The Tides of Destruction Washed Away All Pretense



This is a warning from the Emerge-and-See Broadcast system...
The Emperor does not have any new clothes... there are no more "imagined" solutions for the problems being caused by mindless consumerism and consumption... and no Ab-rollers or other quick fixes can get rid of the massive gut resulting from our gluttony and the rut... we have allowed ourselves to fall into becuz we keep following the... leader?

NOW... is the TIME! to lead ourselves out of our mental stupor... stop self-medicating ourselves with mo'drugs, mo'money, and mo' comforting meditations in our attempts to dull the pain we are causing to ourselves, each other, and our Planet... STOP IT... DAMMIT!

Yeah... the Emperor... has no new clothes. He is butt-naked... ass-out, and this emasculated Bush... is exposed for ALL the world to see!

In the event that U actually Emerge-and-See these announcements will be followed by constructive actions, by everyone concerned, to effect change within themselves and their immediate environments.

STAY TUNED FOR FURTHER ANNOUNCEMENTS FROM YOUR... EMERGE-AND-SEE BROADCAST SYSTEM.


sometimes the earth cries... booger tears...
u know... those sobs that... make ugly faces...
drips snot out your nose and...
is accompanied by animal-like snorts of... pain...
like a... clock... work... orange... we...
seek to explain...


how could something like this happen?


the UnIverse moves and...
we ride bi-cycles of... life and death...
save your breath... who said it would be understood?
if you think the world has suddenly gone... bad...
trance-end the wheel... stop your... psycho-drama...
do something to tip the scales towards... good?


a wisewoman once told me...
"get over yourself... it aint about you!" [spookee aint it?]


it has been said that, "death... is the great equalizer"
yet... we are all born... to die, so...
the Creator gives birth to... equality...
somewhere in-between... it is we...
who fucked up the divine equation, then...
when the UnIverse shows us the seeds we have sown...
we point... fingers of blame and play... games of evasion.


where's the helping helps attached to... all those fingas?


see... sometimes the water isn't so cleansing...
it doesn't come to wash, but... to reveal the stains..
and quiet as its kept... if it takes a disaster to... bring us together?...
what does this say about the mentality we maintain?


Mother Earth has once again... aired our dirty laundry...


we need to act like a family... "ALL" of the time...
not just on holidays, birthdays... funerals...
or times of... disaster.

and so it begins... this... poem in progress. this is the release of creative potential... thought seeds planted within the medium of... cyberspace. some of the seeds will definitely resemble poems, some... may not. i really don't expect words to ever be exactly what they are describing, they are just fingers pointing at the moon, so... don't bite my finger! just enjoy the experience of the moon. in all of her phases... she is the force behind the rise and fall of... life's pulse, the beat... of all hearts. This is a book! Don't let the appearance, or randomness of order fool you... this is a bonafide book. As I said before, "a poem in progress"... a journal, tracking the development of a human poem... written by the Grand Author of the Universe Herself... translated by me [her chosen vessel]. Imagine if you will... a man impregnated with a seed of awareness, from SHE... blessed to nourish this germ of life as it gestates into a living being... a "

the I.R.S., kneegrows,and... 10 40's

these are some random thoughts that strung themselves together, after a recent conversation on the legal, voluntary nature of the personal income tax, and... the self-destructive tendency of so-called amerikkkan citizens refusal to think 4 themselves, or question their so-called leaders. UnIversal in spirit... i still often approach these socially-accepted sicknesses from the skin i am in, meanwhile... under the surface of ALL of our skins... there remains... a world of suffering! I remain a fugitive... a fugee... a refugee... from the I.R.S... [Ignorance Related Slavery] and the taxing of our... gold minds. see... federal reserve notes... be like... washington and jefferson's I.O.U's... promises that... afRakan chattle... converted into 14th amendment citizens... [its freedumb time!] will still cover the national debt...   and the  Ancestors... blood... sweat... and tears... at this rate... will keep new orleans so wet... maafa bones that

to exist as a... thought... in a fertile mind... such as yours... gives birth to a single smile... folded upon itself a thousand times... ten thousand times... so many times that... it's energy becomes the collapsed light of a... UNIverse unfolding... where... I become your world... at the same time... U become mine... and everything under the sum of... these suns... is a child of... ONE! thought... ONE! aim... ONE! destiny. deep... penetrating... thoughts... shared... thru U and Me... they're like... sex in the morning... hugs before bedtime, and... kisses while U dream. in other words... awake or asleep... U are on my mind. do I have to tell U... it is the experience of U that makes me happy...or... can U see it when I smile? so... i'm going down... to southern hemispheres where... soul food abounds, flesh covered mounds... nourish luv-starved spirits... passion plays... songs of desire for all who... strive to live it, not just... hear it. how have
