The Philosophy Of Will Scene VI

(Earth at the time of Armageddon with Jesus and Satan)
Satan: War, famine, pestilence and finally the knight in shining armor. How just, if only you could have saved the billions already dead.
Jesus: From those who suffered death to those who survived till now all righteous man will be rewarded with the life they deserved a chance at.
Satan: Is it righteous that you wait this long? Earth polluted, families destroyed, religion in shambles from its own hypocrisy, violence in the heart of everyman just waiting for the moment to pull out their sword, shattered economies everywhere dividing the obesely wealthy and the despondently underprivileged.
Jesus: It is because of these issues that it is now fair that I cast you into the Lake of Fire for a thousand years because there is no generation left to come without the Millennial intervention.
Satan: That's cheating!
Jesus: I suppose you forgotten the details of the wager.
Satan: Wager? What did I have to gain?
Jesus: Nothing you were destined to lose as you assumed no man would stay righteous serving for the glory of Jehovah to be a testament to the glory of Creation exercising love and wisdom in their free will. Outside their perfect state when none can fully draw close to their Divine Father they can't obtain the pure justice and pure power to rule in true peace but now 144,000 from Earth being in union with God's love they have Jehovah's blessing to co-rule with me as they are made fit to. Man has returned by faith in my fine works to the true ideal of God's image now be gone to the Lake of Fire.

The Philosophy Of Will Scene V

(30 A.D. in the wilderness with Jesus and Satan)
Satan: So how does your fleshly vessel suit you? Are you at ease, knowing what urges you must satisfy and which you must suppress?
Jesus: The birds know how to nest and the bees know how to pollinate but the instincts of imperfect man is distorted.
Satan: So you do find humans a distasteful disappointment.
Jesus: The fault lies not with them for those powers are beyond them but I shall sacrifice myself for those who recognize the good they must try to aspire for.
Satan: It is vain for they shall never attain purity.
Jesus: I shall lead all willing to follow that road.
Satan: It's a small road with a lot of distractions; natural distractions and unnatural distractions. How much sin can be made for the want of a single loaf of bread. Speaking of which 40 days fasting must leave you hungry.
Jesus: In my mortal state my physical needs are the same as any man.
Satan: It's a shame the most basic needs must sometimes trump the more heavenly needs. A finger of food can mean more than two fists full of justice. So why don't you command these stones to become as bread to nourish you.
Jesus: As Moses wrote man must not live on bread alone but on every utterance of Jehovah's mouth.
Satan: So it is true you are protected by Holy Spirit. Doesn't it invalidate your sacrifice knowing you are protected? I don't suppose it matters whether you look to the left or to the right as God will not let you die until the appointed time? Or perhaps you're just delusional? A false impression of grandeur?
Jesus: Then why do you tempt me?
Satan: Don't I tempt all man great and small alike?
Jesus: The liar speaks truth in quizzical puzzles.
Satan: So if you really are the Son of God prove it by throwing yourself off this ledge as Moses said in the psalm 'He shall give His angels charge over thee lest thou dash thy foot against a stone'
Jesus: And Moses wrote thou shall not tempt God that's your preoccupation.
Satan: You're still awhile away from your inheritance. In fact you shall die first. You won't be protected then. The Kingdom of Heaven and Earth is through a road of Hell for you but it doesn't have to be you could have all the glory and power on Earth now as it is entrusted to me the nations of man. If you shall form an allegiance with me all these nations in my power shall be yours only sacrifice your allegiance to God and it's all yours with no other payment or ransom.
Jesus: As Moses wrote to God alone I shall worship.
Satan: Fine then I'll see you in hell.

The Philosophy Of Will Scene IV

(About a millennium later in heaven with Jehovah, Jesus and others)
(Satan enters)
Jehovah: Where have you been?
Satan: Roaming about the Earth watching my triumph up close.
Jehovah: Then I suppose you haven't seen Job?
Satan: As a matter of fact I have.
Jehovah: Then you see the wisdom in righteousness
Satan: I see the profit in righteousness but would righteousness mean anything if no profit came of it?
Jesus: The point is that moral wisdom is always the most profitable.
Satan: In the long run, but if the mighty had the race and the wise the understanding then where is the test of faith?
Jehovah: No test in needed when you can read hearts.
Satan: And I'm just supposed to take your word on that or cannot I test it for myself.
Jehovah: You may test it, for anything you can do I can undo, but for the sake of this test I will not interfere until the test is over so long as you do not kill him.
Satan: He isn't mine to take until I corrupt him therefore if he is righteous you have nothing to fear, but as for his livestock and his seed that will be the first to go.
Jehovah: So be it he still praises me.
Satan: His wife shall discomfort him and what is man without a wife's support? Just a matching set missing one yet to discard itself.
Jesus: Hallelujah he rebukes her blasphemy
Satan: Flesh for flesh all that drives a man is his desire to survive.
Jesus: You mustn't kill him.
Jehovah: He won't but he will push his limits of existence until his pain surpasses death. It is a Satanic affliction not yet tested on man. Beware my Son for this is what you must endure.
Jesus: I have no fear for myself but in man's defected state can he maintain soundness in mind needed to keep integrity.
Jehovah: With my help all is possible.
Satan: That's cheating!
Jehovah: No, as food and rest nourish the man and is yet unchanged so is my essence to the spiritual being.
Satan: So as a virus I will enter into his friends to infect Job with spiritual ailment.
Jesus: And Job, with love for God's wisdom, wards off the disease like a pharmacist.
Jehovah: Nothing Elizer, Bildad or Zophar says has any affect only Elihu as he speaks with wisdom.
Satan: Livestocks of thousands robbed and slain, ten children dead, a marriage practically shattered and betrayal by friends yet his only sin provoked is a sense of self-justification.
Jesus: He has passed the test what greater sense of justification or self satisfaction can there be.
Jehovah: And so this test will be laid to rest as I set these five straight and adjudicate each to their own good and their own bad.

