writing into the void

 because the past has become the now

blog lipids cover the internet a glimpse

into a trend that died years ago. go feast

on the past but this is the actual 

now still being documented

because long ago i gave up the dream of writing 

as a living. i don't have the glands for it.

it's too consuming. it takes a lot of energy

away from life. which consists more and more

of simply survival. that's everywhere, i even see

what's left of the middle class awakening.

)(

i watch this dictator 

in disbelief that this country

can not oust him legally

because whatever checks and balances

existed only in the co operation of the operatives.

since the justice dept belongs to the administration

and the military is headed by this abomination

of a leader, there is no legal way to oust him

because who is going to arrest him? THe head of the justice dept?

a lackey. the head of the fbi? a toady. the secretaries of war,

treasury, state? treasonous cowards or treasonous bullies. sometimes

both.  They know what's coming midterms and they're scared.

which means they'll rig the elections again. look for the nazi trillionaire

to get all buddy buddy by march. look at the dollars funneled

to swing districts. voting machines can be manipulated.

they will do it.

can they do enough to save themselves? watch closely.

it's going on at this moment. but my hope is that

people like my co worker and my sister (not her husband

he's lost), although being republican to the core

will just sit midterms out. becuase they don't like what's happening

and the fact they have to justify their support for this 

war mongering,  imperialistic war dog, who has and will

continue to use his military to attack the citizens of this country

is a li'l bit more than they can swallow.

willl he get away with it? who knows? he's gotten away with everything else.

back the future 2 was simply a documentary. biff won.

dammit professor, get back the past and change this timeline.

some people say the simpsons foretold this.

those who don't learn from history et cetera.

it's disapointing but no longer surprising.

yet my mouth is a fly trap 

with every new statement as in

how does he keep getting away with this.

ignore the evidence of your eyes and ears.

i want to scream at his supporters

look out for the snake

but they just see a rope 

with each constriction the snake steals

clarity, hypnotically convincing

the prey that this union 

is what they've been seeking.

look it says

i'm just a rope

with which to hang your enemies.

it's easier to rail against the things macro

that i cannot change rather than examine

the things micro that i should be able to

change. like leaving a situation that

seems doomed anyway. 

i love you but i don't like you right now

becuase of the things. 

i don't need to repeat them they 

haven't changed. they won't

unless i do something about them. 

but i can't stand your whining

about them. how that scrap must

be kept how  this one was going 

to be the treasure that etsies

you into comfort. yeesh

you have a year's worth of inventory

to unload. maybe 3. if you didn't have that

permanent ban from ebay you might 

make a living selling it.

but whatever. 

it makes me weary to reiterate

all the ways you disrespect

me and my desires. 

so i guess that means i'm done for the day.
