Saker Webmaster
In France again, at an Eatery?
Oui,’tis not a coffee beanery,
Non, but salads, sandwiches, beer.
Menu, s’il vous plait. Oh, look here!
Le Canard a la Donald, 40 francs,
On the Seine’s well-lighted banks
Or La Soupe Clinton avec Weiner,
Spectra Dominatrix! She is meaner!
What a tempting, tasty two selection
Choice to mock the ‘Murican election!
You must choose boldy, do not flinch,
Be hearty and sarcastic, ah, the French!
Yes Bro 93, I do appreciate your poems, and I will, as far we can do this right here in this Cafe. I don’t care what somebody has in mind. This Cafe has been created by Herb and The Saker with the scope of free discussions, promoting the friendship and love, yes…LOVE. We could talk here about God, about religions, about politics. It is sad when someone comes here to create havoc, putting pressure on different others opinions. This fact is very unfortunate, even more, when there are followed by insinuations or direct accusations. I would like to defend my friends here as much as I can, because as I told you earlier, not once, I love the atmosphere which was here ( and hopefully will continue to be) Is the poetry a danger for someone’s mind and soul ? I’m sorry that I ever mentioned my mother’s illness. Maybe I’ve changed my opinion in some cases but my trust in Jesus Christ has been and will remain unchanged. The Deadly Poets Society cannot be destroyed, it will live beyond, they create in pleasure and happy to do that, their heart is in their poems, their soul is full of joy and sadness, in this world of madness. Or do you think that our sufferings have gone ? Many thanks to elsi, for illuminating on the value of peace and friendship and harmony, through her escapades.I can hope, and ask her, maybe she will take time to try to wrote a poem or more, while discovering the joy of that. From my side, dear elsi, this duel prose exchange has come to her end. Have to move forward, the world we are facing is not stopping to admire us and we have to recover that little peace in this little island of this Cafe. Thanks !
“…LOVE”
You wish me to do that for an individual who views the treatment of hundreds of millions of Chinese slaves (for example) as an opportunity?
Why?
e.g. /moveable-feast-cafe-2016-09-05/comment-page-1/#comment-273350
Quote:
“Why don’t you ask the Chinese working up from dire conditions if the conditions aren’t less dire in the country side they left, and go over there and show them the way back to paradise???”
Would you wish me now love…Margaret Thatcher (amongst many other crimes implemented being right to buy in 1979 which continues to decimate social housing to this day)…Ronald Reagan…(trickle down Reaganomics for example)…Mikhail Gorbachev…(the list just continues to worsen)…GW…Tony Blair…etc etc?
How do you expect opinion to change without pressure.
For the moment, if you hadn’t noticed, the upward trajectory of this graph (3rd item from last) has also been successfully ignored for a long time too:
http://www.gks.ru/bgd/regl/b14_12/IssWWW.exe/stg/d01/07-01.htm
Agree, there is no love story in politics and pressure is the way to change something. The link you provided is very useful, thanks. Sad, that very few people bother to take a look. At the moment, the world is waiting in suspanse at the final results in US. Me too. Thanks for your reply.
You are welcome ioan.