The Philosophy Of Will Scene III

(In heaven with Satan talking with the other angels around 800 years later)
Satan: Look at them Zeus, just look at them.
Zeus: Yeah what about then?
Satan: Just look
Zeus: Yeah
Satan: What do you see?
Zeus: Some of Jehovah's finest work
Satan: What's so special about it? They live off of the oxygen provided by the plants they have to eat, how inefficient is that? Not only do they have to live on plants if they take too many or too few they would die. Slaves to moderation. And their means of reproduction! Starfish have a more practical means of reproduction.
Zeus: I'm sure man is thankful for their means of reproduction
Satan: I'm not denying that it's the one good thing about being a man
Zeus: The food's nice too
Satan: The fruit of the tree is nothing compared to the fruit of a woman...you should try it.
Zeus: Have you ever tried it?
Satan: Yes of course
Zeus: When? With whom?
Satan: Her, yesterday.
Zeus: How?
Satan: Possession.
Zeus: You raped?
Satan: Sex is sex, one can't be worse than the other, but if you want to experience consensual sex you could just transform yourself into a man and try wooing her yourself.
Zeus: I can transform myself into a man and have sex with the women of the Earth?
Satan: Yes if you become the right sort of man who can attract women.
Zeus: How do you do that?
Satan: How does a hunter attract its prey but by dominance, the predator must overpower.
Zeus: So I should be a mighty man?
Satan: But pleasing too, to look at, you need confidence to match your sense of entitlement.
Zeus: That sounds wrong?
Satan: Aren't we all entitled? Everyman to his field, his family and his woman.
Zeus: God did make it so?
Satan: At least for them, not for us.
Zeus: Yeah why not?
Satan: God knows why?
Zeus: Well I'm going to find out what we're missing out on.
(Zeus leaves stage with a few angels)
Satan: Yes even if Enoch proved faithful losing some of heaven's best should show God's foolishness. Freewill is merely an illusion.
(Jesus enters)
Jesus: Freewill is most certainly not an illusion, you of all angels should know, you abuse it so often.
Satan: And you think you can speak of freewill? Have you ever had a thought of your own tuition?
Jesus: Did I not help make the heavens and Earth?
Satan: But everything you did you took no credit for until now, why?
Jesus: I do not deny the masterwork I took part in creating but I certainly do not hinder giving the greater glory to He who lead it all and designed the functions and initiated the project from its conception.
Satan: You are the manufacturer He is the inventor, He leads the tune and you just play along in harmony but what acts of your own do you do?
Jesus: Succumbing to peer pressure is not exercising freewill.
Satan: And how is obedience done by freewill? You do as you're told and where does that put your "divinely given" freewill?
Jesus: All things are permissible but not all things are wise. Without attaining wisdom what good is freewill?
Satan: What good is freewill? Were not Adam and Eve created wise?
Jesus: They didn't seek wisdom.
Satan: And now no man does. They are all driven by impulse.
Jesus: Abel, Enoch and even now as the Nephilim roam there is still Noah.
Satan: It's over the floodgates are open.
Jesus: Jehovah did not make Earth in vain. I'm aware of God's displeasure and even as the Nephilim grows God shall protect Noah. Zeus is just another one of your recruits but it only takes one witness to expose your slander and there will always be one.

The Philosophy Of Will Scene II

(in the Garden of Eden in front of the tree of knowledge of good and evil with Woman [Eve] and the serpent [Satan])
The Serpent: Woman
Woman: My husband calls me that
The Serpent: Is it not your name?
Woman: Yes, but how do you know it?
The Serpent: Is it also true that this Garden is yours?
Woman: It was given to my husband who in turn entrusts me with it.
The Serpent: So is it from any tree of the Garden that you may eat?
Woman: From any tree in the Garden we may eat except from the tree of knowledge of good and evil for to touch it we will positively die.
The Serpent: So why did you come over here?
Woman: I don't know I was just wandering.
The Serpent: Do you know why this solitary tree is forbidden out of all trees?
Woman: Because eating from it would mean death
The Serpent: Do you even know what death is?
Woman: It is the ceasing of existence.
The Serpent: Existence will not cease God knows that for a fact and that is why it is forbidden from you for in eating it you will have knowledge of good and evil, you will know like God does that existence cannot cease.
Woman: That makes sense but why wouldn't God tell us that? Perhaps I should ask Him why it is forbidden because I do not understand.
The Serpent: Why ask Him if you do not trust him?
Woman: I don't suppose I do trust Him after all it is called the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
(Woman takes the fruit and eats it as Adam sees her doing this)
Adam: Woman what are you doing?
Woman: Not dying.
Adam: So you're not.
(Adam takes a bite)
Woman: Do you feel God like?
Adam: No I feel vulnerable.
Woman: So do I.
Adam: I need protection, shelter.
Woman: So do I, give me that twig.
Adam: Why don't you get it if you're so wise?
Woman: Come on I feel naked
Adam: I'm getting out of here.
Woman: Where's that Serpent?
Adam: What Serpent?
Woman: The one who convinced me to eat from the tree.
Adam: You listened to a Serpent?
Woman: Don't yell at me.
(They run East)
Jehovah: Adam, Adam why are you hiding from the One who can see all?
Adam: I was hiding because I am naked and became ashamed.
Jehovah: How do you know you are naked? Who told you, you were?
Adam: I ate from the tree in the middle of the Garden Of Eden.
Jehovah: Why?
Adam: Because that Woman gave it to me to eat.
Woman: I did not you took it from me.
Jehovah: Silence, you have proven to be a disappointment. For the sake of your offspring you will live for a brief phase but you will positively die from this day and the life you shall have shall be of a diminished quality. No longer will food be in abundance but you shall labor, not only labor but also at times labor in vain for you took your responsibility in vain and Woman...
Woman: I only ate because the Serpent deceived me.
Jehovah: Nevertheless you listened without reason at the cost of your husband and offspring so on both their accounts your labor shall also increase and the Serpent shall crawl as the lowest of all Creation until a Righteous Seed shall rise to avenge his wrongdoing, his meddling is a bruise upon the heel that shall crush his head so that in which had empowered him for a moment shall destroy him forever. The Serpent's venom shall prove in vain, an empty substance.

The Philosophy Of Will Scene I

(in heaven with Jehovah, Jesus and Satan discussing amongst other angels the establishment of Earth)
Jehovah: Welcome my firstborns of all Creation, a privilege for all is in your midst, for in six phases we, by my guidance, will take energy of our cosmos and transform it into mass then into free will agents of organic life.
Satan: Why would it take six phases?
Jehovah: Because the interlocking elements must arrive in their proper sequence to support these free agents
Satan: What's so free about these so called "free agents" if we must build such a delicate universe for them? Are they supposed to be more glorious than us? Are we not free agents?
Jesus: Listen, every act in the creating process must be handled delicately in a matter of proper sequence; does not your objection take some form of structure even if the structure isn't soundly based in reason?
Satan: Is it wrong, Jesus, to question Jehovah?
Jesus: No, to question is to learn, but interrogation is a vain test of divinity if you chose not to understand.
Satan: If I am ignorant can it be my own fault? Or wouldn't the liability lie with He who created me?
Jesus: All Creation is made with something to obtain for, to strive for.
Satan: So that God will always laud over all Creation that He is the greatest and wisest?
Jesus: How can He who knows everything be capable of making one wiser than himself? For all there is to know originates from Him that originates all.
Satan: We could have been equals.
Jesus: It means more for us that God treats us as equals.
Satan: Does He? Then where do our suggestions go?
Jehovah: What I was about to suggest for you is that we create man in our image, a corporal representation of our Divine Spirits and we shall call it a soul.
Satan: I would suggest a test to see whether these souls are fit to exist, whether they are worthy of free will, a simple test of faith. If Jehovah is wise He will create beings that would recognize His wisdom therefore place a restriction without cause or reason and tell the free agents they must abstain for the sake of their existence, if they choose to disobey they shall be destroyed and me the victor.
Jehovah: What about the offspring?
Satan: What offspring?
Jesus: Didn't see that coming did you?
Jehovah: One of the main features of this new Creation is its own proliferation so that they can recreate themselves in billions of unique forms all glorifying the diversity of Creation itself so the glory of Creation shall never cease ever, but as regards to this test Satan let it be that the man that fails this test shall be condemned but you are all witnesses to the accusation and exhilaration of my Creation in that man shall not be wiped from this Earth.

