Anarchist Poem by John Cage

Anarchist Poem by John Cage "We don't need government

We need utilities.



Air, water, energy

Travel and communication means

Food and shelter.



We have no need for imaginary mountain ranges

Between separate nations.



We can make tunnels through the real ones.



Nor do we have any need for the continuing division of people

Into those who have what they need

And those who don't.



Both Fuller and Marshal McLuhan

Knew, furthermore

That work is now obsolete.

We have invented machines to do it for us.



Now that we have no need to do anything

What shall we do?



Looking at Fuller's geodesic world map

We see that the Earth is a single island, Oahu.

We must give all the people all they need to live

In any way they wish.



Our present laws protect the rich from the poor.



If there are to be laws, we need ones that

Begin with the acceptance of poverty as a way of life.



We must make the world safe for poverty Without dependence on government."

Sauls Synopsis

Sauls Synopsis of the West Memphis Three, as posted to the wm3.org website for their defense fund.



I think it is vogue right now to care about this kind of thing. Injustice. Fucking injustice. Someone said to me recently that the opposite of injustice is not justice but love. Maybe that was in the new X2 movie I don't remember right now.

FeaturePrice Sucks A$$ and steals money from its patrons. That is a fact. They ARE going out of business and this is noted by the website featureprice review that has a link to be a part of a class action lawsuit against these slugs.I am going to switch my hosting service to another company. I have looked into cihost, globat and infinology. I am looking for the deal I had with FeaturePrice, a gig of space for about 10 bucks a month. Hunh.

Going to the Dentist in the Morning

General Dentistry in Downtown San Francisco - Dr. Michael Parrett Associates This will be the third (and last) session for my RCT or Root Canal Torture.

I am very glad that I have the dentist that I do because he has supreme patience and is as gentle as one would hope.

hiSpeed loFi- seahorse liberation army :junkyard

Adam left today. He went back to Santa Fe for the summer. Albert, Erik and I hung out at his place last night, and helped him pack. Alls well that ends well. I am going on 22 hours of sleep in the last week. That is an average of 3 hours a night. 22 sounds like enough then you stretch it out over a week and you never again consider yourself someone who only needs a few hours and "Ill be fine."

Definitions

Poetry expressing painted

images of abstract thought

dangerous entities living in a cave

alone like some felt hat that sits

on a rung on a stair

or a brick oven ironing out somewhere

vague.



Whomever there is that says

not me and means it, that it is

But no, I am, and that

grass is some soft jerky

grapples with existential parabolas

grows orange tentacles

creates masturbation marathons

loves that orchestras of frogs

echo resilience

that fried membranes permeate

beacons or

exist in memory.



None last.



Formal qualities organize ideas.



Knowledge knows nothing.





TENETS



1. DRAW EVERYDAY>

2. WRITE WHENEVER POSSIBLE>





(seven hundred and eighty dollars worth of mindless artefacts are hidden in a basket of membranes and the shmir.)



1. I Have a box to do this morning.

2. I believe that there lies in the future a great turmoil.

3. Cryptography is the most misunderstood endeavor of the human soul.

4. Nowhere is there more true life than in the face of a master manipulator.

5. God is a bankrupt state of being.

6. Forget me not for myself.

7. and on the western most peak is the hero who shall spill all of our hopes.



9. Creativity is death.



The life of electronics:

beeping, blinking, winking, flashing, lights. heart-pulses of energy programming sentience.
