The bare bones of the situation is wealthy lifestyles
create piles of bodies
billionaires and trillionaires and millionaires
live too far removed from the starved corpses
to smell the stench
market Calvinists
the wealthy
pretend feigned ignorance makes innocence
don't give a thought to a million a year
emaciated
stomachs grossly distended
under rib bones pushing through
their skin
laying dead wherever
dire fate
has them fall
their children's children
will live in what they have done
the historic echoes of their inhumanity
skies brown
birds sang their last songs
bees long gone
they will stand up on their cancerous legs
pull the portrait's of their ancestor's down from the mantels
try to burn their memories into black dust
curse them for trading the very atmosphere of the earth
for their Almighty Mansions, SVU's and swimming pools
without a thought
let alone a fight
let alone the right

Don't blame me, stop blaming me
I am not aware of this spoile A pulpity of killing and a light that is not intended to be hidden. If the richness in the sky, it was exposed during the detailed veil, so I came, and she had dressed to sleep, and she said, “O God, help.”please

It Only Took One Minute.......
It only took a minute. I was sitting at the computer in my office when the phone rang. I picked up the receiver and then laid it down my desk as I went to find the student who the call was for. Within seconds I was back at my desk, ready to resume typing, when I heard the student yelling obscenities at me for listening in to his call through the handset that was still lying on the desk. Sick and tired of the lies he was spewing, I was up running down the hall, ready to kill him. By the time I reached him, I had calmed enough not to hurt him, but as I turned back towards my room, I knew that I couldn’t go on like this any longer. The decision was clear. I had to leave.

This is one of the greatest writers of his generation. Unfortunately he ran into problems with the government, who repressed his work. He five books on LULU, three you can get for free, WAKING UP JESUS, about when he was classically brainwashed, and used by hidden intelligence concerns on a mission that he refused to help with, once he realized how dark their intentions were... a book of comedy, The Religious Psycho Killer's Shit List, and ONE WAR. One of his five major's in university was Anthropology with an emphasis on Military Intelligence, and he writes this one in three triptychs, one based on a Navy Seal during operation Phoenix, another on a poet who writes about Iran Contra, killing the character based slightly on Gary Webb, who broke Iran Contra, and later, after Ridgway wrote his book, committed 'suicide' rather miraculously with two bullets into the back. Casey, the Reagan CIA director was scheduled to go before congress on this matter, and had a brain tumor blow out his brain three days before.