Poetry Post (John's) 316

Failure Of The System
What culture rewards the pure and wise
Territorial brute force always steals the prize
Easy conquests runs the machines of our enterprise
As leaders die by integrity or live by compromise
Catering to the forces that demoralise
And blinds the heart of society's eyes
So that we see but can't recognize
The evil that we publicize

Nomadic Parasites
My heart is a nomadic parasite
Camping on a new prospect every night
I'm looking for something symbiotic
But finding a host is too chaotic
It's not that I can't earn my right to live
I have a lot of assets I'm ready to give
But I don't have the gift of adaptability
So in the jungle of love I'm a liability
So sleeping like a bat in a cave
I worry only about my own soul to save

Dreams Undetermined
When I dream of you
And all the things you do
I can see how you nurture and care
And I feel the dark strains of your softly coarse hair
And I hear you converse so intellectually wise
As I stare into your gentle piercing almond eyes
And from lips soft and full to my tender touch
I hear you stand firm to the beliefs that mean so much
But we can still share our disguarding wit
And enjoy the laughter and the sight of your cheeks fully lit
One day I shall rest my head on your tight muscular thighs
And trace its curavceous fruit without a sense of compromise
One day love will make us vulnerable
But sacred vows of monogamy will keep it honorable
And no restraints on our passion's fire
Except to be as the other one's desire
But is this true love or a dirty fetish
An honorable goal or a selfish wish
But I believe its love even if we're yet to meet
Because what I see in my mind is all that's concrete

Poetry Post 315

Twine Of Motives
A war is waging between my thoughts and feelings
Layered in a mesh its hard to pull the peelings
Good and bad motives seem outside and within
I can't reach my heart to see where to begin
In life so lost with confusion
Perhaps morals are merely an illusion

My Father
The man who raised me to know wrong from right
Is getting old and losing his foresight
In the war of life he's giving up the fight
He felt he needed to lead and command
I would have followed his lending leading hand
But what I really needed of him he couldn't understand
I just wanted someone who would listen and care
And try his hardest to always be there
And he succeeded but was not aware
We lived to have the other's approval
Only to be devastated by the other's removal
Giving in to death's unforgiving reproval

Detours
I may have not always been good
But I've been everything I could
It's hard wandering looking for where I came
When so many forks in the road all look the same
And every wrong turn is another disgrace
With another road you have to retrace
So each wrong brings more unraveling
Making a vain journey of life I've been traveling

The Philosophy Of Will

My new 6 scene miniplay is a Biblical based work that I worked out based on the question about faith that puzzles me the most. What is free will? How the concept seems to so different from Jehovah's and Satan's perspective. Whether it is real or not? Whether it is a good thing or not? The play is these ideas being talked out in my head assigning the thoughts to what I think is God's and Satan's point of view and resolving within myself how I really feel about the issue as far as I can understand it.

New TV Show Idea: Bible Tested

This idea for a tv show is for the History Channel specifically and it's called Bible Tested. It's about putting extraordinary Biblical texts (Old and New Testament the canonical 66 books) into context and figured what is meant by the writings and seeing if there is literal truth or a symbolic meaning and seeing the truth that was meant to be seen in the Holy Scriptures. For example a first season guide:
1) The Flood- look into the measurements of the Ark see if it was practical in making and also in surviving a world deluge based on the material and structure of it described in the Bible and whether the ancestral parents of all Earth's land animals could fit inside.
2) The Ark Of The Covenant- looking into what this key structure of the Old Testament would look like and what was it's functional and symbolic significance the meaning of the colored threads, gold bearrings stones and recurrent numeric themes
3) The Garden Of Eden- looking into where it would have likely been by the 4 rivers and where they meet up testing the geologically and geographically location of it while contemplating whether it was before or after the continents drift. Whether a debate over Asia, Africa or Europe being the birth of civilization would make sense if the Garden only existed on the super continent Pangaea
4) City of Sodom- contemplating where it was and what happened and what were the specific sins that supposedly destroyed including how it originated the term Sodomy and what its original meaning was as well as understanding it's accusations of pedophilia, rape, bestiality, xenophobia and a cruel violent militia
5) The Whale Of Jonah- understanding the probability of a whale being in the Mediterranean Sea during a storm that would swallow Jonah and carry him 3 days before throwing him up and why would Nineveh scare Jonah that much and why it would it end up being forgiven by God
6) The Writing On The Wall- looking at how Biblical history and secular history collided at the Persians taking over Babylon in a single night and whether they match up reliably
7) The Genesis- looking into the sequence of the Creation Account and whether it agrees with what science describes as the beginning of Earthly life and whether the Account is literal or symbolic in the term "days"
8) The World Of Isaiah- Looking at what the world under the Prince of Peace would mean and whether heavenly or earthly and whether real or symbolic specifically the texts of "beat their swords into plowshares" "no resident will say I am sick" "the lamb shall lie down with the lion" "He did not create it merely for nothing"
9) The Four Horsemen- looking into what are the details of the End and seeing whether it is an End or a New Beginning taking a historical and sociological view of how the first horseman would lead to the next and what this implies about future events and how they would differ from other catastrophes or whether it would go by at first undetected
10) The Day The Sun Stood Still- is there an astronomical account of an extended Earth day or whether this could happen and why does it say the Sun stood still when it always does was it ignorance or simplified metaphor for current civilization's own understanding.
11) The Matriarchal Line- looking at the female ancestral line of Jesus and why such women were part of the lineage of the Divine Seed; Sarah, Rebekah, Leah, Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba and Mary
12) The Circumcision- What was it's significance and was it self-mutilation or a medical procedure
13) The Kosher Diet- looking at its practicality and whether it was knowable to any other civilization at the time and whether it is an overall truly above average dietary law
14) Blood Fire and Water- What Judaic law had to say about hygiene and how it was practical and how it predated Hippocrates' theories which would confirm it's law

No Offense Taken "Annual Contracts"