Oh, wait! After almost 48 hours fighting, without rest, except 8 hours of placid sleep, in different fronts with several Western intelligence agencies residing here since some time ago, including CIA, Legoland and so on, who has shown themselves more or less agressive depending on the role on shift, I communicate one afternoon of asueto, yes, guys, you can return to the satirical genre of poetry and take coffee all the way while the world shudders, which was what we were doing every day until I came, since I decided to take the afternoon off, I have to go return an citrus squeezer that has come defective, have tea with my mom and then go to yoga class where I meet with a handful of good guys anf gals….
See you one day of these….
Gracias por el permiso, Comandante Elsi!
Viva La Lucha Libre!
Yo tambien me canse mucho sobre el fin de semana.
Pero ahora me preparo de contestarte con un plan, un programa!
Me alegro mucho que la ala izquierda del Ejercito de Amor
Esta animado con tanto espiritu de revolucionario vigor!
Pero si hay mas trabajo serio de hacer mas que acusaciones,
Mal informadas sobre cualquier cosa o persona que no conoces!
En fin debemos pensar, y mas bien llevar ideas, mas que boina de Che,
Nosostros no somos molinos de viento, y tu no eres Don Quijote.
Translation:
Thank you for the permission, Commandant Elsi!
Long Live The Free-for-all!! (or Fight for Freedom)
I’m also exhausted from the long, hard weekend!
But now I prepare to answer, with program, to send.
I’m very happy that the left flank of the Army of Love
Is so animated with spirit, revolutionary, from above!
But there is work to do, besides baseless accusations,
Ill-informed of persons you don’t know, or their occupations,
At last we must wear appropriate ideas, not just the beret of Che….
Because we’re not really windmills, and you’re not Don Quixote!
Well, I am back, armistice finished, and have to say, for your information, that I am not carrying anybody´s beret (eventhough Che´s beret would be very honorable to wear ) but mine, and I will say more, here in the Basque Country, everyone has its own beret, no need for us to wear anybody else´s, and we wear them with all the consequences.
http://www.boinaselosegui.com/
“…we must wear appropriate ideas”
Agree, you must change your ideas, mine are totally appropiate.
“… we’re not really windmills, and you’re not Don Quixote!”
Of course, I am totally aware who you are.
Always enjoy seeing you here dear Elsi. Yo tambien, don’t see frivolity as appropriate in these times.
Dear plainsman:
There is nothing frivolous in irony, one of the main ingredients of the conscious mind contemplating it’s own inconsistencies and errors.
We all make those errors. The issue is, what is the rate of correction of error, the adjustments, the course corrections?
Nor is there anything even .000001% frivolous in what Diane and Michael Steger have to say in the short video minutes I linked and broke down. The point was and is to get there, to get serious, to get beyond the divisions, accusations, hurt feelings, snap judgments, all the endemic ingredients of further error.
Can we get that far, or can we only react emotionally? The enemy wants that imbalance. They are masters of manipulating it. elsi does not get to the battle plan Diane and Michael lay out yet, although I have hopes that she, and many like her will, and not too long into the future. Otherwise Trump (no, wrong guess again,elsi, the rhyming word dump was never used by me in a way to urge his dumping…….I urge his helping and improving, by the process that got him to endorse the restoration of Glass-Steagall last week. You are dead in the water without that, which is where you are with Hitlery btw…….) shows signs of making less and less errors, so I will vote for him today. I, as a registered Democrat.
Note I support the broadest possible united front, which includes elsi, and she bitterly tends to want to cast me and other non-communists out. That’s an unfortunate error. Correction of error or sticking to it until the bitter end is the free will choice of every human being, if they do not discard that choice. Thank you!
About bitterness, it´s curious how you, despite having a whole team working with/for you, need to adress the one person who is showing some support for me in this cafe/blog right now who does not belong to your team.
Since you all are talking about tolerance, unity, love, care and so on all the time, why on Earth are we oblied to like poetry, or more exactly, your kind of poetry? I have already stated that I like poetry, for sure more than any of you, but absolutely not the way you use it to scorn, ridiculize, insult others who does not agree with your movement here.
On the other hand, why I do not find strange at all that you are going to vote for Trump, despite having mantained an ambiguous position till now?
You know, I knew it all the way, since the blog has not been any other thing, since months ago, while I have been out, that Trump all the way.
And no, I am not with Hitlery in any way, as I have stated in all my posts here about the issue.
The problem here in this blog is the same problem was identified by a Latin journalist in the US the other day: he showed a map of your country in colors, depending on ideology, and the country was almost in whole painted in red. What he did not tell, because he was obviously biased and blind about Hillary, is that this “red” US people is quite far-right inclined and has already took over what could remain of left in the Democratic party, at least in its origins, and in any other aspect of the country, long time ago, precisely the part was so intensely fought by your organization. So the result of what is today the DP has a lot to thank to you and your acolytes. The journalist, of mexican origins, despite his bias and blindness about Hillary, seemed a good person, by his eyes and expression ( this is, of course, only a personal judgement in what almost never I am wrong ), and he stated that, despite having raised his children there, he really feared for what the country where his children are making their living is turning in.
As I have stated here: /how-the-election-battle-shapes-up/comment-page-1/#comment-291202
Good luck, I will add, to the people of good will there in the US.
You will find me always in front, you will need to kill me, a thing you will not find difficult to do at all, others preceded me, vefore I could collaborate with you in any issue, because I do not like neither your manners, nor your methods, nor anything related to the “fascio”, simply, it´s against my own nature.
P.S: BTW, for your information , in case anything could happen to me, there is friend of mine, also commenter in this blog, who is aware of what is happening here, and I asked him the other day to pull tht rug in case anytime he lost contact with me by both, email and phone.
I’ll do this tomorrow, hd to reboot this dell junk,tired now.
Dear Elsi, When I was in Russia last year I bought myself a ‘pilotka’ (quintessential Russian military, brimless, khaki cap) and stuck a beautiful red and gold ‘znachok’ in the form of a two-headed eagle on the front of it. To me this symbolizes the best of the Russian spirit.
Do you think it would be gauche of me to wear this to a Hate Putin, or a Dump Trump party? And will it go with a Kalashnikov, just in case?
– a ‘Fashion challenged patriot’.
I do not know what is a Dump Trump party, but these words “Dump Trump” have been used by Bro93 several times already in his, well, “poems”…..and so, I do not know if I must conclude that you are also part of the same troupe here….followers of the old crumudgeon and so on…
A pity, you have fallen me well.
You will look very appropiate in any party in the US with your “pilotka” with the two-headed eagle not needing any Kalashnikov, since you are all friends there.
I have my own “pilotka” plenty of Soviet “znachok” bought in St. Peter and a real ensign of the CPSU for my parka, how do you see it?
I fear my “pilotka” would have looked much more appropiate than yours today in Moscow:
https://mundo.sputniknews.com/foto/201611071064658821-desfile-1941-75-aniversario-marcha-militar/
here is a partial poem for Bro 93:
Poetry as frivolity? Poetry is a form of sanity
as we face the likes of Hannity
we know the infowars is not for jollity.
a light heart needs not a heavy hand
those who poetry scorn, dont understand
complexities of the struggle in the USA
the pressured challenges for those who stay.
Are we to compare hats or friends now dead
as proof of merit, scorning ideas instead?
If so ,they have won those want to divide
our unity in struggle they won’t abide
You have talent! So if I err
Please jab me, lance me
With poetic sword or spear
Of ruthless poetic irony!
I appreciate that elsi supports Putin and Russia, and China too, unlike Unimouse that claims to be of communist or left persuasion but has no patience for either the Russian or the Chinese leader to work on the income inequality, repeatedly urging people to look at the same stupid link he has posted for the last 8 months, and give up the fight for a multi-polar world in preference for Unipolarity, ie abject submission to the Empire, in a fit of bitter loserdom.
But what is the program, elsi, the program? Being in right brain imbalance over right and left absurdities, in politics???? This is the essense of oligarchic mind control. Some people love their chains, though, and will defend them to the death.
If the program is to call Putin and Xi and the departed hero Motorola “comrade” over and over again to rally “the left” that is nice if they feel down and in need of an emotional boost.
Putin is stronger than that. He would welcome your support, but as for the bitter ideological bias, I can just see his subtle little smile and thought of “Been there, done, that. Time to move forward out of dialectical and ideological traps.Nice passionate lady, though……”
Me right wing? Absurd! Wash your mouth out! I reject the stupid left/right matrix of mind control. You have passion but it is not yet balanced by reason. Seek help from someone else in that regard, since you share Unimouse’ blind detestation of me. I have cared enough about your passion that I have tried to intervene to keep you from embarrassing yourself, but you don’t get it yet. A guy that posted a video of a narcissistic young Russian woman got it back then. As does the West Side Story guy. But for you keeping the “eyes on the prize” is not debating program, or defending a multipolar world, it is defending you! And to hell with program, which gets lost in the threats to leave, accusations, and other silliness.
All sizzle, no steak. Where’s the beef? Start with Glass Steagall if you want to bankrupt the AZ Empire. That’s # 1 prerequisite, to get to Laws 2, 3 and 4. But why discuss them with you, if you won’t discuss the prerequisite, Step # 1, out of personal pique??? You can lead a mare to water, but you can’t make her drink.
When you went ballistic months ago by responding to the analysis that waves of emotionalism (right brain imbalance) characterize many Asiatic warrior societies, and these deep problems came with the Moors into Spain (along with beautiful architecture and other benefits) and stayed there for 700+ years, and went nearly everywhere Spain went, and they are a problem to reckon with, what was your response? Waves of emotionalism! The left flank of the Love Army could settle down and tend to the business of winning strategy, better IMHO.But your judgment is better than Glazyev’s. Uh huh!
Cultures change, evolve, struggle. We see this in Syria. We see it in parts of South America. But the oppressor class there, la oligarquia and its victims share what makes them easy prey to the AZ Empire: right brain imbalance. I care about that problem, as do serious people there.Truth, not feel good popularity contests that get just plain embarrassing. Consciousness of truth is where traction forward is, where the rubber meets the road, if you really care about these nations and their freedom, and not just about how you look.
Back to program, no matter what happens in today’s voting. And thanks for caring so much about this screwed up place. Your ill will for anything not as “red” as you is palpable.Love? Yes there is some in my replies to you. If you clear some of the ideological and emotional red out of yours eyes you may be able to spot some of that love. Adios!
This conversation is being shut down. It is just personal attacks. Any further comments will go to trash. Mod.
And to finish with your crazy, and also racist, theory about Spanish character being so nasty by the bad influence from “the Moors”, you are skating there, because, despite you thinking of yoursef that you know everything and you are always right, l inform you that my blood is most probably totally celt, if only by the procedence of my parents, eventhough I have never researched this issues since give me a damn, this is a thing that worry more people like you. So not so much for the Moorish influence that I challenge your ideas and I do not accept the methods of your organization. Only yes, I love Arab peoples and so, I have traveled over almost all the Middle East where I have always felt very comfortable.
And, btw, apart from the Glass-Steagall you are naming since only a week ago or so, I have never seen any program coming from you, only vaguenesses about “brain imbalance” and directing people to “esoteric paths”, out of reality, as if you all, in your organization, were all balanced people. Yes, we have been able to test. Anyway, no wonder, since from what I have understood, you were said that you all are “golden souls” in the movement, with difference to the others out of it, and so, how difficult is to leave, isn´t it?, despite all the money lost….
Elsi I have only been here for the last 2 hours. I have not deleted any of yours. From the notes left by the previous mods, who tend to say if they delete or sent to Saker, nothing of yours has been, so I cannot help you. Why do you not re-post now, while I am here, and let us see what happens. mod on duty.
I wonder why is that only my personal attacks have not been published and yes all the insults towards me by this mundanomaniac and Bro93.
If I am honest, I even felt kinda relief at these comments not being published or being deleted, since I was starting feeling thrown to the level of these individuals in their characteristic offensive style.
Clearly, thay are out of themselves, since I exposed all what was going on here. The boss, found no other option than admitting to which organization he belongs, and then, all the other poets and even no poets, discovered themselves as well. Before, they only were dedicated to poetry, meditation, nature observation, astrology, and so on. The world could fall that they did not change their tone, Now, yes, all this wonderful and lofty people are all the way insulting me. Some even have not dared to apear with their previous names.
“repeatedly urging people to look at the same stupid link he has posted for the last 8 months”
The link is directly from the Russian Federation Federal State Statistics Service website – it simply reports statistics being the MAIN SOCIO-ECONOMIC INDICATORS OF LIVING STANDARDS OF POPULATION over the period 1992 through 2013 – did you look at them? why do you think the figures are stupid?
Because they are old and Russia has recovered under Putin.
But you’d vote against what the great majority of Russians would vote for, since you know better than they, in your silly mind.
What’s stupid is to keep using it as though all other issues do not exist, only the one that helps you (removed MOD).
Clear enough??
Dear elsi
I feel that you have read more into my words than was intended. Sorry.
We have different perspectives of events that my husband’s family lived through – you have another view… that is fine.
Take care.
In that case, apologies also, dear Babushka, but did not understand what you were meaning with that of the timing.

