Just say KNOW

I gotta leave this here.  I NEED you Kidz to assimilate the necessity of Political Engagement, an Engagement that encompasses YOUR needs, wants and desires.  What YOU "Want out of life" is EXACTLY what YOUR Government should concede as NATURAL---even all the petty horse-shits like JBL Speakers powered by a Macintosh Pre-Amp and Amp.  Above All Else understand that LIFE IS BRUTALLY SHORT.

I'm TELLING you that you NEED a Code To Live By, Ethics, Morals and Cosmic Principles so that you can retain a POSITIVE Orientation toward YOUR Version of Utopia.  When All Else fails, at least you'll have Nothing.

Listen Kidz, you aint takin' from what you never gave.  It is impossible.   Know that Sacrifice is the Root of all Discipline.  Loathe self-indulgence unless you can justify IT as a reward for Diligence. 

I gotta go....


Rock steady........steady as She goes....

 

...guppies...

Did you Kidz "catch" that I made Cortez CORTEX ?  Too funny and totally unintentional although, for sure, it was completely IN-tentional on a subliminal basis.  Oh well.  I like it ~~~ Ocasio-Cortex..... .

Chicks are "coming out of the woodwork" and guppies are coming out from under rocks to be "Contenders".  Everybody considers themselves to be "Worthy".  Tw o words ::   I doubt it.  Chicks are singing the Same Song --it's from the Ancient Youngblood Album "Elephant Mountain" and that song is, "Come together".   Here it is that Old AINT New.  What are we coming together to do, beat on one another for "crumbs off the fat cats' table" ?   It sure SOUNDS as if even THEY can't be sure. 

Far and away --THE Most Unsettling Thing I heard on TV was that "Folks vote for whom they hate the least, NOT for whom they like the most."   Indeed, folks voted for trump BC they HATED Clinton.  You gotta wonder how it can get much worse... .

EVERYBODY wants to "unify" America, No One knows HOW. 

Warren is a Distinguished General, having battled for and achieving Victory of Consumer Protection ---but can she amass an ARMY of devoted Soldiers in the way that Obama marshaled HIS troops ???????  Sanders is the same, can Sanders trap and harness his Legion's Socialism ? 

We know what happened to Burny,  is Liz gonna be different ?

What we need is a Black Spartacus

I gotta ask, "Where is the Black Army's Spartacus" ?  Where is Hannibal, the Carthaginian Rome Killer ?  You gotta figure, as I do, that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortex is Joan d'Arc, a MUCH-YOUNGER version of Elizabeth Warren---certainly she IS a Factor with all the Green New Deal horseshit.   Warren is a self-avowed Capitalist, a SOLID Comrade of my Guy, Burn-y Sanders, but it is exceeding UNLIKE-LY that Either will advance BC of American Frown on all Things Super-Progressive.   Warren rages "School Marm" and Burny furies "Mad Socialist".  Don't misunderstand, Tin Lizzy  and Burn Up ARE MY KIND OF POLITICAL WARRIORS.  I'd fight and die by their sides in a Capa-Socialist MINUTE.  It ain't gonna happen, THEY ain't gonna happen.  Americans have yet to recover from The OLD New Deal.  Republicans still HATE the Universality of Social Security, how are they EVA gonna accept Universal Medical Coverage ? 

Truth is  :::      NO FUCKING WAY.

"Houston ?  We have a problem."


Person Of Interest

With "all that" as blah, blah, blah, I want to get to the topic of today's expedition, the American Presidential Campaign of 2019 and 2020.  We are afforded the Opportunity to examine the Candidates in such a way that can aid us in revealing our own "Identity", and by Inference & Deduction, that of the American Electoral Conscience.

If you haven't already, please go to "desilva_stephen" at Twitter.com in order to get today's backdrop.    There I made effort to cite Jung's "Process of Individuation" as a Tool to scrutinize the Political/Spiritual Development of Those That Seek The Highest Office. 

I believe we have reached a point of  National Imperative - - the one where we MUST find a Some One who is NOT simply "High Minded" but is in Fact WORTHY of the Presidency, BC look what transpired when a One WASN'T Scrutinized, but advanced due to the Constitution's Electoral College's PERVERSION,  the Very Same that should have DENIED an insane Madman from entering the Office.

Shouldn't we elect a Person Of Interest, One who, by his or her Demeanor, COMMAND Attention ???  Shouldn't That Person REFLECT the Conscience of the American Intellect and WORK ETHIC ????  Shouldn't That Person BE "Every Man, Woman and Child ???  Shouldn't That Person's Speech be OUR Speech, and OUR Voice ???  Shouldn't That Person's Aspirations be OURS ????

