It is not the job of
The talking heads
To give their opinion
Rather to cast upon
The audience the
Opinions that they
Did not know they had
Till someone told them
What it should be and how
With bizarre justifications
Stirring the pot of ignorance
To a rolling boil that
One can be offended
By one million humans
Crossing an invisible line
Bettering their situation
While no one objects to
The four million humans
Coming in from within
The melted pot itself

Only proof of belief
Which is impossible to prove
“Inclusion:
1. : the act of including, : the state of being included”
– m-w.com
Not me, “I don’t want to belong to any group that would have me as a member.”
– Groucho Marx (attributed)
However, some people want and need, a need to be included.
What better, than to live up to the Rainbow’s intention of inclusion, than……to include…….everyone. Besides, there is already a plus (+) in the organization’s moniker, to include anyone left behind. Those who feel marginalized by society.
Perhaps LGBTQ+ brought in AOWMUOABL (Angry Old White Mem Upset Over A Beer Lable) to their group, they would feel better about themselves…….and not be so angry because they have been excluded from a group, that includes…….everyone.
Otherwise, it defeats their purpose to include everyone, if it doesn’t include everyone.
I can see it now, the Dixie flag, going from orange, blue and white to red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet, black, brown, white, pink, etc.
Next, we can all move on, to not have any flags of any separatist symbolism, only used to divide and manifest exclusion, distraction, fear, imperialism, control, etc.
Seeing as how we are all on this spaceship together, that we need to repair, so it will keep taking us through the cosmos.
“Just an observation,
Maybe I need
Different glasses.”
– Angelo Devlin
Glasses, not so prismatic, so as to see everything in black and white, like apparently so many do.
That solipsism can not be
Proven nor disproven, yet
It exists as a contemplation
Because there is a word for it
“Just an observation,
Maybe I need
Different glasses.”
– Angelo Devlin
Our infinitesimal insignificance
Is in direct juxtaposition to our
Astronomical egotistical arrogance
Not realizing we are so small
The dust speck of a speck of dust
“Just an observation,
Maybe I need
Different glasses.”
Or an electron microscope….

On deception
Just different at the
Art of distraction
For audiences
Needing coercion
All because no one
Wants to consider
The left wing and
The right wing belong
To the same bird…..us
So each side
Tells their side
The other side
Is lying
To “their” side
Which is as bad as trying to follow
The logic of the following
“The following statement is true
The previous statement is false”
– George Carlin
Trouble is….. humans
Have an innate tendency
To believe what is heard first
Because the other tendency
Is not to question anything
Why……..because it is easier
Satiating the simplicity
So that they might slumber
On their comfy pillow
That has been oversold
The faux audience
Of the faux talking heads
Will never hear about
The Dominion lawsuit
From their faux news
Which according to rumor
Heresy, texts and emails
By other news outlets, Faux
Presented known falsehoods
For ratings, revenue and rhetoric
Ooopsie
Likewise the other sides
Are just as bad from
The other direction
Only presenting information
That keeps your rapt attention
Teasing you with teasers
Not to inform you
Of your divinity
But rather to keep
You consuming commercials
Evolutionary news
Would point out similarities
Instead of our differences
But there is no profit in that
No money in that revolution
At least not immediately
Not until many more trips
Are taken around the board
When we realize it is just
A game we are playing
The money is fake
The boardwalk is empty
The trains don’t run on time
There’s a chance you’ll go to jail
Banks own the community chest
None of it is real or permanent
Save the solipsistic sensation
That illusionary immersion
Has convinced some otherwise
On its infinite and momentary importance
“Just an observation,
Maybe I need
Different glasses.”
– Angelo Devlin
With its head
Hung low in shame
Its representative flag
Flies at half staff again
Need not wonder why
Just staff & students
Who did not need to die
Families only left to cry
Gurgling through
The crimson goo
With what is left
Of their last dying breath
No wonder they want
To save the fetus
Otherwise they will
Run out of targets
For everyone knows
They have the right
To be involved in a
One-sided gun fight
It doesn’t have to
Be like this
It is just that we can’t
Picture anything else
Civilized earthlings
Do not behave this way
Lest they are being
Distracted everyday
By keeping them
Living in fear
Is becoming
Abundantly clear
“Just an observation,
Maybe I need
Different glasses.”