From Bill Clinton travelling twenty-three times and Hillary Clinton travelling six times on convicted pedophile Epstein’s Jet the Pedophile Express to his private child rape island and trafficking kids on convicted pedophile Epstein’s Lolita Express and possibly being involved in sexual behavior, the rabbit hole goes deeper America…
As now the Clinton camp is having hot tub parties with children. You can’t even use the word evil to define the Clinton’s or they’re associate f***s, because their sexual desires involve children as young as seven! No wonder when NYPD discovered what was on Huma’s computer, that NYPD basically stated that it turned their stomachs…
For as this investigation being reopened by the FBI America is witnessing just how sick these f^^^^ers are! If your a parent like myself you have to feel like you want to rip your stomach out of your body, because the days leading up to the election is showing Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, and their team of associates are more pedophile then pedophiles now serving time in Federal or State Prisons around America.
I can’t even understand how adults who are still supporters of Hillary Clinton who are parents, because it’s hard to understand why adults who have kids still support Hillary Clinton…With all this proof of Hillary and associates being the highest form of pedophile there is on planet Earth. As a father I don’t even want to know what was going on in the hot tub with Podesta!

Right now you can hear 52 hours of very interesting guests and election coverage by the so-called alt-right which I call the “high righteous” @ infowars.com/show. You do not have to agree completely with these folks to understand that they are the voice of the American people due to the total cop out of the traditional left and the inability of the CIA controlled labor unions to connect politically with anyone.

Had my siesta and I’m ready to roll!
A video, that is. For our army’s divisions, it’s offered, never forced. These short few minutes on what to do after Tuesday. The People’s Love Army must take the field ’cause one candidate’s a jerky puppet, and the other is pretty raw! Neither are in the league with Washington or FDR. Our help is needed, once we’ve cleared our heads, and gotten both hemispheres in sync.
So for the left hemisphere (that would include valiant elsi and her lance…..) which deplores the old curmudgeon, and will never know him in his prime, here are two youngins, Diane and Michael:
I never met Diane, but I have met Michael in discussion for an hour or so, on the Island of Alameda, east side of the San Francisco Bay. And he has something very interesting about poetry and politics to say:
Diane, first https://youtu.be/9XPBwWs84Go?t=455
A new mood, in which 70-80 % of your neighbors will agree, if they comprehend “the Four Laws” to save the nation…………..
Then Michael reinforcing this idea and at 9:25………………… raising the example of Alexander Hamilton, the subject I believe is relevant not only here at home, but also in Russia through economists such as Glazyev………….
And, reflecting the influence of the Putin example……………… at 10:04 of the video for any American leader that wants to save the nation, rather than deliver it to Satan.
Comparing and contrasting that recent history in Russia to Lincoln here in America at 10:50
And ending with the old soldier’s analysis of the primary “divide and conquer” ruse of the enemy of humanity, the dividing of the individual human mind against itself 11:38 with an explicit reference to the power of poetry (those would be the right flank divisions of the Love Army which our Departed But Still With Us Dennis must surely be among…..)
And Michael concludes his short few minutes with his observation of the Universal characteristic of the Human Mind.
And I conclude this by only revealing the First of the Four Laws to Save the Nation: The full restoration of FDR’s Glass-Steagall Law. Which Hillary rejects, but Donald endorsed less than a week ago.
An absolute necessity to cut off the root of all evil (buying of people’s souls) emanating out of Wall Street and the City of London. Necessary but not sufficient. The other 3 laws comprise the “sufficient” ingredients.
If we can get left and right hemispheres, flanks of the army, etc coordinated and balanced, the whole world can be saved. But you don’t do that by rolling out of bed on Wednesday and uncrossing your fingers. Plenty of joyful work and purpose awaits the balanced and the brave!
I want to apologize to all those who may have read this already.
I posted it erroneously at the end of a Cafe that was closing about a week ago.
I think it is worth sharing and would like more people to see it.
It is a repost. – Marcel Woland

That man may question? You seem to understand me,
By each at once her chappy finger laying
Upon her skinny lips: you should be women,
And yet your beards forbid me to interpret
That you are so”. – Banquo
I have received an invitation to a ‘Dump Trump Dinner’. Actually, my wife did, and she passed the information on to me. I assume I am invited too, though I feel I may be of the wrong gender.
I am not surprised that Hillary ‘Lady Macbeth’ Clinton, as one of the weird sisters of US feminism (is there any other kind?), and her acolytes would wish to communally stir the pot of The Donald’s alleged sexual peccadillos. There are so many other ingredients in that cauldron already. But if you are not afraid of the possibility of the following trio – Hilary Clinton, Teresa May, and Julija Tymoshenko – seizing all power, you are made of sterner stuff than I.
I checked the correct plural of ‘peccadillo’ and fortuitously happened on this example:
“We Brits, [wannabe Americans – author] mocked in France for our lack of interest in sex and our censorious approach to peccadillos which most other nationalities would applaud in a man, have been surprised by French press reaction.”
The above reminds me, of course, of the strange mix of prurience and prudishness which makes up the North American Anglo male and female psyches. It is after all the land of rampant pornography and of well-to-do elitist feminism and of anti-abortion violence. The ‘good’ Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau (not the present one) once said: “The state has no business in the bedrooms of the nation.” He might have said ‘locker rooms’ just as well.
Trump, when first undone by Open Mike (a decade ago!), was, unconsciously of course, in the line of Anatole Kuragin from War and Peace, to whom Pierre says, after almost killing him in rage:
“After all, you must understand that besides your pleasure there is such a thing as other people’s happiness and peace, and that you are ruining a whole life for the sake of amusing yourself! Amuse yourself with women like my wife – with them you are within your rights, for they know what you want of them. They are armed against you by the same experience of debauchery; but to promise a maid to marry her… to deceive, to kidnap…. Don’t you understand that it is as mean as beating an old man or a child?…”
Who but Bill Clinton could derive from the US remake of that scene – fellatio in the oval office – the following explanation of motive and cause: “Because I could”?
From what I have seen so far, Trump’s, alleged, ‘victims’ are the former – ‘debauched’ already. The latter appear to be more in Lord Macbeth’s (Bill’s) line. And Hillary, if not his procurer, is certainly his enabler.
Trump is probably a cad. Not an uncommon fault in US presidents, nor in anyone with too much power it seems, from Bill Clinton to Dominic Strauss Cohen to Jean Claude Juncker, who are also predators. In fact, it was Trump’s caddishness and vulgarity which propelled him to US celebrity status in the first place and then on to the Presidential elections. That is as much the fault of all Americans as it is Trump’s.
The tropical fever that is US election time (now year round), is not conducive to such rational Tolstoyan thought. Pity. Were it not so, neither Hilary nor Trump would still be contenders. Sad to say, the US probably is about to get the leader it deserves. But what have the rest of us done to deserve it (not entirely a rhetorical question)?
Back to my tale. I was enjoying the eerie aptness of The Scottish Play so much that I looked up the incantatory opening scene, half expecting Halloween gibberish, but it is not so. If you are at all steeped in poetry, look it over, sound it out, let it weave its verbal spell, and tell me if the thing does not start to take chilling form and prophetic shape, becoming a poetic description of the Clinton campaign as revealed in the Wikileaks record. Shakespeare’s sketch of a state on the edge of a precipice.
from Macbeth ACT IV SCENE I. A cavern. In the middle, a boiling cauldron.
A dark Cave. In the middle, a Caldron boiling. Thunder.
Enter the three Witches.
1 WITCH. Thrice the brinded cat hath mew’d.
2 WITCH. Thrice and once, the hedge-pig whin’d.
3 WITCH. Harpier cries:—’tis time! ’tis time!
1 WITCH. Round about the caldron go;
In the poison’d entrails throw.—
Toad, that under cold stone,
Days and nights has thirty-one;
Swelter’d venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i’ the charmed pot!
ALL. Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
2 WITCH. Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder’s fork, and blind-worm’s sting,
Lizard’s leg, and owlet’s wing,—
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
ALL. Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
3 WITCH. Scale of dragon; tooth of wolf;
Witches’ mummy; maw and gulf
Of the ravin’d salt-sea shark;
Root of hemlock digg’d i the dark;
Liver of blaspheming Jew;
Gall of goat, and slips of yew
Sliver’d in the moon’s eclipse;
Nose of Turk, and Tartar’s lips;
Finger of birth-strangled babe
Ditch-deliver’d by a drab,—
Make the gruel thick and slab:
Add thereto a tiger’s chaudron,
For the ingrediants of our caldron.
ALL. Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
2 WITCH. Cool it with a baboon’s blood,
Then the charm is firm and good. “
“I’ll do, I’ll do and I’ll do.” – First Witch, Macbeth (1.3.12)
That Shakespeare verse made me think of Hillary’s mentor in the USSD, Albright, and her reply to a reporter’s question:
“The five hundred thousand Iraqi children’s deaths… were they worth it?”
Albright: “Yes, they were worth it.”https://youtu.be/omnskeu-puE
Then I recalled how Tymoshenko’s voice rasped when she said: “They [Russians] must be killed with nuclear weapons.” https://youtu.be/whBrGMGBRIo .
And finally, Lady MacBeth Clinton’s famous line, upon seeing the murder of Osama Bin Laden: “We came. We saw. He died (cackle, cackle, cackle).” https://youtu.be/Fgcd1ghag5Y
Macbeth: How now, you secret, black, and midnight hags! What is’t you do?
All: A deed without a name.
We are now in Sinclair Lewis’ bogus-spells territory. The character of the ‘charismatic’ (as a noun) Sharon Falconer in Lewis’ novel Elmer Gantry was loosely based on events in the career of the Canadian-born American radio evangelist Aimee Semple McPherson. When Hillary came on, in the third debate, she was lit up in her pure white pantsuit as if it had been sprinkled with radioactive pixie dust. Poor Donald was in a suit in a Mormon/Puritan shade of black. Glowing, tumescent Hillary/Aimee against the horny, lowlife Elmer Gantry/Trump. Here is where female sexuality (pardon the use of the word to describe Miss indeterminate-letter-gender Piggy in-a-pantsuit), can wreak havoc among other gender indeterminate males and females. But then that was Lewis’s point with his character Sharon Falconer. They use everything at their disposal to win souls to God, or, in this case, to the Clinton Dynasty and Foundation. For an alleged feminist like Hilary, it was shameful betrayal… in a chastity belt.
A ‘deed without a name’ is also subliminal advertising, and the Asch experiment . http://www.simplypsychology.org/asch-conformity.html
In short, it is anything that distracts from the seriousness of the moment and hooks you with its spell. The only thing Hillary would not dare give herself was a halo. But, in a sense, she had become the halo. And there was nothing else there.
Should you find time and opportunity at some ‘Anti Trump Triumph’ (I assume that all progressive Democrats will be invited to one, as certainly as they will be to a Super Bowl Party)… please read and discuss… no, not the Weird Sisters scene but a quote from Hilary: “America is great, because America is good.” – Hilary Rodham Clinton.
To my ear, it has the negative, incantatory power of a surd, or a jingle by Bernays, and all the attraction… of a vacuum.
As if replying from beyond the grave, my favorite philosopher and mystic, Simone Weill once wrote:
” To set up as a standard of public morality a concept which can neither
be defined nor conceived is to open the door to every kind of tyranny. ”
The Macbeths of Shakespeare’s play were a tag-team. They wanted Scottish hegemony. When ‘Lord’ flagged, ‘Lady’ took over. But they were stopped. As much by human as by supernatural intervention. The Macbeth’s of our day – the Clinton Dynasty – want global hegemony as prophesied to them by the witches of our day, whom Bush the Second called: “The crazies in the basement.” They are the Zionist neo-con cabal whose names are legion.
Macbeth himself became the tragic picture of remorse. Both of them went mad and they took a large portion of their state with them in the waves of corruption and violence that they unleashed in order to achieve their ends. Macbeth’s last words may well become ours:
Macbeth: But wherefore could not I pronounce ‘Amen’?
I had most need of blessing, and ‘Amen’
Stuck in my throat.