I'm thinkin'    HELL YEAH !!!!

...dying to live...

When the Buddha was on his Death Bed  His students were still pumping Him for Direction.  One Such panic-ed, "What are we to do without You ?"  the Buddha serene-d, "Each of you must find your own Salvation".  I gotta tell ya Kidz, that stopped me DEAD in my tracks. 

Eventually, SWORD was my "Salvation".  Here "Salvation" is NOT "Heavenly Relief Of Suffering", rather, Salvation is  EARTHLY  Relief, and at BEST it's STILL fucking BRUTAL. 

BUT --- and I HATE beginning a paragraph with "But" ---what Sword did was give me a Weapon to combat my own Ignorance.  Sword cleared my Mind and leveled my Head.  Sword "gave" me the fierce tenacity to be AGGRESSIVELY Insane, the GOOD Insane, the One where I am "In Opposition to the World".  Never underestimate Physical STRENGTH, --- there is NO Substitute for HORSE- POWER~~~ even more, NEVER Underestimate Spiritual Superiority, the GOOD Kind, the One of Compassion, Caring, Kindness, and Commiseration--- that of a Bodhisattva Warrior. 

"But wait, there's more" ...

Grandma Moses and Grampa Knowses

Grand Ma Moses was this elderly Vixen who managed to STUN the Art World with Masterpiece after Masterpiece ~~~  all after the Age of Don't Even Bother.  I want what she had ~~~ a Driving Creative Energy that subsumed the Universe.  Thing is, and you Kidz are PAIN-FULLY Aware, I am exceedingly LAZY so Urgency and I are NOT "Friends" DESPITE the Near Death Advance of Near Death.  Oh well.....

I began my autobiography the First Day of College, it's been downhill ever since.

There ain't nothin' "Special" about my life, it's boring humdrum same as everyone else's :: thing is, I march to the beat of a different hum-drum.  I'm proud of that, if any pride can be found in esoteric commonality. 

Urgency profounds its way into Main-Stream Steve.  I write about the Street and Gutter bc not only did I "Push Books" on the Street, DOOR TO DOOR, I "picked swill" On the Streets of North Attleborough, Mass. and then Marc and I "Pushed Groceries" on the Streets of Downtown Boston for Bob Charles Trans.  I also "Pushed Signs" in Providence, R.I. for Westminster Sand Blasting --- that's how I "found" my Kung Fu Sifu, Charles Babbitt, an X-Pro Boxer who had a Vision of Bruce Lee.

Life is strange and then you're eating a Coney Island Special with a Black Bruce Lee GIANT.

My Cousin Gerry

My Cousin Gerry posted-up  "Hey Coz, what are you doing ?"  His query sent me into a "tale spin".  Besides fending off Death from X-Radiation and mutating into The Thing That Couldn't Wipe Its Own Ass, I've been busy elevating my BP to OFF THE SCALE, mainly because I'm scared shit about dying BEFORE I "get my House in order" ---THAT'S what I've been doing, getting outside and taking advantage of a March-that-seems-like-April--- i.e., getting my "House" my BRAIN/MIND in from "Out Of Order". 

Last year it wasn't until the SECOND week of MAY that allowed for extended Outdoor Functioning.  It went from Winter to Summer ::   Demeter, Hades Mistress /Wife, Nowhere to be found here among the Living.  Now that I'm gonna die soon, I'd rather meet Death with my boots on, chainsaw in hand.  I say "soon" the Doc gave me about 10 years or so, if I'm lucky. it was Chance that infected me with prostate cancer to begin with --- I'm no fan of Luck.

Either way the Clock is ticking, my Time is running out.

...rites & worngs...

I have no intention of abandoning the Stephen who rites all the weird shit about the World and Political Realities.  I am-gonna temper that stuff with REAL stuff so you Kidz don't get bored silly.  I know I'm great at the Ordinary Crap, the stuff of ego defilement and self deprecation but NOW I'm NOT gonna askew the Stuff that defines and scribes my "circumference".  That means I'm not gonna-be afraid of taking PRIDE in "being on the Streets" as a lowly Garbage Man in North Attleborough, Massachusetts, of delivering groceries for Bob Charles Trans in-and-on the Streets of Boston.  Street after street, gutter after gutter, short cuts and alleys ~~~~~

Internet Access is fucking with me  --- time to leave this.... .


Rock steady........steady as She goes....

