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."
- John Cage

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.

(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.

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.