(a national reservation park office with the head of human resources and a worker)
Mr. Milton: Hello Ahmed
Ahmed: Hi Mr. Milton, what is it you wanted to talk to me about? Pardon the informality I'm just nervous because I heard this wasn't going to go well.
Mr. Milton: Probably. The reason why I called you in is because of your annual contracts you have to sign to continue working in a government funded enterprise.
Ahmed: Yes I signed it.
Mr. Milton: Well this is about a particular article of the contract.
Ahmed: Which one?
Mr. Milton: Do remember signing a confirmation that you Ahmed are not a terrorist nor have you ever given money to any terrorist organization or charity?
Ahmed: Yes that's on everybody's contracts, right?
Mr. Milton: Probably
Ahmed: Probably?
Mr. Milton: I don't write the contracts we contract that work over to Saudi Arabia.
Ahmed: Saudi Arabia?
Mr. Milton: A British company based in India. Anyway the problem is you signed the conformation that you are not a terrorist.
Ahmed: So the problem is...
Mr. Milton: You did exactly as a terrorist would do.
Ahmed: By signing that I am not a terrorist.
Mr. Milton: Yes terrorists are very tricky people they wouldn't just say they were a terrorist.
Ahmed: So if I didn't sign I would still have a job?
Mr. Milton: I will neither conform nor deny that, in case you try to apply to another government funded job. Now if you don't mind that man in the long overcoat will escort to your car.
Ahmed: I came by bus
Mr. Milton: I'm sorry I meant he will escort you to an undisclosed location (another man walks in) Hello Mr. Marin welcome to human resources I'm here to train you on your new job as I am about to retire.
Mr. Marin: You guys hire aliens.
Mr. Milton: Yes, most of them legal.
Mr. Marin: What if you guys were to hire actual aliens.
Mr. Milton: What about it?
Mr. Marin: Well would it still be called human resources.
Mr. Milton: Do you smoke pot Mr. Marin.
Mr. Marin: Yes
Mr. Milton: Okay

Movie Idea: My Father The...

Title: My Father The...
Genre: Dramatic Action
Plot: A father and spy (Jason Moon) is thought to be killed during espionage work according to enemies in North Korea. The North Koreans report him as dead to the country's media outlets outing him as an example of their mission's success even though they know no absolute proof he is for a fact dead. The American government discreetly tells his wife that her husband may be alive but they cannot leak out that information because if they can find him before the Koreans they'll need the information he got. So the mother is instructed to raise her 2 year old son to believe his father walked out on them if he is still missing but not confirmed dead as he gets older. He can only know the truth if he makes it home or is confirmed dead. The father Harold Jackson did survive the assassination attempt by blowing up the building he was in before the Koreans did from the other end of the building less weaker explosives causing the building to fall down in a dynamo effect which the Koreans wouldn't notice because the screen in which they see the detonation can only shown an explosion of some relative strength went off assuming it was the back end of the explosion which has weaker force rather than thinking it was the initial point of a weaker explosion. Having survived Harold now realizes what the CIA would do in this scenario giving similar situations he saw in training and initiation. Not wanting his young son to grow up with the scars of thinking he was abandoned he decides to do the radical thing and not try to cross Korean borders to another country's American embassy or contact a meeting to be pick up there by radio signals. Instead he boards a boat deporting Koreans into human trafficking to a different parts of America some will be sent to places from California to Maine from an undisclosed port in the Pacific Coast. From there he will find his way home to Annapolis, Maryland. However trying to escape pass the human traffickers he noticed and simply shot and discarded as unknown unwilling slave with no background check obviously, thus leaving him to die a more humiliating anonymous death and a family that doesn't know the truth.

Poetry Post 314

The Cat Connection
In your wild eyes I see my reflection
My dreams of freedom and protection
You have achieved a life of perfection
Yet you still seek out our affection
Thus no ulterior motives in our connection
You and me live free and love free
Simply for the joy of each other's company
Only for matters of the heart do I need you or you need me
And yet this is the secret of our compatibility
Two solos merging a duet harmoniously

Delusions Of Fantasy
If you pay a fee
To indulge in a fantasy
Keep a little mystery
Don't look for intimacy
It's only suppose to feel not be perfect
But getting too close you'll find a defect
Something that makes the situation seem suspect

Conflict & Domination
Whites who don't support the whites are called traitors
But blacks who don't betray their own are called white haters
A man supporting his wife is called henpecked
But a woman who raises doubts is regarded as unchecked
Anyone can choose polytheism, monotheism or atheism
As long as the principles don't contradict with militant patriotism
It just seems like the conflict isn't man against man
It is just a matter of domination of the other man

Poetry Post 313

Kohl's Lingerie Model
Beautiful in a way
That's too subtle to say
Your smile could mean a million different things
Wondering if you understand the desire it brings
You look like the every girl next door
But somehow unlike any I've seen before
You have a look that is its own trend
As you look like the ultimate girlfriend
Your natural beauty playing tricks on my mind
Wondering how a beauty so natural be so hard to find

The End
Bulging gut and atrocious teeth
Not much to hide the frail psyche underneath
Alone stewing in my own insecurities
No gifts of golden opportunities
Shameful inside and out
A will succumbed to doubt

Reflections Of Temptation
Deep inside I know I'm no good
Even with knowledge I don't do as I should
Maybe fleshly intimidation
Hinders my spiritual meditation
That I actually know is true
But it doesn't make a defense easy to do

Poetry Post 312 (Discouraged but continuing)

Don Quixote's Blues
Why do I believe every cliché
Like truth will prevail and love will find a way
It only fertilizes my cynicism every day
And each day it's chances passes ever more away
If believing against reality makes one insane
Then idealism is the world's greatest pain
Because it works on what isn't there to maintain
While you're not able to make yourself sustain

Ode To The Madness That Brings Suicide
Suicide comes when pain has no relief
And when one dies it spreads a fire of grief
As one questions life there comes disbelief
So much damage in a time so brief
Because suicide's contagious
It robs us of life's stages
Expurgates life's pages
Bringing madness to wise sages

Shallow Heart
Mirror Mirror On the wall
Can you make this judgment call
Mirror Mirror tell me what is true
Tell me what I'm suppose to do
I have no conscience of my own
I'm only right if I'm not alone
I cannot make it or pull it through
Every situation appears brand new
Shallow Shallow Heart I must disown
Shallow Shallow are your ways prone

Movie Idea "Friends For Benefits"

Title: Friends For Benefits

The internal dispute however causes a final conflict in which a clerk winds up dead and the thief goes to jail from a recent robbing, getting the clerks off the hook with management and the surviving clerks get a split of the money and are able through their heroic publicity able to leave the store and find more financially secure work.
Characters:

Best Oscar Moments

1) Michael Moore's Bowling For Columbine 2002 acceptance speech (the first moment of truth in years Bush-Cheney-Ashcroft-Rumsfeld bs the war was fought for fictitious reasons and history has exonerated Michael Moore but the public hasn't yet.)
2) Roberto Begnini wins the Oscar for Best Foreign Film
3) Adrian Brody kisses Halle Berry (an Oscar and a public make out session with one of the hottest women in Hollywood gives a geeky white boy a lot to hope for)

The After Effect

Keith Andersen:
Hi welcome to Channel 9 news I'm Keith Andersen
There's some major breakthroughs going on in Walden
And a lot to recap for those who just tuned in
Walden farmers signed with Raleigh's Tobacco Company
In a measure to preserve the town's economy
But the bulk of the wealth went to the CEOs at Raleigh
So Neil Zimmerman unionized the farm hands
And sent a message to Raleigh of their demands
But this simple act cost them their jobs and their lands
Exploited, unemployed and homeless contributed to higher economic unrest
Deprived of power and means they salted their former farms in protest
Now Raleigh's Company will lose profits buying new land in which to invest

My Youtube idea All Sheldons Have Asperger Syndrome

I plan on recording audio to the All Cats Have Asperger Syndrome by Kathy Hoopman and adding a scene from The Big Bang Theory featuring Sheldon acting in accordance with each page of the book. Taking 67 pages into 67 scenes will be hard since only the first season is on DVD and I don't have a video burner to take clips and edit in audio but in September the second season comes out and I already have about half the scenes picked out.

New Jobs

Thoreau:
I found a new job with decent pay
In a town just fifty miles away
We can pack and be there today
Fossey:
Do you know if Neil and Pegi will make it okay
Is there a place for them to stay
Thoreau:
For now they're going to live with his brother in Green Bay
Unfortunately there's not much agricultural opportunity
As it is we're both moving to a bigger city
But at least they're both a green community

Paths

Pegi:
Now that, that is done where do we go from here?
Farmer Neil:
The answer to that is never really clear
You just got to prepare to face the fear
Thoreau:
Whatever will be will just be
We are not the masters of reality
We choose our paths without seeing the destiny

No Offense Taken "Everybody Expects...(a tribute to Monty Python)"

(doorbell ringing)
Man: (gets off the couch to the door) Oh my god it's those damn Witnesses again (answers the door to two ordinarily dressed men) Oh thank God I thought you guys were Jehovah's Witnesses
Knocker One: I know (two men undress into suit clothing) EVERYBODY EXPECTS JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES!!!
Man: (whining) Why must you do this?
Knocker Two: For a very basic reason Scriptural Command!
Knocker One: And concern for the well being of man's relationship with God!
Knocker Two: And faith in God's will!
Knocker One: And rigorous routine.
Knocker Two: And because we don't have much else to do (Man shuts door and reenters house)

Knocker Two: We'll be right back (follows Knocker One)

Pegi's Lament

Pegi:
Goodbye my dear Walden
And to all the memories held in
Did our innocence have to end?
Fossey:
The innocence had already died
Evil converted good men to the dark side
Now in lamentation penance is applied

A Personal Ad

In a little while I will try to make it as a writer by first publishing with Author House and move into screenplays by joining the Writer's Guild of America. And when or if I ever get to make films or have bestselling books I would like the following female celebrities to meet me because I always dreamed of meeting an artistic/expressive person to fall in love with and everybody has celebrity crushes usually more than a few so don't think low of me for this list of hopefuls, but meet me if you want especially if you are on my dream girlfriend list
(five deal breakers: smokers (strict rule), alcoholics, actively pro-choice (personal value but okay if you don't agree so long as you don't plan on having an abortion), gun freaks (another personal value), eating disorder (I've been through that drama personally), racist (another personal value))

Salt March

Thoreau:
We will make sure tobacco production comes to a halt
We shall pour on our polluted land twelve trucks full of salt
The chemical waste planted in the dirt already shows who's at fault
Farmer Neil:
Tobacco bamboozled us out of our land
Forced into a situation we couldn't understand
Where our lives we mistrusted in their command
We've poisoned Mother Earth
And she can now no longer give birth
We mistook her and what she's worth
Thoreau:
So the salt is for the mourning of the unborn
A reminder to us what we've yet to learn
And until the day we do we are doomed and forlorn

No Offense Taken "President Wartime Press Conference"

Interviewer: Mr. President you say God told you to go ahead with the war?
President: Yes He told me He would back this war for it was part of His plan.
Interviewer: He said it was part of His plan?
President: Yes it was prophesied specifically in the Bible.
Interviewer: Where at?
President: In Revelation
Interviewer: What is the context of this prophesy?
President: Something about Armageddon I believe He said

Wives

Pegi:
Fossey did you hear what Thoreau and Neil planned today?
They're going to ruin the fields with a dozen salt trunks on their way
Fossey:
Yeah a national stunt to get the nation to hear what we have to say
Pegi:
You're okay with our farm's desecration?
Fossey:
It's not desecration it's a demonstration
Anyway the soil's tainted by the chemicals of that evil corporation
The soil's already unfit to grow vegetable produce
Raleigh saw to it tobacco would be it's only use
We are not destroying something we didn't already lose

Carthage

Thoreau:
Hey Neil how is it going looking for a new location?
Farmer Neil:
That depends on if I can get a new vocation
Thoreau:
What about your original avocation
Farmer Neil:
Farmers today can't get enough work in the independent market
And corporations really don't learn to forgive and forget
And every industry has tobacco ties who deem me a threat
Thoreau:
Well when in Rome do as the Romans I say
Salt the ground like Carthage you've lost it anyway
You may not take down tyrants but you don't have to obey
Farmer Neil:
You're right they may now legally own the land
But they still have no authority to demand
Everything they got was at our command

Poetry Post 311 (soon to retire)

Free Verse Of A Trapped Mind
My parents are hypocrites
They give an illusion of options
With implicit boundaries
They want me to be them
When they rejected their parents
Where's the justice
It's lost in cruel irony
God gave me free will
But no one wants me to exercise it
So screw my free will and give me death

Artistic Disclaimer
I'm not self indulgent just self reflective
I write strictly of my own perspective
I am not a stooge or a corporate fool
I use the mass media as my tool
Whatever I say I speak true
I never waiver in my point of view
And from speaking truth I shall never cease
Because I have too far to go till I reach my masterpiece

Poetic Farewell
My writings of poems has come to an end
Now to the readers searching for a friend
This volume to you I send
Now as the ink pen of my brain runs dry
And life goes on passing me by
To you loyal readers I say goodbye

Legal Theft

Thoreau:
Something is wrong with the world today
If a company can just take another man's life away
Any lone criminal would of had hell to pay
But the laws protect mafias, pirates and mobs
As they steal another's wealth by taking their jobs
Larceny is lawful depending on who robs
But now's the time this is the hour
I see the dangers from the watchtower
Now is the changing of the guards a changing of power