Stephenwolf

What I DON'T want to do is record my every Death thought and Life malfeasance.  I don't believe they have a place in Polite Society - - What I want to make CERTAIN is that I give you stuff that's "Tried and True", shit that has withstood the "Test of Time", and found to be "Combat Worthy".  Zen Masters are "Empty Mirrors", sort of, and in This, it would be AWESOME if you Kidz were to see yourself in my written images. 

On one of my scraps of paper I found this :::  When you know yourself you immediately recognize your Self in others ---at that instant---you know them.

Authors like my Hero and Mentor, Hermann  Hesse, reveal their Entireties to the World, in an effort of Self Expression, that is their Essence, but this profound Self Expression MANIFESTS as Road Map for the Journey of Life. 

Hesse "saved" me from my Life.  He validated and affirmed my Worst AND my Best.  His Road Map was valid early in my Life and It has Proven Reliability. 

Hesse "gave" me Jungian Psychology and the I Ching.  I am what I am because of HIS Direction.

Mary Jane sez "HY"...

I got "hy" the other day, thanks to Nurse Mary Jane Putsout, it was the first time since learning I have Cancer cells growing on my prostate and I have MAYBE 5 to Ten years to live.   I didn't know what to expect, whether or not I would be SUPER-bummed-out, or simply morbidly melancholic :::  it WAS weird at first but somehow I settled into a Hy that IZ the Surfacing of Creative Energies ~~~ I write when I'm Hy but not THIS stuff.  I don't want to ruin the Hy by working at this keyboard~~~ that ISN'T where the BEST Energies reside. Listening to Music is PHYSICAL experiential Samadhi that ACTUALIZES a kinetic FOCUS on Vibrations.  "This" causes Stimulation that OPENS your Mind to Universal "Activity", Cosmic Wave-lengths,,  that can be recorded by pen to paper.  I enter them in my Book of Cosmic Revelations...  I USETA just scratch them on my legal pads but now I have like 70,000 such pads and NOW I consider each scratch and scrawl a GEM~~~ THAT'S why I've turned to using real journals.  EZ access ... .

Greetings from Birth

I gotta leave this here. 

Tomorrow I learn if my prostate and I have to declare war on Cancer. 

We have a lot to do whether or not the prognosis is Positive or Negative.

Right how I gotta eat and get reddy for "Johnny Sokko and His Flying Robot" followed by Fareed Zakaria's "Global Public Square". 


Rock steady........steady as She goes....

...rub-ture...

What I am concerned with is the  "Perfect Storm" :::  Failure to be aware of  the PSYCHOLOGICAL  Ramifications of Political Mythology, the inability to understand the true nature of Democratic Socialism, (Socialism's Essence), and the resistance to and FEAR of  the Ascendency of Female AUTHORITY. 
  
The Empire of Democracy has withered with age, to its now barely   FEEBLE Grotesque.  My HERO, Arnold Toynbee, would insist such decay and degeneration is the result of a LACK of "Creative Energy", Energy that closely parallels "blood transfusions".  Here now the Youthful Energy of O.C, and her ARMY of Millenials, those that "grew up" with Obama's Political Maternalism, that of the Affordable Care Act, AKA "Obama-Cares".  In a perfect "Sense", these Kidz were "brought up" with Socialism, a Socialism circumference-ly described by Democracy.  It can be argued, and I'm GONNA argue it, O.C. is a NEEDED transfusion into the Democratic Body Politic of FRESH BLOOD.  It is SOCIALIST Blood....... .

"Aye, there's the rub."

The Greatness That WAS Babylon

Pelosi has some problems---one of which is SHE'S FREAKING OLD.  She has within her Psyche elements of a ravaged Paternalism which is manifested as "Athena" Complexities, one of THEM is a Devotion to What-Once-Was ,  what I'm gonna call "The Greatness That Was Babylon".  Her blind insistence that "Impeachment is NOT to be considered" DEFINES her as AGE-ED and OUT-OF-TOUCH with THE Revolutionary Tactical MANDATE, the one where you GOTTA kill the snake by SLASHING OFF ITS HEAD !  

Enter Alexandria Ocasio-Coetez , the "O.C" as I like to tag ---and here now a TRUE "Daughter of the Revolution".   Where Pelosi is a MOTHER, birthed herself by ANCIENT Revolutionary Democracy ---she has "given birth" to the O.C. who, at this stage of her life, is constellating Will-full RESISTANCE to Maternal Over-Bear, the one where O.C. QUESTIONS Matriarchal Power with an eye that SHE, can wield the Revolutionary Sword of Joan d'Arc with YOUTHFUL Vehemence, RELEVANCE and POWER.  I stand, Sword in hand, by O.C.'s side.
