A wonderful actress has died. A wonderful being lives on.
In a eulogy it was reported that she was asked her best advice. “Be authentic” was her reply.

Did she mean “Be yourself” or “Have a credible character”?
My answer is “yes.”

PRINCE LULLABY




The Prince of Lullaby
Will lead you away
By a slow march down.
His violent presence
Binds your gaze and
Foreshortens the puny.

---Down, you go,
Sweet child, and soon,
Your house is lost in a fit of dice.
While you were occupied,
All is swept up in a wave of threat.
In that thing that was once your street,
Not to terry on that corner long.
The New Confidence has come and gone.

A double song plays for me.
An impossible scene unwraps
In sticky dotted rhythms of a dream
A banal contradiction in passing.
It happened on TV. Born in a studio
Boardroom, it escaped the box.
Driven by the force that employs me
It dreams some logic to, for and on me

The reason why they must die.
Will, the stunted boy shall hate
And go berzerk on cue of old.
Surely follows close behind
To draw the heart into a cozy grasp
Of stone imagination. Down!
There ---down you go… hush and quiet be.

THERE IS NAUGHT BUT GOD







TITLE: THERE IS NAUGHT BUT GOD

If there is one God, there is nothing but God. And, if there are many Gods, then they are of a Kind, and This is One. How do we know God? All we know and do not know and Knowing are God. How do we desire God? All desired and undesired and Desiring are God. How do we sense God, as if to be present face to face? All we sense, think, desire and know and do not sense, think, desire and know are God. Sensing, Thinking, Desiring, Knowing, Creating, Moving, Hiding, Enjoying are God. It creates universes by veiling Its nature, It is not static like an image or book. It is omnipresent and omnipotent, since It is alone-- the only Thing there is.
Therefore, to speak in God's name is empty and redundant. Theocracy holds hostage what is intangible, and articulates the people through veils. But God is all things, was not born and cannot die; so, there is nothing to fear. It Loves all, because there is no absolute Other. There is not now or was or ever will be any difference not already contained in the dynamic power of The One.
Yet one can pray in God's Name for illumination and be heard! One can sing love in a Name! One can act as a Lover! One can then speak as One.
So what about the books and writings everywhere, they all were written by You Know Who. Every insight, poignent truth, dry thesis, blatent demagogery, and vicious lie---YKW. So if you are having a good time, share it, so that you do not appear foolish. If you are having a horrible life, share that as well; this insures that 'they' are not too happy.
Monist Ethic: What you do to others, you do to yourself simultaneously.
This double edge is concealed behind the focus of ones intent and action, --a real surprise. The inherent reaction exists as a relic resonator (imbalance), which filtres possibility. So if you live by war, it is most likley you will die in one. The resonator is always available for modification. However, the wretched and luxurient trappings of life are juxtaposed in this instance, here on blue Earth, to produce a delicious drama below, temporarily reining in vast eternity. So, even the life of a saint befits an end and is rewarded therewith, as is anyone or anything else.
THERE IS NAUGHT BUT GOD.

EXPLOITATION HEALTHCARE

MY HEALTHCARE TALKING-POINTS



1 PROFITING ON MISERY:

Q/ Why is there a corporation between me and my choice of doctor and delivery of medicine?

A/ Market prices for healthcare are beyond the reach of most people.

2 MEDICAL CARE IS NOT THE PLACE FOR MARKETING We may be born equal, but market forces grade clients and products to its own profitability by calculating his/her net worth and risk profile.

Q/ Why are Market values made absolute measures against the individual's health?

A/ Market forces are already managed and can be managed to the benefit of individuals.

3 MERCENARY HEALTH PROVIDERS - PROTECTION & THE ERA OF GAMING:

Q/ Should health-needs of citizens do propitious (gainful) work for redundant delivery systems, while citizens are graded out like live stock and faced with a 'range' of poor to de Luxe 'insurance' plans; before which they and their doctors must pass muster before so-called experts?

A/ "NO" to mandatory insurance overage! Insurance companies have become burgeoning institutions (from product complexity, grading, heavy investment) that block the citizens right to equal health services precisely due to actuarial experts and the gaming that attends statistical analyses of profits and margins. Co-Op's will likely be co-opted by the insurance industry and turned into an expensive grade 'D' option.

4 CYNICAL DELIVERY STRUCTURE:

Q/ What has healthcare got to do with employment?

A/ It has nothing to do with employment. Employee based healthcare, exploits both employer and employee. The un-employed still need and will receive care based on the human needs recognized by medical science.

5 OPPORTUNITIES FOR FRAUD:

Q/ Why should there be more than one kind of coverage?

A/ The redundancy and complexity of insurance business models that exist for a profit oriented business increase opportunities for fraud. That is why single payer is the only way to go on this one.

6 CONSTITUTIONAL CORPORATE DOMINION:

Q/ Why are we in a perpetual ‘dialog’ about this healthcare, when the people have already spoken via the election process?

A/ Corporate dominance is maintained by suspending public attention by tacitly repudiating the election results, publishing bogus press releases and producing diversionary spectacles. In this way we are perpetually ‘in dialog’ with our representatives in government where we encounter a plausible space for a re-conversation where further limitations are divulged to the ‘public’?

7 OUTLAW FOR PROFIT HEALTH INSURANCE:

Q/ How can any one conceive of or accept mandatory health insurance for profit?

A/ The answer to this is in the mind of insurance CEO’s and investors who inhabit a class of business usually left to the high seas and highways. But now, after decades of dismantling USA the final measure is being extracted by this investor class. This class is not one of ethnicity or race but graft, confidence and extortion. I’m sorry so many in government are utterly in bed with them. Meanwhile the absurd theatre of CHANGE is beginning to stale. What may come after that chills the blood and will test the resolve of democracy against imposed division by a mob of scammers. We are all already in a pool of subscribers. We’re called USA citizens paying taxes, let this pool be the single payer without being choked by gleaning and skimming insurance companies. Let’s sacrifice regimes of redundant healthcare profiteers.

Classism in the Stinking Onion

Will the old trading post up the river, built on a fracture in the earth implode like Xanadu? Will USA's most ancient branch of the Democratic Party dissolve? It is said that when Lincoln freed the South, the North remainded intact. This is the unravelling of Frankenstein's monster's knitted suit.

Illinois' governor [Blagojevich] was a man playing amongst sharks; now they will devour him. He never picked up the cover of a gentle uncle or kept a careful reckoning of what was 'too much.' We see politicians carefully, but carefully, commenting on the brash governor or on the last one still in prison. Some already have jumped to distance themselves from him, even one from the last jellified administration. But Blagojevich is not alone. What's happening?

Illinois is going broke. In fact it has been in the hands of liquidators of various kinds for thirty years. Like a cancer patient is vulnerable to many separate but related ills, so Chicagoland was brought low. The harbinger of the illness was the rise of gaming in the eighties; and 'gaming' is strategy and tactic in one. The loss of industry under the attacts of hostile buy-outs, down-sizing, exiling and dismantling USA employer base in favor of investor and commodity manipulations significantly brings us into the hands of financial terrorists---criminals. I have watched as this bunch has stifled creativity and progress in industry whereof we would already be "Green." High-milage is the bane of importers and their brokers. Which brings us to the main point here. Racism obscures classism. Classism affects health, education, economy and ecology.

In fact, the election of a race-sensitive candidate has temporarily stripped the racist layer to reveal the classist mechanics of human commodity and the objectification required for conquest. Really it's vile; the reslut of nepotic patronage and business in-breeding. It directly endangers our country. Keep pulling at that thread.
