Anna Mae Aquash

if Anna Mae Aquash can be the rain

i can be the breeze

that carries bird songs

to your ear

no more mountains to ascend

no more hills to take a stand

only gentle falling rain’s memory

of soft paws and warm heart

We Came Back As Your Grandchildren

!

see how we paint and pierce our bodies?
Custer came back as and Indian does it
make anyone’s blood boil and would that be
the red man’s or the white man’s blood boiling?
what if we bonk someone and the person we bonked
will carry with him the right to bonk the bonker when he reincarnates
like a movie stuck on rerun
the only way off is to stop bonking
those who are rattlers and shakers
drummers and myth makers
understand all hoops have been broken
i’m ok if yer ok
now our circle widens
even as it heals
with no shame throw the first rock
with no sorrow stand up and cheer
my loss is heavy with me
my love says letting go
is what we do with flowers and stars
when the world turns…
but i’m dreaming
waiting for someone to say
“We are all illegal immigrants!”

What Republican Would Not Sacrifice Our Children For Oil?

Honorable Congressman Ron Paul would NOT.
(Republican and from TEXAS, even)
The only presidential candidate for 2008
who has the courage to speak the truth
even as the nine other Republican candidates denounce him
for stating the obvious
9/11 was directly connected to American Foreign Policy
and NO
they don’t hate us for our wealth or way of life
IT IS NOT ENOUGH, Hillary Clinton,
to say “When I am president I will get us out of Iraq”
when it could be done today
with the constitutional power given congress
STOP
FUNDING THE WAR
PERIOD.

Who has the credentials to broker peace between Israel/Palestine?

?

Who brokered a peace treaty in the middle east that has held for 38 years?

Anwar Sadat, Jimmy Carter and Menachem Begin signed the Egypt-Israel treaty in Washington on March 26, 1979.

Amber Wilkerson, Republican spokeswoman said it was hard to take Carter seriously because he also “challenged Ronald Reagan’s strategy for the Cold War.”

What was Ronald Reagan’s Cold War strategy? Iran/Contra.

Iran/Contra translated: Obtain illegal monies to finance the Contras when Congress refused funding.

What are the Republicans willing to sacrifice to stay in power by providing cheap gas?

OUR CHILDREN, that’s what!

Enhanced Interrogation Techniques

.

Mit Romney, the born-again Reagan
manicured and selling snake-oil
torture, by any other name, is still torture
the fear – a ticking time bomb
the tacky heart – the killer…
Tammy Baker is heard from from her death bed
on the very day of Falwell’s death accuses him
of stealing her and Jimmy Baker’s followers
who stole Billy Graham’s?
Not to worry, Rich Fat Cats
what you do unto others
will be done unto you
Not to worry, Compassionate Liberals
what you forgive others
will be forgiven you
Oh 18 top presidential candidates
who will deal with the devil
speak like a charismatic angel
promise security where there is none
it is
the nature of enslaved peoples
to revolt(.)

Bush’s Iraqi Puppet, Khalaf, Axes Photographing Bombings

?&!!@?

“Abdel Karim Khalaf, said this weekend that Iraq’s government decided to bar news photographers and cameramen from the scene of bombings.

If it was decided “this weekend” why did this announcement wait until today (Tuesday)?

“The order was aimed at preventing journalists from inadvertently tampering with evidence needed for investigations, protecting the privacy and human rights of those wounded and keeping insurgents and militias from keeping track of their success rate, Khalaf said.”

And who protects the human rights of those killed or maimed by the bombings – and the rights of their families and friends to know what happened to them?

“He denied that the new regulation was aimed at curtailing press freedoms, saying other countries have similar restrictions.”

Whatever “other countries” Khalaf is referring to ARE curtailing press freedoms(.)

What happens to a top when spun? Before it winds down it runs out of control.

the whole world is awaiting George’s departure……

I’ll remember the arrogance of power
I cannot find one reason to kill
a million Vietnamese
and 49,000 of my generation.
I cannot find a reason for that wall in Washington
I cannot find a single domino after all these years.
we argue that chaos will surely come if we leave.
and what is our definition of chaos,
little water and electricity
fear
bombs in the street,
in the market
death squads
smart bombs with collateral damage,
invaders kicking doors
kicking doors.
We must not cut and run.
I’m not,
I’ll stay right here
beside my comfortable
symbolic fire,
no sir
not gonna cut and run,
not me.
My sarcasm overcomes me
I throw myself across the room.
I hit the wall.
I throw ol’ T.S. against the other wall.
He who had his wife arrested in a restaurant,
had her committed,
went to Harvard
never visited.
This is the man we say
set our pace.
We
accepted his wasteland.
Do I dare to eat an apple?
Cast him off
let him drift away
on the ripples of
a new poetry

Hannity vs. Geraldo

of the War Between the Roses
Hannity sees the thorns
Geraldo sees the roses

Which is greater
God’s laws or Man’s laws
and WHO’S God anyway?
when “God’s laws” create genocide
for the non-believers
whether they dress in suits and ties
or flowing robes and sandals
Mans Laws Only
are able to defrock genocide
collateral dammage or what-so-ever dubbed
it is the genocide of Roses
no matter how many hot houses contain them
no matter what shield that bears them
the Biblical God commanded man
to follow man’s laws (i.e. Caesar)
and He never said
to make God’s law the law of the land.
He left secular laws up to mankind
Armageddon was a prophecy not a prediction
all depending on whether we learn
to treat all others
as we wish to be treated
even a snake
refusing to shed it’s outer skin
will implode.

Hope and A Little Joy

.

deer fish i so not want to be tired
back to visits never seeming to end
there was a little joy for mother today
Giraldo Rivera
put a face on the suffering parents and children
our media keeps calling “illegals”
and offered this face of suffering especially to
Lou Dobbs
There are TWO distinctions between
Christians
no matter which of the 630 different sects
one claims membership in –
One distinct direction is
excusing themselves of compassion’s virtue
in the face of
what is currently on the books of
American Immigration Laws
While the other distinction is
compassion – even
while the senators debate
while the representatives haggle
and the president follows suit
spinning wheels, spinning words,
spinning time
till something else takes center stage
believing enough of we the people
are fickle minded and easily distracted
Few are called
but many are needed
fish full of mercury
cards
all cards
staring out the looking glass
do you hear the pouting in Shawn Hanity’s voice?
or the authority in Lou Dobbs’?
body language DOES speak louder than words Bill O’Reilly
Why are the cameras not turned on the women
around the world who stood
stood up for peace at one p.m.
their time, where ever they live
circling the earth’s 24 hour cycle

call it the return of the roses.

Pick A Pair of Dark Horses

🙂

put ’em in yer pocket
save ’em fer election 2008
fer example
Ron Paul and Jesse Jackson
pick an independent party name
like Rainbow Partners
where no one is more equal than any other
we’ve been down on the farm and we’ve seen Pariè
are we ready now to set ourselves free?
The only free election we can have
is instant zapping political advertising
make political contenders do something news worthy
to obtain exposure to voters
who are all too distracted by mud whizzing
O say, can’t you see…
those wealthy politicians fists full of money
losing all their power
with a simple zap
from we the people’s remote control.