Legal Advice

Thoreau:
So Mr Dawson do you think we have a case?
Mr Dawson:
How would you pay my legal fee in the first place?
Thoreau:
Isn't that question a little off base?
Anyway you said we can pay when we win
Mr Dawson:
Well we won't we've lost before we can begin
Thoreau:
A worthy cause is still worth the time to invest in
Mr Dawson:
Thoreau you can't make a living on a worthy cause
I know of all the legal torts and read every contract clause
And on all technical levels the company obeyed all the bylaws

Failure

Farmer Neil:
Things are not going as we predicted
Every farmer in the union just got evicted
Thoreau:
But your contract didn't imply unions were restricted
Farmer Neil:
No but thanks to that corporate shill
We were all signed and hired at will
They can fire and evict without any obligations to fulfill
Thoreau:
So basically they can fire you all anytime they feel
That doesn't sound like a legal deal
We could get a lawyer to file an appeal
Farmer Neil:
And how would we pay for the legal fee
I'm going to appeal to the tobacco company
See if they'd consider rehiring me

No Offense Taken "Cyrano's Witnesses"

(porch steps)
Cyrano's Witness #1: Hello I'm just going door to door to promote my local book club would you be interested in reading and discussing Cyrano de Bergerac?
Home Owner: Which translation?
Cyrano's Witness #2: The Lowell Bair translation of 1972.
Home Owner: No I wouldn't then I only read the King James translation. (shuts door)

CEO Meeting

Raleigh:
Hello my fellow CEOs sorry about the ACLU's backlash
But our product is fool proof against a market crash
It's more addictive than heroine, users would find boycotts too rash
CEO #1:
All the same we have union busters to appeal for government investigation
This isn't our first proletariat instigation
CEO #2:
But if we make this political non-smokers can provoke new litigation
CEO #3:
Not likely since we live in a constant state of social apathy
Citizens don't care what's allowed as long as it doesn't hurt their own liberty
We can continue to sell death in the spirit of living free

Poetry Post 310 (next to last peotry blogpost!!!!)

Masochist
I mop up other people's small problems like a dish rag
I take other people's hostility like a punching bag
I help acquaintances worse off than me
But my "true friends" are my worst enemy
Acquaintances see me as a gentleman they can trust
Friends look at me like I'm a slave of lust
My acquaintances I can confide in when I'm hurt
But at home I'm a rejected pervert
Sinners of lust are punished by sinners of wrath
Defense mechanisms of guilt deter my path
As I defend an already bruised ego
For those who don't even half know

Road To Conquering
How hard is hard enough
The road to recovery is too rough
The battle is my own
So I have to conquer it alone
I don't want others to get in the fight
Even if it may seem right
I can't carry this heavy load covered in fears
With the faces of disgust, misunderstanding, pity and tears
Dragging behind me all day and all night
If I go alone I alone lose the fight

(this poem was in part from being falsely accused of something terrible and not having anyone who believed me by my side at the time because it sounded like something I would do and other parts about the general disapproval I felt from various adult authorities for going through puberty)
Capital Punishment
Joey has been a bad boy today
Let's take all his pride and joy away
Let's tear his flesh and break his bones apart
Let's fry his brain and freeze his broken heart
This punishment is still too low
For a boy with a libido
When did he become such a sick pervert
Joey deserves to get himself hurt
What good in the world has come out of being in love
Though it was divinely created from God above
It is only a myth that there is a beauty of birth
We were not commanded to populate the entire Earth

Agricultural Cultivation Laborers Union

Thoreau:
Welcome to the Agricultural Cultivation Laborers Union
We are uploading this video on the web so the world can tune in
I'm not a farmer but have access to the conditions they are working in
This is farmer and president Neil Zimmerman
He's going to outline the union's goals and its plan
Farmer Neil:
Thank you Thoreau these are the goals of a years time span
The tobacco companies promise high wages as an incentive to grow
But when every farmer at the poverty line tries the wages drop low
But addiction still costs a fortune for those using the tobacco
So the ACLU district 36 is on a mission
That farmers always get paid on commission
And get government grants for those farming cheaper crops on a moral decision
And we recommend a state maximum acreage to grow tobacco on
And the farmers willing can rotate on that opportunity every season
So that economically and ecologically everyone's helped within reason

Poetry Post 309

Extermination
I wish we would look at the insects with distinction
Instead of poisoning them all into extinction
I wish our poison had the power to discern the termite from the ant and the wasp from the bee
I wish we had the wisdom to discern which creatures had the right to be free
I wish our sense of justice wouldn't let us be so apathetic to the rights of God's creation
I wish we had God's love so we could be patient enough to evaluate the situation

Desperate Sexual Masochism
I am a dirty selfish lover
Your body's not mine to discover
I am nothing more than your sex slave
Do with my body as your wrathful lust may crave
All I ask is for fleshly intimate discipline
So I can feel your heat against my skin
My whole soul is for you to bite, claw, spit and hit
As long as I feel you there's pleasure in all the pain I get

Lonely Ones
Living in a small dump of a chicken coop
Eating Chef Boyardee's Lonely Hearts Tomato Soup
But I need something more like Chicken Soup For The Soul
To finally make myself whole
I've come to find the battle of the sexes
Stems from the wars of the exes
Our hearts never budge
When holding a grudge
Our hearts will never change position
Till we learn to love without condition
We have to relearn what is innate
Once we've been taught to hate

The Union

Farmer Neil:
Hey Thoreau I'm sorry about how I talked to you
Everything you said was right and I knew
But in desperation I hoped it wasn't true
Thoreau:
It may be true but it got me fired
And all the fightings just left me tired
And a burnt out man is seldom hired
Farmer Neil:
Perhaps you could help with my new enterprise
I'm trying to get the farmers to unionize
Thoreau:
Well that certainly is a surprise
But I hate tobacco so why ask me?
Farmer Neil:
Because from within unions regulate the industry
They can't sell our products without our productivity
Thoreau:
And if they evict you from their land
They can't meet the supply and demand
So their profits are at your command

Poetry Post 308

Church Divisions & State Unions
If my words seem at all cliché
They're just as true anyway
But if it is so clear God wants peace
Then why aren't the churches trying to make the wars cease
With each division of every congregation
Man builds a constitution for a new nation
Man ain't following God's commission
To do and follow our Christian mission
If we know God is love
Then hate can only be conquered from above
With free will and mind show love is the ultimate destiny
Show yourselves as God meant the world to be, in harmony

Insomniacs Appeal
Laying in my bed
About half way dead
Demons dwelling in my head
Crying as my heart bled
Because of the sin I can't relent
But always tried to repent
Seems to be death bent
I wish someone could take the hint
I'm driven to addiction
By my constant confliction
An ongoing friction
Between real pain and euphoric fiction
I'm fading away
Man of Easy Outs appending Judgment Day
Looking for new words to say
While I come off cliché

