The detrimental
Byproduct of technology
Is that we are losing
Our intuition
.
No longer retaining an
Obi-Wan Jedi Knight
Knowing of any great
Disturbance in the force
.
Clever or catastrophic
Tiny or Titanic
We’ll just wait until
We see it on TV
.
Even mom’s spidey-senses
Of impending danger or
A child’s location is
Diminishing digitally
.
As their whereabouts are
Tracked and triangulated
As long as the signal has
Enough bars and is charged
.
Like not having to exercise
One’s own unused memory
As to where the car is parked
It is just a click and beep away
.
Will we ever get it back
Or will it be like our last
Nerve synapse that fails
Before sinking into an abyss
.
Turning our humanity
Over to the mean machine
Pondering this trying to realize
We’ve allowed to dehumanize
.
A two to one word change
Does not a parody make
My apologies to R.E.M.
.
“That’s me in the corner
That’s me in the spot-light
Losing intuition
Trying to keep up with you
And I don’t know if I can do it
Oh no I’ve said too much
I haven’t said enough”
.
“Just an observation, maybe I need different glasses.”
.
– Angelo Devlin
Maybe the whole point
To this existence is
There is no point to
This whole existence
.
Therefore one must
Learn to live and love
Be kind and share
.
Because if you haven’t
Up until now it is all
You need to do
Going forward
.
Forever and ever
Otherwise what is
The point
.
Because in all likelihood
All you do is change shape
Dissappear and animate
Decease and reincarnate
.
“Just an observation, maybe I need different glasses.”
.
– Angelo Devlin
Between
.
Post George Floyd death riots
And
The Capital incited insurrection
.
Except maybe
.
The former was
Leader-less
And the latter
Leader less
.
“Just an observation, maybe I need different glasses.”
.
– Angelo Devlin
I am quite the quiet contrarian
Not so much to be counterculture
As that pendulum forever swings
.
Rather evolve as more anti-culture
Which is against all norms & mores
Religious political and financial
.
Having been manifested in that order
Just past survival to control thought
Garner allies then be held in bondage
.
May be why we cling to the past like
How elephants are trained to stay on
A short chain it is all they have learned
.
When there are so many paths to take
That we may all grow brighter as
Individual sparks of the divine
.
Till we burn through every karma
So hot karma itself is incinerated
Is my sought path of natural evolution
.
Meanwhile I am the epitome of normal
Nice house with a white picket fence
Wonderful wife good job great family
Like a good conspiracy theorist
.
Keep your thoughts to yourself
Even if someone chimes in with
Concepts you might agree with
Or have the courage to disagree
.
Say nothing except hmmmm interesting
.
Otherwise before you know it
The speaker and other listeners will
Gather to extrapolate further on
Stuff they heard and over heard
.
Gleaned from reliable sources (maybe)
Because of someone they know and
Like trusted them with that information
Or broadcast again till it sinks in
.
Then just so they don’t forget it all
Will start writing it all down on paper
Editing to fill or reduce depending on
The agenda they wish to set at the time
.
With vague language to be interpreted
By self described experts who studied
The manuscript that is categorized and
Numbered for reference to simply re-explain
What it means while getting some traction
Travel all over the world in many languages
.
Varied as cultures manifest their version
Till people start killing each other over
Their version of what started as silly
Rumors and heresay in the first place
.
The one word proof of such conspiracy is
.
RELIGION
.
And we certainly don’t need another one
Of those now do we or a new bible either
.
Will it be decades or millennium before
In honor of 45’s contrived martyrdom
As a symbol of his supposed sacrifices
That he will be hanging between two flag
Draped flagpoles by his Twitter thumbs
So his worshippers of a false god have
Something to hang around their neck
Forever clinging to the divisive albatross
.
“Just an observation, maybe I need different glasses.”
.
– Angelo Devlin
While it may be a dark
Sad ironic musing that
The lady carrying a flag
“Don’t Tread On Me”
Was trampled to death
.
Somewhere on the soles
Of the souls, heavy feet
Drag carrying a heavy heart
After all of their bravado
Caused someone’s death
.
They might not even know if
Their misguided marching step
Was first last or in-between
But I’d bet their soul does
With no console from karma
.
And all for what because some
Narcissist charlatan grifter did
Not get to continue his ego
Satiating petulant Presidency
That riled racism & rebuked religion
.
Not his alleged religion, mind you
Nor those with his skin color either
One who has such a tiny concept
Of a melting pot and how it works
Would rather destroy it then cook with it
.
“Just an observation, maybe I need different glasses.”

No need to worry
Everything will be okay
Look up at the stars
They have been here forever
You are made up of star dust
.
As all of thd chaos was being
Regurgitated and repeatsd
I was driving my nightly schedule
Up and over a mountain pass
At the roadway peak
There is a place to pull over
Plus traffic is nonexistent
.
The divine opportunity to take
A few moments to look at the stars
Resolves many a human problem
.
The night was so crisp and cold
With nary a one cloud in the sky
One could literally see forever
Beyond the stars and the bs story
That allegedly placed them there
.
Not only can you see the stars
When you see the wide band cluster
You know it is as we understand it
The exquisite view of the Milky Way
.
Back to the tractor cab rolling again
Is when the news and opinion shows
Become laughable for their distractions
Coming at humanity from all sides
.
Not sure if you have the opportunity
Or such a grand location to view
Without the street light encumbrance
(That seems the biggest obstacle)
Look up at the stars realize your place
In the cosmos and enjoy the ride
.

