Belly
They think they will win. They have medicated us. Put us under their spell. Our lows are high. Our highs are low. No more roller-coasters. I am happy to be alive. The spell works so very well. Big Pharma the grease That keeps the machine oiled. We sit and see the destruction. We watch with [...]
White as Snow
Tear it all down. It will come back again. Punch me in the face. I will double my pace. Momentum quickens with oppression. Protests multiply through opposition. The voice of democracy wins by who shouts loudest. There are thousands gathering to sleep in tents through the Winter with no solace. And it all goes by [...]
An Open Society
There are savages among us. They live next door. Waiting to know more. They are in your friend list. They are in our politics. Bending laws to rule us. We fear Stalin. We curse communism. Now the iron fist of data exists. We fear our information Being taken from us. But we want bliss. To [...]
Graduating with Honors
So many years in the desert. So many lives lost. Do you know why? For pride? For ego? So we can say we won? The desert is only sand. There is nothing to defend. Trucks blown up By IEDs covered up Each night after the roads are cleared. Body parts come back. I think your [...]
I Tweet Therefore I Am
Is this how it ends or how it begins? Millions of people networked online through social media ready to take a stand. To take to the streets. To live in tents through the winter and rain. To send a message. That revolution is among us if things don’t change. That good people have done their [...]
One Shot to the Head
It will take a martyr. It will take a bullet For this movement To grow. Who will take it? Do you know? The corporations don’t worry about your or me. Or the future of this country. Or the future of this planet. They poison our food and water. They buy legal contracts for their toxins [...]
America the Beautiful
I man this station with these fingers. Clinched. Typing so that we may exist. To let the world know this cause is true. That the survival of humanity is what we renew. That corporations and banks have had their take. That teachers and unions are the backbone of the Republic we make. No longer will [...]