Society
As for morals in society today
It has lost its innocent way
No one truly loves their fellow neighbor
And no one tells the truth anymore
They all lost their sense that Jah is still here
And that His time has come near
They still walk in their adulterous ways
Even to the end of their days
With no care for others
They steal from their sisters and brothers
Even as far to take each other's life
Just adding to each other's strife
But they just look to golden idols
To be their role models
There is no honor left in the human race
When all their morals are out of place

Neil's Lament

Pegi:
Hey how's your crop growing Neil?
Farmer Neil:
I think I was suckered into a crooked deal
At least our other crops never made us lose a meal
Pegi:
What about the paycheck from Raleigh's Company?
Farmer Neil:
Everything I thought was free
Came with a hidden fee
Instead of a mortgage we have rent
And every seed and chemical is taken out of our payment
We may have a home but not a cent

Poetry Post 307

Spared
Everyday the world seduces me to sin
Like a raging alcoholic I give in
But then I see God looking at me angry but discerning
Always just leaving me with a warning
I fall down speechless as I stumbled
From an experience that made a once proud man humbled
I promise never to give in
But I grow desperate as the vow grows tiresome the cycle starts over again

Death Plea
Why does God let me live
I don't have anything to give
The world has nothing to benefit from me
There is nothing I have to make me worthy
Nothing has come from what I have said
The world would be better if I was dead
God must have some purpose left for me
Or Satan might just want to see me in misery

Virtue & Lust
Do you believe in virtue and lust
An innocence protected by lack of self trust
Maintaining your morals to maintain your love as a must
Trying to show you somehow deserve
But afraid when the day comes you'll lose your nerve
Or scare her away with feelings so hard to conserve
But led by the trust of the other's modesty
And their full disclosure and tactful honesty
You're headed humbly for a higher harmony

Spousal Support

Fossey:
Did you tell Rachel that you were unemployed?
Thoreau:
No its been a bad day she's already annoyed
If I told her we had to move she'd be destroyed
Fossey did I ever disappoint you?
Fossey:
How could you when you always fight for what is true?
Thoreau:
You mean what happens to be our point of view
Fossey:
No reality and reason are on our side
It is by that truth that we abide
You can't lose when they can't take your pride

After School

Thoreau:
Hey honey what happened at school today?
Rachel:
Some things I'd rather not say
Can I just go out to play?
Thoreau:
Sure but first just relax
I just want to know the facts
Rachel:
Well today I was reading them The Lorax
Thoreau:
Well that's a very fine book
Rachel:
Not when everyone's giving you a dirty look
Thoreau:
Well I appreciate the courage you took
Rachel:
The teacher said I was naive to believe that hippie philosophy
And that I shouldn't think so evil of industry
And everyone in class seems to completely agree
Thoreau:
Neither me, you or Dr. Seuss said all industry is bad
Rachel:
But they said we were hypocrites which made me mad
They said your views were corrupting me Dad
Thoreau:
Never mind what they say
You did the right thing today
Now you can go out and play

False Idols/True Hope
Don't sacrifice to Moloch, don't sacrifice to Baal
Pagan gods always have and always will fail
Don't be taken in
Seduced to the ultimate sin
You know you will never win
With a god wanting the blood of your children
Praise Jehovah even when others test your dedication
Abraham and Job had faith in the resurrection
When innocents suffer it is not God's will but Satan's
Who plants fear, doubt and hate in the heart of man's
Exercise faith and follow Christ's Way
The redemption of suffering is at Judgment Day

Suburban Death Trap
Welcome to the suburban Death Trap
Where identical houses cover the map
Where you have nothing to do and no one has anything to say
Your future's in the past because tomorrow's just another yesterday
And every job has a name tag and a uniform
And the void of options forces you to conform
Even the slightest deviation makes you a freak
As people watch you walk the street you get a double peek
And the people wonder what you're about to do
Because suburbia has nowhere to go to

Fulfillment
America believes in God and believes itself a Christian nation
It believes it can do anything except make reparation
It believes it can justify genocide and massacre
But it can't spare a few pennies to feed the needy and poor
Well I guess the widow, the orphan, the alien and the oppressed don't have much longer to fear
Because the wars, the famines and the plagues show Armageddon might already be here

Father/Daughter

Rachel:
Daddy are you feeling well?
Thoreau:
Oh hello there Rachel
No I'm not how could you tell?
Rachel:
I'm seven I'm not dumb
My question is how come?
Thoreau:
The town's in danger and they don't see the problem
The economy's in trouble and they think tobacco's the answer
But what happens when the pollution gives them cancer
The medical bills alone would make things worse than before
Rachel:
Daddy I miss Grandpa too
But you can't let it destroy you
Thoreau:
Then what am I suppose to do

Poetry Post 305

Outcast
Walking across a crowded street
Insulted by everyone I meet
Nobody to love or care for me
There is no love as far as I can see
I must find a way out of here
I must leave the land of jeer
I am imprisoned by society
How can I burst through the walls to be free

Becoming A Whore
Starting out you were the family's little princess
They all loved you in your ballerina dress
But that was before the domestic distress
Before it all came into a chaotic spiraling mess
Your working mom died of cancer
So Dad did double shifts working away while you're missing her
People weren't there so it taught the money meant more
Yet they all became shock to find you a whore
How could they not see your fall into deceitful decadence
Not your stepmom who beat you in your neighbor's presence
Not your "lover" who stole your innocence
Not your father with all his absence
It did not mean you were evil because you gave into sin
Your family, your school, your religion gave nothing to give faith in
But did the drugs and the sex and the booze fill the dark holes within
Is anything better than before you sold yourself to men

Assumptions About Men Seeking Courtship
What is it about me that is so hard for you to understand
Why do you trust stereotypes over evidence at first hand
You think all men only think about sex
But if you ever thought about it you'd see some men are more complex
I've never misused anyone I cherish
Yet you assume I'm too selfish
You won't trust those who seem so socially inept
But have you looked at the people in your past you've accept
All I say might just seem bitter and jaded
But you'd understand if our roles were traded
You would resent other people's objections
If assumptions were the basis of other's rejections

No Help

Thoreau:
Am I the only one who finds it obscene
To live in a town of cigarettes and gasoline
The EPA ain't helping things go green
Deforestation is wasting the assets of our economy
To destroy the resources of our local ecology
Consumers and workers dying young and poor are just yet to be

Poetry Post 304

Kari II
To Kari my true and wonderful friend
I know if I seek more our friendship shall end
But I can restrain my love from you
If only avoidance was something I could do
But if I hide myself our friendship would still end
But if I confessed I could never be called your friend