Here is a nice long Joe Rogan bit
To help bring the blog post home
.
“Space is the most taken for granted thing ever. You know how crazy it is that it’s above you, every day and never comes up.
.
If we all lived underground or indoors, there was only one place in the whole world……where you can see space, you know how popular that *** would be?
.
Everybody would travel to see space. You just stand there and hold hands and look up and go: “There’s no ceiling, it’s *** incre… It’s mindblowing!”
.
But instead it’s there everyday like: “Oh look the Big Dipper, I should go.”
.
People travel to see the *** Grand Canyon.”Hey dude, you’ve got to go to the Grand Canyon man, dude it changed my life man””
.
I stood up there and saw that canyon, it was so immense……i just realised how small my role in the universe really is.””
.
Oh, really? Wow! Hey, how about all that ***?””(Joe Rogan points up) What the *** are you talking about? Those aren’t light bulbs mother ***!””
.
Those are huge nuclear explosions billions of miles away……and it goes on forever. Do you know what forever means?”
.
It means this whole universe of hundreds of billions of galaxies……might just be a part of one atom……it’s in the cell of the balls of one guy who lives in another universe……it’s part of one atom, that’s a cell of a ball and a guy……and it goes on and on and on FOREVER!!!””
.
And there is no *** end! And you are looking at a ditch. You just drove six hours to look at a ditch, you are a *** dummy.””
.
You can see the bottom, why is that even interesting to you?””Oh yeah, yeah, you are small, it’s big.
.
“Space is some *** crazy ***!”

(I better put the title down here
Otherwise it reads like a
Statement and not a point)
.
“On one hand”
I totally agree that 45 DJT
Had nothing to do with the
Insurrection at the Capital
.
Just as much as it is
A personal theory that
Yelling fire in a theater
Crowded or otherwise
(When there may or may
Not be an actual fire)
Is an entirely acceptable
Act of free speech that
It falls on the individual
Patrons of the theater to
Determine, either sensing
Visually or by olfactory
Intuitively or cognitively
That there is indeed a
Danger that needs heed
.
Not linguistically legislated
Parameters of a “freedom”
I will repeat that again
To let that nuance sink in
(Parameters of a “freedom”)
Under that all inclusive guise
Of the, by the and for the people.
.
That of course would dole out
Tooo much responsibility to
The individual and we can’t
Have that now can we?????
.
However…….
.
We do not operate
Like that on this planet
Not yet anyway
.
From birth you are
Assigned a name
Through repetition by
A person or persons
Who assume a role
As authority figures
Over your “well” being
Instruct you in manners
Of eating peeing pooping
Crawling walking learning
Speaking repeating
Pleasing following
Consuming wasting
Conforming obeying
.
All so you can operate
In the framework of
A law and order society
That makes them up
As they go along which can
Be ignored by certain groups
Then implemented unjustly as
Heavy handed towards others
Simply because they do not
Look like the dieing ruling class.
.
On the other hand
.
Nothing would have happened
If their alleged leader behaved
Accordingly and with civility
Taking objections through the
Courts as it did in the Florida case
Of Bush v. Gore you know
With….#UCKING…….EVIDENCE
.
Regarding the above proclivity
Of human beings to do
As they are told by imaginary
Father figures invisible
Nonexistent or otherwise
It is entirely possible that the
Domestic freedom fighters
Were taking commands from
What their TV hunkered leader
Was tweeting and speaking
.
“Just an observation, maybe I need different glasses.”
.
– Angelo Devlin
Is exactly that
Freedom of speech
.
Its parameters
Are not defined
By truth or lies
Blasphemy with clarity
Honesty and integrity
.
Merely anything
That speaks
To anyone or
No one at all
.
Art or garbage
Words or paint
Silk or sewage
.
Somehow though
Is interpreted
Through ego
.
Where beauty is
In the eyes
Of the blind
.
Not understanding
True freedoms
Diminishes notions of
What is acceptable
.
If you agree with it
Like only what you
See hear and sense
Interpret for self
.
As detailed or
Defined by an
Authority’s version
Entities not you
.
Is a curtailed
Freedom from
The get go
.
.
(Where this should have stopped)
.
However
If someone takes away
Your conch
It does not mean
You (Ralph) have lost your
Freedom of speech
.
It just means that you
Have nothing to say
Or it is not your turn
(It is Jack’s turn)
.
Perhaps though
You’ve placed yourself
In charge to protect
The isle of children
When you are a
Child yourself and
Can not manage to
Because you are so busy
Taking care of yourself
.

Like we are heading towards
A grand finale of Season 4
Episode 12 with Covid 19
Putting more seasons on hold
Cliff hangers at every turn as
Less then half of the audience
Cheers on their antagonist
.
What else would you expect
From a reality TV * porn star
.
As it may all come down
To those insecure about
The size of their weapon
They will be bringing their
Metal ones cocked & loaded
Ending in violent discharge
.
Unless of course it dawns
On them 45 was disguised as
A flashy Jim Jones
Without cups of Kool-aid
Just a self absorbed
Malignant narcissist
Failed bumbling
Business(con)man but
Through infamy and will
Could bring new suckers
To the table for his ego
Amusement use and discard
.
As Howard Stern has said
None of those Capital criminals
Were / are never ever going
To be invited to Mar-a-logo
Those are not “his” people though
They were convinced they were
.
Like him hoping his (their) “daddy”
Would find ways to be loved by him
Unconditionally once they prove it
.