Power is the Problem
Wherever I look, this statement is true. Whether it is my line manager taking out their frustrations on me, the Priest abusing their authority, the power-tripping police officer, the corrupt government official using their post for personal gain, the Oiligarch changing the whole world to suit their business model; Power is the original sin. For some, their weak characters cannot resist the lure to take advantage, for others they are human in form only and steal power to hide their condition and spread evil over the world. There is a kernel of beauty in the heart of the American Republic, surrounded now by a massive tumour caused by the exercise of global hegemony. In fairness, any other political system would have long ago slipped into dictatorship. Not too late.
Those of us who have wrestled this monster have tried from many angles. For 150 years the main push has been to take that power for ourselves, to do good with it instead. But power doesn’t work that way; the root of the word revolution is something that goes around and around, always returning to the same point. Power corrupts the well-intentioned, and attracts the corruptible. Every Western nation has a 100 year old Labour party which started with the highest of ideals, only now to find themselves old and broken sitting in the corner of Orwell’s Chestnut Tree Café crying into their gin. Our liberation does not lie in the Ballot Box, or looking down the barrel of a gun.
The solution seems to be the dissolution of power, the breaking of all concentrations and the resulting global redistribution. The more concentrated the power, the stronger it’s evil gravity (The Ring of Power). The only way power can be safely wielded is broken into seven billion little pieces so we can all responsibly manage our individual share. I believe Professor Tolkien accurately saw this, and left the Western World a mythology to get us through these dark days.
Gandalf: “And now, Frodo, the decision lies with you. What will you do with the One Ring?”
Frodo: “I’ll give it to you, Gandalf! You’re wise and powerful. Well, will you not…”
Gandalf: ” No! Do not tempt me! I would wish to turn it to good, and it cannot be used so. Meaning to be kind, I would become as terrible as the Dark Lord himself. Do not tempt me! I shall have such need of strength so soon.” (Ralph Bakshi’s 1978 movie)
Destroy (The Ring of) Power.
@ Earthrise
There are many things in common in our thinking and world view, among others that will remain unsaid. Indeed Power is the source of all evil and this topic ties in very well with what was said in the last Café on the nature of evil, about which you are familiar (sorry about the ambiguity!).
Some would say that Money is the source of evil. My understanding is that the meaning of “money” here actually means Power. Money itself has no value (banks make money from thin air like an alchemist’s or magician’s trick). In the figurative sense of wealth Money is subordinate to Power (e.g. when the revolution rolls in money loses to power) but Money can buy Power either by corruption, influence or acquisition (e.g. hiring mercenary armies and servants) which means that Power is treated as a commodity desired by Money for having a higher value than itself – otherwise, why bother acquiring it.
The highest representation of Power is the state, who has the monopoly of coercive violence against the citizenry through its agencies (justice system. police and military forces, secret services), the political organs (executive government, parliament and the constitution), and the ideological instruments (education, laws, mass media and even religion, e.g. the queen of England is also the head of the Church of England). Some people will not agree that the state controls the mass media but a simple survey of ownership of information outlets reveals that a close relationship with the state exists. Besides, while some marginal dissent may be permitted, the state has the power, legal or not, of control.
So, money buys power, but the converse also obtains: power buys (acquires) money, they need each other, and there resides the root of all evil: the close association – you might say a necessary co-relation or symbiotic relationship – between power and money. In essence, they go together because one cannot exist without the other.
C. Wright Mills published “The Power Elite” in 1956 and was promptly assailed as a conspiracy theorist by the American establishment whose hold on power behind the cover of “democracy” he unmasked. A few years later Eisenhower alerted the American people to the threat of the “military Industrial complex” to democracy.
Mills was inspired by a study, (“Behemoth”, published by Franz Neumann in 1942 about Nazism) on democratic capitalist societies conversion into fascism by the appropriation of state power by the industrial and financial barons, political families and their military acolytes.
The descent into fascism in America did not start with the Bushes; at the end of WWII the US was already on the way.
“Anyone dealing with policy (…) is psychological spoken in intimate intercourse with the devil”
Wolfgang Pauli in “The Pauli-Jung Letters”, p.88.
As you say, There is a kernel of beauty in the heart of the American Republic. The US constitution, however imperfect, is an important landmark in the social development of human institutions. The problem is that when you build an institution on the basis of high principle, the institution itself becomes the goal for the apparatchik-class, not the principle. And pharisaic legalism can drain the blood of principle from the veins of the institution. The US supremecourt, for example, has drained the spirit of democracy from american elections, by allowing money unlimited rein…
Resetting the supreme court may be the one important reason for voting for hillaryclinton, Deciding the supreme court judge may be a 30 year choice, while you could get hillary out after 4 years. Of course, she may have started a nuclear holocaust by then,
Its interesting that both presidential candidates have jewish sons-in-law ( jaredkushner and marcmezvinsky ) and that their chief aides also have jewish connections ( jaredkushner and humaabedin, whose husband is antonyweiner) … didnt netanyahu assure israelis that it was easy to ‘move’ american policy ?