Confused & Broken
You seemed as caring as a friend could be
You said you had faith in me
I almost believed it was true
I almost loved you
But now my thoughts are in a mix
From all of your stupid tricks
My hopes and dreams are shattered
When I realized that they just didn't matter
This probably seems like overreacting on your end
Since you never made any bonds with me except as a friend
But when you love someone you can't respect
And I'm only a friend what do you expect

Last Days
Satanic influence sweeping the broader social scale
Kingdoms corrupted come to rise and fail
With the establishment in self destruction
The demons have prolific production
Free to terrorize individual moral sanity
Seeking peace within and without becomes a vanity
There's no clarity in company or solitude
Any space inside or out Satan is free to intrude

Quitting

The Gazette Editor:
Thoreau I need you in my office right away
Thoreau:
I'm sensing you have some bad news to say
The Gazette Editor:
It's about your editorial yesterday
It vilified that new tobacco company
In this kind of town it has a certain economy
That relies on that form of industry
Thoreau:
What happened to the other forms of agriculture?
The Gazette Editor:
Tobacco is the only crop making money anymore
Thoreau:
Then what's selling over at the grocery store?
The Gazette Editor:
It's not keeping us afloat in ad revenue
At least not like tobacco is willing to do
So you better just quit if you don't change your point of view
Thoreau:
Well then consider this my resignation
Because I won't stay for any sort of compensation
I never wanted to work for a tobacco corporation

Land Of Fantasy
When I'm at school bored as can be
I go into my Land of Fantasy
Now I've let go and I may wander free
Living in the Land of Fantasy
I am wandering about in this land so free
Talking to all the friendly people I see
All living together in peace and harmony
Playing together in the Land of Fantasy
All things lovely as could be
All in harmony in the Land of Fantasy
Then back to the Land of Reality
Pain, anger, and injustice is all I can see
But no worry or threat to me
When I go to bed I'm back to the Land of Fantasy
All in peace again I lay free
Back in the Land of Fantasy

School Bully
School bullies use to ruin my life
They only added to my strife
They used to get away with a lie
So they could continue to make me cry
What good was it for them to give me abuse
It can't be of any use
What good were your foolish notions
It only caused hurt emotions
Will their disrespecting human life
Ever get them a loving wife
Hurting others is not the way for success
Nor does it make you holy or divinely bless
After all those years I had to run and hide
After years of being a victim of lost pride
After years and years of pain
I finally have my pride regain

Toyland
Building a city so grand
By the name of Toyland
Building each house made of Lego's
Watching the city as it grows
Giving a life to each little toyman
Compared to realism, Toyland is far better than
With each toy a friend
Until the play time comes to an end

Warnings

Thoreau:
I already smell something evil in the air
A scent of danger in a world that doesn't care
Apathy can cause things courage couldn't dare
I've alerted the town in the local gazette
That this move is something to regret
But they haven't seen the signs yet
I have to try the Mayor again
But the secretary won't let me in
Just another battle I couldn't win

Poetry Post 302

No Longer Cheerful Days
The better half of my life
Has been given more than my share of strife
The happiness was always fleeting
Pain always gave an unfriendly greeting
But when I was a young boy I always had someone to turn to
Pain was just someone I hardly knew
But now no longer are my cheerful days
It was all just a childhood phase

Adolescents Theme
Doing my best to do a good job
My mom calling me lazy and a slob
I try and try again to please her
Never getting a moment of leisure
She's never happy to be with me
She'll criticize anything she'll see
Always trying to lead a happy life
But constant work from her sends me strife

At Night
At night I drink away
The problems that haunt me at day
I go into dreams
Where nothing is as painful as it seems
Where love is around
And peace can be found
But awake to a brand new day
Just waiting to drink my problems away

To The Mayor

Thoreau:
Hello I'm Thoreau here to see Mayor Thompson
Tobacco is ruining our town and something's got to be done
Mayor's Secretary:
I don't see why the industry's helping everyone
Thoreau:
This goes beyond agriculture and the economy
But even so the farmers are headed toward poverty
You just need to have the foresight to see
When every farmer is growing that worthless weed
We'll grow more than they demand or need
And the factories will exploit wages for their greed
Mayor's Secretary:
Isn't that true for every industry?
Thoreau:
No there's always a demand for the necessary
Even many harmless forms of luxury
But tobacco drains the resources of the land
Mayor's Secretary:
But smokers will keep it in high demand
Thoreau:
Not when the soil's depleted you understand
And if the Mayor doesn't do something there'll be hell to pay
Mayor's Secretary:
Well the Mayor is too busy anyway
You'll have to try another day

Racism In The City
In a dark subway a black man stands alone
Trying to earn a dime playing his saxophone
To get his bread and water having to make it on his own
While a white man makes it rich by being his clone
While laying half dead on her knees
Is a poor homeless Chinese
While men of the New World can do as they please
Ripping the Old World land with ease
And a down and out Jew trying to find some peace in it all
As he watches society fall
Seeing the discrimination put upon him and the others down the car hall
As a white Christian man makes the call
And out in the cold street pushing a cart
Is an Arab with a saddened heart
As the ignorant break him away part by part
And the power hungry American makes millions in his super mart
Because the suits get the higher pay
And for the rest, the sky of the Land of the Free will always be gray

Modern World Blues
It seems today that it's too hard to even try
It all seems that we should lie down to die
Whatever happened to what was good
What makes it so hard to do what we should
I can't even recall what was the date
When I realized this world had all this hate
Now all we get is bad news
Is all part of the modern world blues
What had ever happened to the good old days
It was so long ago it feels like a haze
But yet I still know it existed one day
And I sure hope it comes back to me some way
Every day you wake up by your breakfast time
You turn on your tv to see the daily crime
And have you ever felt it was a shame
That to so many life was just a game
Well they say life was always this way
They don't remember that golden day
You go to work and you find out how sick people are
Don't you wish you' hide from the world into someplace far
What had ever happened to the good old days
It was so long ago it feels like a haze
But yet I still know it existed one day
And I sure hope it comes back to me some way
By the time you get home you feel like you just shouldn't care
Sometimes you wonder if the world has a hope or a prayer
And all the more you care the more you worry
About how every thing is suppose to be
Now it is approaching night fall
And what was that day worth at all
You then cry to sleep in your bed
While the sin is stuck in your head
What had ever happened to the good old days
It was so long ago it feels like a haze
But yet I still know it existed one day
And I sure hope it comes back to me some way

Goodbye To Cruelty
It's time to finally say goodbye to cruelty
It's time to finally set us free
Cruelty has made so many leave this world too frequently
It's time to stop cruelty from making insanity
It's time to change before it's too late
We must work to stop the injustice and hate
To change the world's final fate
Or else we will have destroyed all that was created
