One Day










13 Aug 2004, 15hrs 36min -4hrs offset

summer landscape


one day or another as well to remember or forget


understand or completely ignore, and the pages


reveal a life past colorful as a summer landscape,


came as easy as it went and as slippery


a slow retelling of the old stories, dates change


until things are so far away as to seem foreign


some one else, another time, and yet the memory


of ancestors that calls like a wave in the ocean


or a desert with very familiar dunes and a dèja


vu, inexplicable events and behavior that seem


preordained- a strong feeling forgets- a lot of words


to simply say I feel lonely or I miss love and remember


how sweet it once was. Sounds any more beautiful?


is an irrelevant question - words are not the same


like feelings and thoughts are not the same and


that there is no arguing about. Ni caso que tiene.


Earthworms flood the neighborhood when it rains.


And I hate earthworms And I'm not crazy about the 'hood.


Though I must admit I love the rain & rainy days.


Not one drop wasted.    5 May 2004 11:41PM NYC


Pain on rocks. feelings as nature. it is hard.


it is hard to live. like a friday fucking afternoon.


and stressful. wet rocks velvet revolver or guns 'n roses


rain so wet. rock so hard.


words write a feel representation- a dance of imagination


with desires and thoughts. words remember what is easy


forgets what is hard. words constan are witness and


pages are canvas. words are bodies in intercourse, page is a bed


page is your face when you discover these words anew... surprise

Oil Prices?

The United States have invaded Iraq, Halliburton has been awarded the task of overseeing probably the richest oilfields of the world. Why are gas prices in the United States the highest that they have ever been?

- -

It begins. Just announced was the fact that Bin Laden is believed to be on the run. I predicted some time ago, and continue to believe, that Bin Laden will be conveniently 'caught' to boost election support for G.W.Bush. By the way, I am not unique, alone, or even the first to believe this to be the case.

- -

More predictions: Regardless of what happens, or how things develop, regardless of who people vote for, and regardless of who gets elected in the 2004 US presidential elections, G. W. Bush will be the next president of the US.

- -

It's about money, stupid.

- -

I remember some guy repeating what was being repeated like mantra on the various mainstream news media, that things have changed dramatically since 11 September of 2001. I challenged him to explain why, though he chose to consider my challenge ludicrous and not answer. Things are just as "business as usual" now as they have ever been.

Is it possible they mean the United States citizens are forever changed? Considering Pearl Harbor, one can't say there is no precedent. About terrorist attacks, there was the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in 1993, and then the Oklahoma City bombing in 1994. IS IT POSSIBLE the United States citizens are just now becoming aware that their government has been raining terror all over the world? This hardly seems believable, after the VietNam disaster. The United States government is responsible (directly and indirectly) for terrorism all over the world, including El Salvador, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Colombia, Chile, Argentina, Indonesia, East Timor, Vietnam, Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, and others.

It is hipocrisy to claim to be outraged by the terrorist attacks in the US and not be outraged by terrorist attacks elsewhere in the world.