MARIA
I feel pretty,
Oh, so pretty,
I feel pretty and witty and bright!
And I pity
Any girl who isn’t me tonight.
I feel charming,
Oh, so charming
It’s alarming how charming I feel!
And so pretty
That I hardly can believe I’m real.
See the pretty girl in that mirror there:
Who can that attractive girl be?
Such a pretty face,
Such a pretty dress,
Such a pretty smile,
Such a pretty me!
I feel stunning
And entrancing,
Feel like running and dancing for joy,
For I’m loved
By a pretty wonderful boy!
GIRLS
Have you met my good friend Maria,
The craziest girl on the block?
You’ll know her the minute you see her,
She’s the one who is in an advanced state of shock.
She thinks she’s in love.
She thinks she’s in Spain.
She isn’t in love,
She’s merely insane.
It must be the heat
Or some rare disease,
Or too much to eat
Or maybe it’s fleas.
Keep away from her,
Send for Chino!
This is not the
Maria we know!
Modest and pure,
Polite and refined,
Well-bred and mature
And out of her mind!
I like the Musical set in Manhattan. The oppressed Jets and Sharks, killing each other, while love struggles to survive.Tragedy, like death, stirs the conscious mind to higher realms.
Death, where is thy sting?
or, from Shelly’s Adonais in honor of the dearly departed John Keats, age 25:
from Stanza 39 of 55:
“Peace, peace! He is not dead, he doth not sleep—-
He hath awakened from the dream of life—–
‘Tis we, who lost in stormy visions, keep
With phantoms an unprofitable strife,
and 41(entire):
He lives, he wakes—–’tis Death is dead, not he;
Mourn not for Adonais, thou young Dawn,
Turn all thy dew to splendour, for from thee
The spirit thou lamentest is not gone;
Ye caverns and ye forests, cease to moan!
Cease, ye faint flowers and fountains, and thou Air,
Which like a mourning veil thy scarf hadst thrown
O’er the abandoned Earth, now leave it bare
Even to the joyous stars which smile on its despair!”
*********************************************************
With all that said,
I’d rather be deadLY
‘Gainst Empire than dead
Just yet, for that Society.
So, there are actually two:
One in the Williams movie
And another that is rather new!
And to Empire, ’tis mortal, Deadly.
It lives, it wakes
With all that said
Thanks Sladerie for the lyrics and especially for your kind and generous good wish.
Of course Saladerie .

and mods if concerned
JJ is me, also…JJ cos there were problems on computer tablet trying to use JJ as it was coming up JJ underscored which I have no knowledge as to how to that intentionally————-
..J was also me with a typo J missing….trying to post too many comments!!!!….I too have noticed other variations with J or j , these are not me, but someone else. I try to stay consistent—-sighs.
All the very best, take care-keep internet safe!!!!!
Ok, I posted an answer to you, when I saw you in the last anaysis by The Saker on this issue, but was edited as “off-topic” ( well, to my view, all the thread has gone off-topic all the way, going each one in the direction it felt like, i.e…I do not know how in the Earth, from a comment about Freemasonry to which I answered, and that was totally on-topic since The Saker was comenting about this in his post, all the following comments derailed towards “homosexuality”, so, off-topic depending on whoever considers it ).
Now it is clear to me, JJ, I made my comment after seeing …J, ….JJ, and also J, feeling quite confused, but now you have cleared, and I come to the conclusion that right now we have “JJ”, who is you, and “J” who is the new Chinese commenter original from Chengdu but living in the US right now.
Then I have another doubt, since I am seeing posts by “Uncle Bob 1” and also by “uncle Bob 1” in which seemed to me very different views, especially on The Donaald and The Hillary issue, and I am confused again. So, it would be good that this could be cleared also. I saw one commenter who claimed that this was his own name when Uncle Bob 1 ( the one of always ) complained about this new commenting with his same nick.
Since I really appreciate Uncle Bob 1, as one of the oldest commenters here who always has mantained not only the same line in his thinking but also independence of thinking, I think is really the trolling group who is impersonating the last remaining independet thinking here as well as attacking those who have dared to come back in order to confuse people.
Here is some very political mockery from disillusioned Bernie Sander’s supporters

Perhaps we could have a thread entirely devoted to poetry, and leave this thread for general daily politicaal/news discussion that doesn’t fall under a specific topic. The several-page-long epic poems around difficult to scroll past.
Totally agree, the cafe was opened as an open thread to post off-topic comments, or whatever.
As I have always liked to share music with you all, something the oldest remining here could certify, even long time before this cafe was opened, and as I like a fun more than any other thing, I plead guilty of have fallen to the derailing humorous thing, at first, with whom I thought were well intentioned people.
But right now, the cafe is totally hijacked by a certain group making impossible to post anything serious or interesting without the ubiquitous mocking tone appearing and, anyway, almost impossible to find the interesting issue amongst the flood of poems.
So, I would also ask for an special poetry cafe for the “okupas” and open a real “open thread” for the rest.
My thoughts exactly dear. The wisdom of the laureates in a special corner.
perhaps the poetry could have been the ‘read more’-oooops, we no longer have that…………only joking, don’t panic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Time for all mods and fixers to have a bit of a rest from recent blog struggles,although I am appreciative of the efforts made to brighten things up…we had very many commentators I did not recognise when we were all commenting on the “new blog”-
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-
most poems are tied into the comment subject matter I had thought………….
Nice video! Captures the mood of Betrayal Bernie’s Burned Believers.
The red mushroom cloud was a nice touch, near the end. Only it should have been used a lot more to rub in the dangers of Hitlery, since that issue Trumps all others in this election.

@ Eimar
TTIP will come and will rule Europe, that is, corporate power will be the rule soon and corporate power means open unashamed fascism. I’m afraid Russia will have to fight another Great Patriotic War
Lost my comment – it was about TTIP being the wedge for open fascism in Europe. Some been have been lulled into apathy believing some politicos’ soothing assurances that TTIP is dud dead in the water but don’t believe it.
How come the same treaty with Canada was also supposed to be dead because of the flimsy opposition of Wallonia yet, without fanfare, it was quietly signed behind close doors. Democracy, if ever there was one, is dead and buried.
I saw that; unparalleled corporate swinish effrontery, and a pilot example of the expectations of TTP, TTIP, whatever the fascist trade deals being cooked up. Let us hope that kind of insults will galvanize ordinary Italians, et. al. to smash the oligarchy by whatever means necessary.
A poem leapt up into the conversation!
Making points full of exclamation!
Points! Everywhere! Points!
Pointing !! To questions!
Omitting punctuation Proper.
Up jumbling All The words.
Up Mixing metaphors and causing
The vowels to howl! In lines of rhymes
Wearing mismatched tenses the sentences all ran together Away
With the Consonants!
Who had become!
Resplendent! Lively! Alliterations!
In the acrobatics of the alphabet
Who Could Tell?
The prepositions not to dangle
In “Free Fall”.
The “scare quotes” try to own the word.
But they could not grasp the poem!
Who had leapt off the page!
And disappeared
Between the lines!
Leaving only
A trail of silly rhymes.
“What’s the point.”.
“It’s a hoax.”.
“A peasant joke.”.
“Another conspiracy.”.
“Silly Poem theory”>
“Don’t buy into it.”.
“Waste of Rhyme.”>
“Period.”

