Recent laws passed in the State of Texas regarding the right to buy and publicly show guns of any caliber in conjunction with the State of Florida’s `Stand Your Ground’ legislation should, I think, create some interesting outcomes. In an expression of dark humor; I coin the experience as a 21st Century Eugenics; ameans to cull the populace of those too ignorant to see the ridiculousness of both these pieces of legislation by the following illustration:

QUIZ:Name a Nation that most equitably, can be defined by ALL of the following terms given the official definition of such terms:
Sycophant: those whom act obsequiously (complaisance or deference) toward someone important in order to gain advantage.
Parasite: those whom habitually live at the expense of others; sponger (formerly) a sycophant and those whom practices opportunism, or the policy of adapting actions, decisions, etc., to effectiveness regardless of the sacrifice of ethical principles: An extreme opportunist and always thinks the ends justify the means.

Genocidal: the deliberate and systematic extermination of a national, racial, political, or cultural group.
Encompassed by the inhibiting, thickening shell of self-imposed limitation; a translucent barrier to opportunity’s living potential will, by the cruel passage of infinite time, become increasingly impervious to diminishing expressions of initiative to escape; relinquishing completely, inherent traits of strength born to mind and body; succumbing finally, to deliverance into darkness.
A poem reflective of the disparity and divisive nature of our growing, global society; a seemingly down-ward, spiraling condition perpetrated, instigated, promulgated, maturated, by a force like the force alluded to by the Star Wars saga; but, negative by its intent to persuade those so infused, to do the inhumane to humanity; enriching themselves along the way and so, made blind to them, the equal, counter-weight of purgatorial sufferance that awaits!

After watching/listening to RB’s rant on the mentioned topic; the narrative he concluded the piece with reminded me of a poem I wrote sometime ago that in my mind at least, responds to the message and thought I’d share the two and you can decide for yourself:
Universal Prayer: Oneness To All
This is not prayer seeking divine forgiveness
This is not prayer seeking divine healing
This is not prayer seeking divine love
This is not prayer in worship of a divine creator
This is prayer of Enlightenment
This is prayer of Knowledge
This is prayer of Connection
This is prayer of Oneness to All
For I am one with all that is
That my Soul’s energy
Is given to the power of Enlightenment
That the Oneness of All
Be recognized as creator to the All that exists
This enlightenment to the Oneness to All
Gives empowerment to the Knowledge:
That Connected – all that ails is healed
That Connected – all will arise harmonious in the Universe
That Connected – all will derive energies of love universal
That Connected – all will become One with the Universe
Let the light that is my soul’s energy
Flow out to the universe
So that all may benefit from its power
That my soul’s void be filled with the energies of their love.
Let the energy of love shine and emanate from you such that you may receive mine in return.
Darkening skies progressively envelops the world
As a growing, calamitous rebellion threatens to unfurl
Awaiting the spark to light the cannon fuse to imperil
Global, social civil-order collapsing in a downward swirl
World-wide austerity an IMF* invention
Usurping a nation’s wealth through monetary intervention
By central banks acquiescence without contention
Leaving tax payers lowered wages and depleted pensions
Fourteen years and growing
This global turmoil élite oligarch have been sowing
Their intent: to stimulate what is showing
A people’s uprising to an end they’ve long been knowing
Militarized police forces readied and in the waiting
Frothing for the conflict instead of political debating
Lives to be lost and arrests just for congregating
Main-stream-media the cowardice tool for infuriating
A rude awaking awaits the many, unaware masses
Manipulated, lost to electronic social-media’s rose-tinted glasses
When suddenly, their insular, virtual world finally collapses
Leaving them dumbfounded, lost and, flat on their gullible asses.
As a young man, early in my youth
I thought the world my realm
There would be nothing I couldn’t do
As captain steering this life’s rudder-helm.
But as the years past and, getting older;
The harsh realities of life taken root;
My ambitions it seemed, became less bolder,
As my true assessment of life; more astute.
Not to say things went totally array,
There have been successes along the way;
But, innocent naivety of youth does belie:
As more then simple ambition in life, is needed to play.