Not permanently, don’t worry
(No one is mandating the metric system yet)
Just long enough to think about
The context of ridiculousness
To which the following applies
Recently heard senator so and so
(In this case, they are interchangeable)
Was defending his racist policies
Because of his “deeply held religious beliefs”
Which is when that phrase
Seemed to give him an automatic pass
To the interviewer to accept that
With unquestioning legitimacy
Of ironically un-Christlike behavior
Hint: there were no Caucasians
In Bethlehem 2K23 years ago
Now there, for historical accuracy
Might be an image worth replacing
Interviewer: “Oh yes, society as a whole abhors your policies, but since you can preface them with words that defer to a conviction, based on nothing.
Save, generational indoctrination via many pastoral presentations, through book revisions, re-writings and translations from nearly dead unrecognizable languages, I won’t press the issue.”
However, instead of deeply held religious beliefs, they said they introduced policy because of a lightly considered Warlock dream they had, or anything else the interviewer would have read them the riot act.
Either, or both have the wrongfulness in the outcome of the morality towards treating fellow bipedal earthling artists, in a way that elevates and progresses our collective evolution, unfortunately the former goes, without question.
Why?
Because no one wants to question their own beliefs. That’s too scary. People would discover as Bill Hicks said:
“It is interesting to see how people act on their beliefs, you know what I mean. Because your beliefs are just that, they are just how you were taught and raised. That doesn’t make them real.”
I know my beliefs, are just that, beliefs. Which are as fluid and malleable to my surroundings and constantly in flux.
Which, thanks to Bill, need to be questioned infinitely as to how they apply in the treatment of myself (other people reflecting back, who I am) outside of my self.
“Now, believe is a word that I have a serious problem with, right, because it has a “Lie” in the middle.

To see our ugly reflection
Staring us in the scarred face
Under cold fluorescent lights
We turn away to point a finger
For the crimes against humanity
With the International Criminal Court
When we see what Putin does
To the Sovereign Ukrainians
But when Bush did the same
To the Iraqis, that didn’t look as bad
Because from that there perspective
It was done for God and country

“Former President George W. Bush has finally, if unintentionally, admitted his error in invading Iraq nearly 20 years ago. While attempting to scold Russian President Vladimir Putin for his ruthless invasion of Ukraine, Bush accidentally condemned his own actions.
At an event at the George W. Bush Presidential Center in Dallas on Wednesday, the former president called out “the decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq.” He quickly corrected himself, saying, “I mean Ukraine,” but he proceeded to chuckle and mutter “Iraq, too” under his breath to laughter from the audience. It’s true that had his gaffe not reflected reality, it would have almost been comedic. But as a child of Iraqi migrants, the distasteful sniggering by the man who launched a war resulting in at least 800,000 estimated Iraqi deaths and the displacement of millions more is nothing short of despicable.”
We knew deep down inside like the oil wells
Halliburton was about to dig it was
For our own self interest of the “economy”
But, where else would we be without
Our AMSOC (AMerican SOCIalism)
The clever ruse of AMIMP (imperialism)
On the redistribution of wealth
Back and forth between the government
Of connected in cahoots corporations
Disguised as defending democracy by
Building weapons of mass destruction
All the way from aircraft carriers
To bombs, bulldozers and body bags
Keeping the Proletariat busy with “jobs”
So they can in turn buy more stuff
With their meager after tax leftovers
Meanwhile it is all laid out in
“The Prosecution of an American President”
By Vincent Bugliosi
Just need one Attorney’s General to file an indictment….
George essentially confessed in that Freudian slip, less than a year ago. Grab some handuffs. Quite sure there are no statute of limitations on war crimes.
Anyone…..yoohoo…..I’m waiting……
Ah fuck.
Then we would see what is in the mirror.
Which technically we wouldn’t even see
At least not for very long thanks to all
Of the distraction make-up we apply
In the face of scandal, immigration
Abortion, fake fear gun confiscation
Race relation and gender manipulations
Any attempts to fix farcical education
Oops, almost forgot…….
“If you become
The leader of the land,
For murder is the sport
Of the elected,
And you don’t need to lift
A finger of your hand
Because it’s murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3,
It’s as easy to learn as your ABC.
Murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3,
It’s as easy to learn as your A, B, C, D, E,………”
The Police
Millions dead, on our watch, that you and I paid for, with our tax dollars, at the very least makes us unwitting accomplices. Maybe that is why our beer drinking buddy George won’t serve any time, because then we would have to also.

Good thing Tucker Carlson was not given any raw or documentary type footage of the Milwaukee cannibalistic mass murders.
Otherwise people and the families of the victims, might be lead to believe, Jeffrey Dahmer simply invited guests over for dinner.
Therefore it wasn’t Jeffrey’s fault, for there being a breakdown in communication. See, he invited them over for dinner. Not knowing they were the main course. Ooopsie.

Where this should have stopped.
Nope, not dark enough.
Perhaps, Tucker Carlson was not the best person to hand over this January 6th material to. Sitting alone as the master in the booth, watching the unpatriotic porn. Spinning dials, pushing levers and pulling knobs, while debating which scenes to cut and or release.
Fantasizing he was at the capital, rifling through Nancy Pelosi’s desk drawers, trying to oddly address his mommy issues. So that he might continue with his on air, smug, holier-than-thou “not too racist” persona, in need of daddy approval.
With his soul dead, deadpan delivery, that screams of needing attention both inside and outside, that along with his cohorts need to maintain the mayhem for the money. Within the echo chamber of the filtered bubble.