In case you missed this kinterra, i’d still be interested to try & understand why you think what you think /moveable-feast-cafe-2016-11-04/comment-page-1/#comment-291165
Thanks for asking what I think. After election til late last night I’m really tired. And, I will be away for a few days, and won’t have time to properly respond. So I apologize for not writing very well tonight.
The whole hell thing is so misunderstood. God does not punish. God is Supreme love. The sense of punishment comes when some one like Hillary for example comes face to face with God. Standing before the source of pure love, She judges herself, knowing she is little more than a will know a misery in creation. In the face of Divine Love she will experience such burning shame for having nothing to offer the universe except her lying, destructive machinations. As she reviews her own choices she will feel like she is in hell. Then comes forgiveness and trying again in the next life.
But on the God thing see my post below with the link to Alex Jones- I’m so taken with what he said.
K
Oh dear, kinterra neither do I like Jones – he quotes Trump as e.g. promising to bring jobs back to the US at the same time as the Chinese are getting machines to do them (in my book that makes Trump a liar and Jones a fool , at best) – see /moveable-feast-cafe-2016-11-04/comment-page-1/#comment-290680 for that detail.
Quote:
“The whole hell thing is so misunderstood. God does not punish. God is Supreme love.”
Deuteronomy 6:15:
“New International Version
for the LORD your God, who is among you, is a jealous God and his anger will burn against you, and he will destroy you from the face of the land.”
I can only ask you the same question again, do you have a link (or links) to what a particular deity (or deities) have revealed that you actually subscribe to so I can perform a little due diligence with regards the basis of your faith?
I hope you can enjoy your trip.
Hi, kinterra, thanks for your poetry, really love it ! Here is something from my part, the last one – at least for a while :
For a while
Oh, is there silence in the classroom ?
The teacher comes and now is boom !
“Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa”
Saying pupils, singing in the chorus
“We are the good ones, we have the bonus”
That’s life, once flying high, once flying low
Take your chance, there comes your show
I’ll pack my papers from the table
Take the candle and all my fable
I’l pick my hat, I’ll pick my pen,
I’ll drink my cup and say “Amen”
You, Poets, don’t follow on my way,
I’m staying here, I’m not so far away
The flavor of Cafe is still in my senses
To leave it now, that would be sensles
It wouldn’t be good, nor even smart
It would be treason in the name of Art
But now, I will say good by…
At least to poetry, for a while
kinterra
that’s a jolly good poem that is, a dammed good poem sir, especially like this bit, if i may
say so sir:

A Russian voice from almost a century ago muses on the nature of bees – and the insights they offer on human nature:
http://www.thebellforum.com/content.php?r=22-Bees-by-Dimitri-Pisarev&s=e00d1cbf87cb91598210c875a4ece716
A wonderful read, and a blessed relief from the noise of the US elections.
Dimitri Pisarev, I salute your transcendent mind and spirit!
Eimar, thank you so much for that contribution. I have sampled it and found it to be yummy. The rest I will save for later this evening, to consume in place of the nasty fare guaranteed to be delivered by the MSM. A gift. Thanks again.
So glad you found it restorative GrandmaR.
Me too :-)
Eimar
I foolow GrandmaR appreciation. At the beginning I thought it will be something usual, bu it wasn’t for my pleased surprise : “The worker bees are pitiable pariahs that do not feel their own humiliation, are unable to deliver themselves from it and maintain the following generation in the same humiliation, so that they, in their turn, will act in the same outrageous conservative spirit, and so on ad infinitum.They are proletarians oppressed by the existing order of things, enchained in irremediable slavery, treading the mill unaware of any better condition.” – Thanks !
I meant “follow” – please mod repair it. thanks
A lovely piece, a true prose poem. As I was left hanging by the unfinished or perhaps censored ending, I had to look up what happened to the lordly drones as winter comes and food becomes scarce:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drone_(bee)
‘Drones die off or are ejected from the hive by the worker bees in late autumn, and do not reappear in the bee hive until late spring.’
and
‘In areas with severe winters, all drones are driven out of the hive in the autumn. A colony begins to rear drones in spring and drone population reaches its peak coinciding with the swarm season in late spring and early summer. The life expectancy of a drone is about 90 days’
from his description: ” Chinese hatred that the bees have for foreigners..” (smile) we are all creatures of the times we live in–even to our use of metaphor or generalization. Thanks for the article.
I found that pretty droll.
He has a ‘wicked’ sense of humour, very Russian.
I mean that in a good way :-)

They learned that trick from the EU and, as prospective putative possible potential wannbe future member, a good pupil. Anyway, soon enough Europe will descend into open fascism and then Ukraine will be at home.
yup-wel known ukrainian blogger, check out his other vids………occaisionally I post his links-well coupla times year incl last Sunday–time methinks again for an amazing Donbass sitrep v Ukraine….
How long before the neocons behind the Clinton dynasty wack Trump?
Or was it either all planned this way or perhaps irrelevant who wins?
So, we have a new president.
Option 1) Oh-drone-blah will blame Putin, Assange and aliens of rigging & meddling – issues a Martial Law and/or will prepare for military punishment of the guilty ones
Option 2) Some “lonely nut” will kennedize Donald – Obomber issues Martial Law to avoid civil disobedience – and the current movie will continue ad nauseum
Option 3) anyone?
If he is real, then history tells us he will get assassinated; smart move thanking the Secret Service in his speech. Being world-weary I expect he will either fall into line with the status quo, or their numerous other centres of power will make his program impossible. How can he stand before the might of international capital?
This is not going to be pretty, but at least we are now moving again.
I have had similar thought line during the whole campaign.The Hydra he is facing in not just in the US, but is f***ing huge, rotten & powerful. If Don means that, he will need all support from all the resistance axis countries around the world facing the unipolar globalists. God luck and let’s hope, he will not get an offer, which can’t be refused…
America, I love you.
watched DT acceptance speech–I liked it when he said there were over 200 General and Admirals supporting him….will deal fairly and squarely……..but what damage can HC do in her last moments, put “malware” in the “system”, do everything to find something against him, discredit, disqualify….take usa down a road that he cannot come back from……..will she be impeached, prosecuted to ensure the last nails are put in the coffin lid before she exits…because never again must there be such a corrupt system of governance in usa and machinations of these politicians and cronies……………HC has been performing well last coupla weeks but may need some extra or change in medication now?
The world dodged a broomstick November 8. I’ll take only one or two minutes to celebrate the demise of that dangerous ding-aling shell of a human being. Don’t give this strategic break short shrift. There was great adversity, now turned to opportunity. A time for vigilance, but bold steps to keep the enemy on their heels.

Trump is the new US president, a lot of expectations are hanging on his shoulders.
The US “world” western world relies on the US military enforcing the use of the US dollar as international trade currency. The vassal state politicians, banks, investors, financial people all rely on US enforcing the use of the US dollar. More so in the US.
If Trump can pull off what he has been saying and pull the US out of it’s roll as global hedgemon, the western financial system will crash. Hard times for a bit, but then things will start to improve for the average shit kicker in the US “world”.
But because there is so much at stake it is hard to see Trump being inaugurated as President.
Be interesting to see what happens over the next couple of months until inauguration.
There’s a saying by the old gang-leader W. Churchill that goes about: “Amerika did everything wrong but at last it did the right thing.”
That was in my mind along the whole campaign.
Now America, not hijacked, looking inward:

Some trivia discussion on that quote from Churchill:

(a what? nothing, just a)
out with the old and in with the new
it’s trump that’s trumped the lot
praise the lord says quite a few –
things were getting fearful hot …
this age is way out of sync –
do we stand half a chance
to swim and not to sink –
not to dance the last dance?
out! out! thou perilous age!
cafe guests raise your glasses
let’s drink to a great outage
for poets brand new passes!
Hooray! Hooray never say die
to poets deadly laughing wit
limitless and free as the sky
outaging in with a trumpet!
a
Welcome “a”, nice knowing you, but gotta run,
This bros got work to do, in the California sun.
There is room for cautious optimism, but remain on high alert!
The Illumi-naughty are not dead yet, but they certainly are hurt.
This is a fragment, for lack of time:
Illumi-naughty IN the Potty
The topography of the battle has shifted
But the war is hardly over. A pall has lifted
Over the entire sleeping western hemisphere!
Courage is on the rise, to kick the ass of Fear.
How’d it happen???:
1. The American people are not quite as dumb and stupid as they look….
2. The Russian people are beautifully stubborn, that’s basically what it took!
To be finished later, Thursday, but you get the drift. A study in consciousness, in verse or prose……..
@93: oh fare thee well but not good bye. waiting for your poem on Thurs. Love the controversy and the moderators doing what they do best…refereeing the fray.
Thanks for sharing this very good poem, feel free to say what you have in your heart, for when art is targeted, sad times are waiting for us. Trying to shut down the mouth was always a questionable behavior. For what are we fighting for ? I lived through times when such things were shut down with force, do we never learn ? I won’t teach anyone what to do or what to think, every soul is free to choose his way and everyone has his own opinion on certain things. The time will tell. Once, I wrote a poem “The Truth” , does somebody remember ?
A poem just
About to write
The bottom line
packed up the rest
Of Its cache.
Some penciled fragments
Fell through
The holes of its pockets.
A few breadcrumbs
Left a trail for
Some few hungry fools
Wandering homeless
Towards Elysian fields
Said to be the place where
Dead poets never die.
hi ioan
k
k,
What is this! Lift up your pen and write, never give up the fight. You have such light, which shall not be held tight but shine for all. One fallen star is a loss for all,
Away with your crumbs – chunks of bread words for the cafe’s hungry visitors. Thank you. Full stop. Period.
Hi, kinterra, thanks for your poem, always appreciated !!!
a for alpha? fine let us all do poeting on the way to each omega! Let a thousand alphas bloom.
RT.com has just been declared, the day Donald Trump was elected US President, a Russian propaganda, fictional, arm of Russian government by writing lies where alternative news is expected.
This is pure US propaganda to attempt to make the rt.com excellent alternative news followed by 77 million seem shady, dishonest. But I think should be addressed seriously.

Attn: What Killery, the high Priestess of Evil, has unleashed upon us here in the USA
Today a neighbor, after threatening to move to Costa Rica , moved onward to threaten to kill President elect Trump. This was after we had a discussion of why I had voted for Killery.
Then I realized what Killery has done with her scurrilous, hate filled slander of Russia: She inflicted that thought form onto the air waves of America and into the cultural medium or, if you will, zeitgeist and it sits still festering, unfocused now on Russia yet throbbing to be dissipated. And she uses the resentments buried deep between men and women as a kind of twisted mental sexual malignancy to fuel it. The neighbor in question was the victim as a child of truly of horrendous experiences in the foster care system. If you take seriously some folk’s claim that Killery has studied black magic, then, you will understand that this is a big problem.
So I took a big breath and said, ” Look, you need to understand that what you just said, besides being hate speech, is a felony as Trump is the President elect , so , please watch what you say as I don’t want anything to happen to you.”
This stuff is TNT . Keep up your protection everyone and especially all hearts which beat for Micha el, fiery Prince of Thought, because you will become a focus of forces.
correction: why I had not voted for Killery.
now my weekly stuff is together
in a week like none
in the life of of us all
rednecks pulled mother Gaia
from the brinkmanaged fall
I love America polling
their Donald and breathe
with the planet in late relief

Appreciate your great passion in doing this great work and put it together. Thanks mundo !
I always cringe when I think of the slogan “The war to end all wars”, used to buck up the home front during WWI. Obviously the People were getting sick of feeding their children into the war machine, and were in need of a new cause to fight for. This was also always my impression of the US Civil War; that they tacked on the moral crusade to free the slaves after the war machine started to run dry. The war to end all wars meme always seemed twisted and evil to me, especially considering what happened only a generation later.
But late one night before Remembrance Day it fell into place, what the meme truly meant. Our ancestors cheered when war broke out in 1914, they were off on an overseas adventure that would be all over by Christmas. That enthusiastic lust for war bled out into the mud of Flanders, and the West bears deep scars of white marble in every town and city. But this wasn’t enough to embed the lesson, so we did it again in 1939, only worse.
The cynical “last war” did not eventuate in 1918, or 1945; the elites only gained from the wars, while we paid the price. But late one night on Remembrance Day eve it came to me. Maybe it means we will never again enthusiastically cheer for war, that we know now exactly what it means, and who will pay the cost. WWI was that inhumane, that evil that it has forever changed our image of war. Yesterday the American people voted not to launch WWIII. Without “The war to end all wars”, we would be at war with Russia already. And while that slogan was meant to give succour to grieving Mothers, it may echo down the ages, and those Mothers may have sacrificed their sons for something after all.
This to me is the meaning of “Lest we Forget”; never to do it again.
RIP Edward, Thomas & Hurtle Potter, who died in the broken ground before Mouquet Farm Sept 3-4 1916. Your family will never forget. We owe our peace to you.
hope so-my great uncle Archie , 1916 September, near Salonika(that campaign is under informed generally, not well known)…….was out on recon against Bulgarian artilliary…doing drawings, got scratched by thorn-caught septicaemia—–horrible way to go out there if you read about it, very poor hospitals, men’s faces covered with flies in high temperatures, supturating wounds malaria etc . Only about 10 years ago did we discover that he had got married and that she had actually survived to be in a care home until then————-but us kids were never told about her existence by our older relatives. Why on earth not we have no idea. Strange. Archie you are not forgotten, though we never met you.
This is what he wrote before in July
“A Ballard of Homesickness
As falcon stoops to swiftly take
By one sure swoop the watching crake
I my love,to thee would fly
Gainsaying rest nor sloop, till I,
All blessed in thy presence stand
in our own home, in God’s own land.
Like as bees return to hive
and from it their wealth derive,
Believe that I would come to thee,
In thee to rest, from troubles free-
Glorious hour, to kiss your hand
At our own home, in God’s own land.
in God’s good time I shall return,
Let us a mighty patience learn,
And fortitude, which means soul-strength
By patience,time will lose in length:
In strength of soul one day we’ll stand,
Gathered to home, in God’s own land.
Altho” an earthly song I sing,
It needs not beat of angel’s wing,
Love, to understand what’s meant
Kindred home in firmament
In which one day, God grant we stand
Divided no more, in God’s homeland.
Salonika 1916.”
Very talented poem, this plus 1 photo is all we have of him.
Very talented indeed, it’s sad that such brave and talented young man had to die in a war. Thanks for sharing it !
That’s quite a lot to have, actually. Thank you for sharing Uncle Archie.
ah, the inverted logic of fools
“A war with Russia could be imminent if President-elect Donald Trump follows through with his promises to scale back US involvement in NATO, British defense chiefs have reportedly warned.
A number of British military commanders cited in the Daily Mail urged the UK and Europe to increase defense spending in response to Trump’s repeated threats on the campaign trail to opt out of NATO’s mutual defense pact, which holds that an attack on one member state is an attack on all.

“From a security point of view this may be the wake-up call Europe needs,” Former Royal Air Force (RAF) chief, Sir Michael Graydon said last night, according to the paper.
“We can expect Trump to be quite serious on this one, he will not forget it. If European nations do not raise their game then there are real concerns over the future of NATO.”
“If the US leaves NATO it would be absolutely disastrous and just what Vladimir Putin would like. If a situation occurs in the Baltic where we need to take a firm stance, the credibility of this would be lacking without the US.”
General Lord Dannatt, former head of the Army, said: “We’ve seen Donald Trump threaten all sorts of things, we should take that threat seriously.”
“From a UK point of view we have to think about increasing our own defense expenditure.
“We should actually realize that Trump means it and states have to do more about their own role in NATO. If the US walks away, Nato ceases to exist, almost by definition, so we would have to invent something else. In the context of Brexit that is ridiculous.”
The reported remarks were echoed by European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker, who said on Wednesday that Europe cannot rely on security guarantees from Washington.
“The idea that the Americans will eternally see to… European security is not true. Independent of the outcome of the US election, the Americans will not see to Europe’s security forever. We have to do it ourselves. And this is why we need a new approach to the European community of defense, including a European army,” Juncker said in Berlin.
Trump repeatedly criticized the alliance as a Cold War relic and signaled that as president, he would consider the contributions of an ally to NATO before lending American military aid. The US currently contributes more than 70 percent of the alliance’s expenditure.
The one-time reality TV personality has also signaled he would take a softer stance on Russia than his predecessor. Trump has called for greater cooperation between the two countries in the fight against terrorism.”

