Vampire Haiku

I protect myself

From energy vampires

They suck my being

Hey Seuss

“If Christ were here, there is one thing he would not be — a Christian.”

–Mark Twain

.
The unobtainable could be obtained

If people practiced instead of posed

Just trying to figure out

How professed Christians

Look up to their immoral mortal leader

Who also alleges himself to be one

“I’m proud to be a Christian”

– Donald Trump

“In truth, there was only one Christian and he died on the cross.”

Friedrich Nietzsche

For what little I’ve read or heard

Of the fellow cannot recall ever

Ever any psalms or passages

That recommend kidnapping

Children form parents escaping

A situation so dire they are willing

To flee to lady liberty’s poorly lit torch

Only to be welcomed with broken arms

And be interned in filthy cages

WTF did they escape to come here???

“Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.”

45 A *matchstick man standing

On his moral high ground

In the abyss of Dante’s Inferno

* “Con artists are also referred to as matchstick men because they create temporary personas that are fleeting and simple.”

“Christianity has not been tried and found wanting; it has been found difficult and not tried.”

Gilbert K. Chesterton

If Only

Peace was more lucrative

Than war

It would break out today

A Step Further

“If voting made any difference they wouldn’t let us do it.”

― Mark Twain

 

 

.
Voting is an outward act

Masking an internal solution

Voting your conscience

Does not require a ballot

Best actions need not be counted

Decency uncompelled by majority

Ethics not determined by committee

Neanderthals didn’t vote

Surviving on nutritious food

With little information

Natural packaging

Lots of clean air and no borders

Creating myths to guide

In a search for meaning

Devolved into religions

Of bogus beginnings

Unlikely endings

Infinite interpretations

Dichotomously incongruent

Purveyors of “laws”

Established by invisible deities

Allegedly written in stone

Making them sound concrete

Transcribed by men

To serve their purpose

Not divinities or transcendence

Of malevolent mortals

Comfortable in the rut

Of trading an eye for an eye

Blindly accepting no progress

Before evolving into economic systems

Forging centers of greed and power

Mostly consume and repeat

Tax spend security and keep

So take it a step further

Be your own leader

Trade with everyone

Open your heart without borders

Create peace never war

Your constitution is more alive

Then decaying papyrus

Sealed under glass

In a nuclear proof vault

To preserve the lie / line

All men are created equal

Not so you would notice

Such as it being “illegal”

To lie to Congress, but

Not illegal for Congress

To lie to the people

The rule of law is merely

A political platform to keep

Humanity’s flock in line

Corralled by a few sheepdogs

A faux focus to follow

As the shepherds know

The rules don’t apply

To the makers of rules

Fighting for your country

Is a much more

Interesting and

Vaguely dangerous

Justification

Than admitting

To being

A mercenary

For a

Criminal corporation

In cahoots with

The government

To steal resources

Under the guise

Of democracy and

Freedumb

Allowing people

Who want to

Kill people

A legal “outlet”

For wanting

To do so

“Everyone who joined the military, joined the military cause they kinda want to go kill other people.

Right? And that’s good. That’s your instinct. Your instinct is your true God, follow it. If you just want to fucking kill someone, there’s a place for it.

Go to the military. As long as people who kinda want to go kill other people are going to kill other people who kinda wanna go to kill other people, you’re killing all the right people, and opening up all the best parking spaces.”

– Doug Stanhope

I get it I do

I used to be

Captain America

Still have a flag once

Flown over the Capital

Have a large flag

I used to display

Now folded in its

Respectful triangle

However

Speaking of flags

And freedom

The cyclical

Regurgitation of

Contention over

Flag burning

Is exhausting

It is a mindless debate

Foisted upon the weak

To stir alleged patriotism

When it is in general

A diabolical distraction

.

 

I took the red pill

Long before Neo did

“Red Pill: A life of harsh knowledge, desperate freedom, and the brutal truths of reality.

Blue Pill: A life of luxurious security, tranquil happiness, and the blissful ignorance of the harsh realities of life, basking in an (essentially dishonest) illusion.”

– Wikipedia

The older I get

The more acute

Or cute the questions

“This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.”

– “Morpheus”
– “The Matrix”

.
How can one not look back in recent history to see how GWB manipulated information and the media to have a war in Iraq, when the alleged “attackers” were in Afghanistan?

So what gives in Iran? Minding their own business following the nuclear treaty which gets altered to make them, not in compliance. Stirring tensions, hate and nationalism for what purpose?

My guess it is imperialism at its worst, that or someone found some cheap oil.

 

When is the collective going to wake up and realize there is no us and them? It is all just us, hurling through the cosmos on a giant spaceship that we better learn to maintain before it falls apart.

Nothing Haiku

It takes a long time

For one to think of nothing

That’s where peace resides

Embrace The New

Embrace the new

It is our evolutionary pull

Forget the last

That was in the past

Clinging to the old

Makes one grow cold

Wake up with a roar

Or become extinct

Like the dinosaur

Celebrating

My

Independence

From group

Think

No fireworks

Required

Only love

For the

Lost

Many

Oooh’s and ahhh’s

Of hope

Knowing

Understanding

Will prevail

That

One’s enemy

Is

Thyself

No seperation

By

Nonexistent

Sides

Impossible divisions

Watching

Sparks of

The divine

Emanating their

Brilliance

Helping themselves

By

Helping others

Selfishness

In reverse

That seems

Worth

Every day

Celebrating

 

 

At Some Point

The enamored blind base has got to catch on at some point and realize their celebrity dictator apprentice Putin puppet has nary a clue.

“Trump thinks busing refers to literally how children get to school, not to the school integration policy Biden and Harris were argung about,” Adam Serwer of the Atlantic said.

“Well, that’s something that they’ve done for a long period of time. You know, there aren’t that many ways you’re going to get people to schools.

So this is something that’s been done. In some cases, it’s been done with a hammer instead of a velvet glove,” Trump said. “But it is certainly a primary method of getting people to schools.”

– “The Atlantic”

Fortunately or unfortunately, I have nothing to add.