This is a bit about travelling.
Its hard to write this cos most of it is not about colour of skin, nor religion, nor politics, nor countries or anything (I obviously want to make love to you or I wouldn’t be here in your country with my girlfriend/now wife)
I don’t really care about your politics or religion..My wife and I come from Lancashire in England…
You know The Beatles?/
Manchester United???
and then we introduce ourselves- with gestures and stuff
We come from Lancashire….
We never meant any harm. we don’t do guns or anything..
You know Coronation Street?
Tony & Bride???
We never knew what was going to happen next…and sometimes it was completely Brilliant..when they gestured to us both,,,take your shoes off…which we did..and they took us into the inner sanctum as if we were their chosen gods,
It was a Festival somewhere in South India..10,000+ people there
Music Fireworks..The Lot…
My Wife and I were the only White People There…
She is a Natural Angel..The Women just passed their Babies for us to Bless
Its hard to explain this..
We were just there.
It happened.
You try and put it into words and it simply does not make any sense
How can people in a Very remote inland part of Southern India quite Obviously Love us English, Lancashire People So Much??
Had Paul McCartney and the One Legged Blonde bees there Before us???
They kept looking at my Wife’s Two Legs in perfect Condition..
“Oh a Miracle”
Thank God they didn’t ask me to sing or play guitar.
She booked the holiday to Kerala in India..at very short notice…
We had no idea where we would end up..Apparently Paul McCartney and his Girl at the Time had also been there (she lost her leg in a motorcycle accident) it wasn’t Linda…nor his latest. Maybe her name is now on the scrapheap of history
– but she was pretty blonde girl with one leg who married paul mcartney…
I have still got mine – and she has still got two legs

I was impressed by what Alex Jones said at 3 am at the end of the election. I generally don’t watch him, but really respect his bit here. It’s a 10 minute clip. Be sure to watch to the end- the part about the amniotic fluid is stellar! This is the real story of the time in which we live.
k
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJp6GygI92Y
Ditto. Alex has my respect.
I was always a bit amused by his gravel voice, his hawking of vitamins and populist simplicity but also always disagreed with those in the “freedom” movement that looked down on Alex Jones. But I almost never chose to watch him. Not my style. A little too raw. He’s much, much more like the typical awakening American than I am or will ever be. And that’s why he resonates, many orders of magnitude more than I would, even if he gave me his Info Wars studio.
For some reason, two nights ago, I went on to Info Wars live election coverage at about 6 pm Pacific Time, through until the concession by Killary and the acceptance by the Donald, about 6 hours. But I turned in before the clip you shared here. It caps off my election night experience and keen interest in this populist consciousness arising in this land.
My big thing since the beginning of 2016 has been Consciousness, “where the rubber meets the road”. Especially the matter of the balance of intellect, thought, left brain analysis with spirit, emotion, care and right brain intuition. The “Holy Wedding” of the Sacred Masculine and the Sacred Feminine.
I had never heard of Roger Stone (or some of the other guest commentators and analysts) that I saw Tuesday night on the live Info Wars election coverage. But one thing struck me about Alex: While he deferred quite a bit to Roger in terms of the latter’s experience in politics and particularly in Roger’s acquaintance over many years with Trump, Alex repeatedly invoked his own “gut”, intuition, feelings, spirit etc frequently for all those hours. Saying it had never steered him wrong, and that it was telling him things like:
That the Empire would strike back.
That it is a spiritual war.
That there was a landslide awakening in America that overwhelmed the vote fraud, but they were still trying their best to steal it for the globalists, holding back a long time on declaring Florida, then Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan for Trump. I agree with Jones that the real vote for Trump may have been considerably larger than counted, and ALL of it was needed to overwhelm the fraud.
That the higher echelons of the globalists were already planning assasination options, and of course co-opting options flooding his cabinet with traitors to his vision, which is not a perfect vision, but is not out to grind people up and enslave them, as is the vision of the globalists behind Hitlery and the vast majority of the Republican Party flunkies and stooges they will try to tie up the Donald with, like Gulliver.
And it was interesting to get acquainted with an old time politico Trump acquaintance like Roger Stone but also many young Info wars staffers like Owen Shroyer, here:
https://youtu.be/kM_jJ-wjjE4?t=1132
and young ladies like Lee Ann McAdoo and Margaret Howell discussing how they actually feel for poor Ding Dong The Witch is Dead Hillary:
https://youtu.be/sWzgSJ26k2o?t=109
And in particular enjoying the consternation and deer in the headlights panics of their feminine counterparts at CNN and MSNBC.
So, I think the main thing is that consciousness is rising…………..MSM and 911 in particular are and were about driving it down, but people are increasingly in various states of waking up, and this is about pushing that forward world wide, not whining about Trump’s imperfections, or sitting back and watching how all this turns out. When people realize that it’s about how it turns out inside of them, in their minds, spirits and actions, and not in some exterior events they are mere spectators of then the Empire’s counter attack will be overwhelmed as was the vote stealing, rigging you absolutely need to know was in place Tuesday. But was not enough.
Therefore, short rests, like nightly sleep. But no more Rip Van Winkle tuning out for decades, people. Consolidate for DECADES. Don’t stop.
“When people realize that it’s about how it turns out inside of them, in their minds, spirits and actions, and not in some exterior events they are mere spectators of”
This is simple truth in the focus, great Bro. And simply working with the Gods creates marvels.

ABU DHABI (QHA) –
The event was attended by representatives of the Ukrainian Embassy and the Consulate of Ukraine in the city of Dubai. Some of them turned out to be Crimeans from Simferopol and Sevastopol. Diplomats addressed the viewing audience and briefly told the true story about Russian aggression in Crimea, describing its implications and stressing the importance of the “Crimea. The Resistance” docudrama.
The Ukrainian film made a positive impression on the audience. They spoke about it as an interesting and informative one, pointing out that the film revealed the truth about the actions of Russia in the Crimea.

Earlier in the day another two suspected saboteurs were taken to the Leninsky court, which is to choose a measure of restraint. The hearing on the case is held behind closed doors.
The total number of the detained suspects remains unknown.
Russia’s FSB said earlier in the day it had detained suspected members of Ukrainian Defense Ministry’s sabotage group in Sevastopol on Wednesday who allegedly plotted acts of sabotage at Crimea’s military facilities. The service claimed that powerful explosive devices, weapons and rounds of ammunition, means of special communications and also maps of facilities had been seized from the detained persons.
Ukraine’s Defense Ministry has denied that any of its employees had been detained by Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) in Crimea.

It is Remembrance Day again here in OZ. I have woken, put my usual “earn it” post on Facebook, pinned on my hand-made poppy and started organising at work for a trip down to the memorial for 11:00. This one is particularly sweet, as from under the darkening clouds of war, the American people let through a ray of light. The war may be only delayed, but at least we know the American people don’t want it. And what an unlikely peace candidate you have given us!
A boyhood fascination with war led to a lifetime of study. I learnt the where, the when, the who, the how, but I couldn’t find the why. So history led to politics, to sociology, to anthropology, to psychology, to no avail. So finally economics, almost there. The closest I got was inside Orwell’s 1984, the book-inside-the-book called “The Theory and Practice of Oligarchical Collectivism”, by the character Emmanuel Goldstein. I won’t go into it here, but I recommend reading it.
The book that ended up teaching me what I needed to know was the Art of War, history’s greatest anti-war treatise. Like many of us, Sun Tzu studied war his whole life. In the end, what he learnt was war cannot be predicted, that there is no science to it. His conclusion was that wars are won before any shots are fired, by successful chess-play during peacetime. The resort to war is only taken by the loser of the chess game, as they think as they have already lost, it is worth rolling the dice to see if they can steal a victory. War is the tactic of losers, ego-driven psychopaths who have tipped over the board and are thrashing on the floor in a foaming tantrum.
Next time one of the foaming psychopaths starts beating the drums for war, like we do with our children are having a tantrum, just ignore them. They will get loud, but in the end they will go off sulking to their rooms to pout. War can only ever help the elites, next time they call a war, no-one should turn up.
Lest we forget…never to do it again.
