Happy Mother's Day to the world

[still.trucking]

but most of all to a:

"A Free-Spirited Wanderer Who Set Obama’s Path"


In the capsule version of the Barack Obama story, his mother is simply the white woman from Kansas. The phrase comes coupled alliteratively to its counterpart, the black father from Kenya. On the campaign trail, he has called her his “single mom.” But neither description begins to capture the unconventional life of Stanley Ann Dunham Soetoro, the parent who most shaped Mr. Obama.

Thanks mom
you did good.

[still.trucking]

every day is mother's day for me
but today I am celebrating Obama's Mama's Day
What a good mama she was

[jimboloco]

i just got back from my o'bama mama's
indeed
was stoned th whole tyme
packed a big bud in my shoe
stood on it squashed
beneath the inner padding
an th soul, man,
stuffed with socks an packed between layers
no sweat

i walked up to her pad from around back
heard the laughter inside
knocked on the screen
they let me in
i started flapppng my by now cultivated
streamofconsciousness when
my brother was joking with his kids,
all married,
about something called "ass-burgers"
so i said, like,
"it that anything like furburgers?"

there was a moment of awkward silence
then, brother said,
"it's one of those moments of awkward silence,"
and we started up again

my little great niece krista came up to me and
we hd a lil chat about nursing
what my mom had wanted me to do an it was natural an true

[still.trucking]

Aspergers?

My mom told me not to let it all go to pot.

Now that the she has gone before me

Sometimes when I need religion I light a candle for her.

[jimboloco]

how wonderful
to cast an ass-persion another version
casting aspersions at my siblings an their kidz
in front of my mom who took it all in with a grin

light a candle for the ancestors,duh, man
be here now
55-plus senior city
mercy
no child's play cept in th mind's eye oh mye

[still.trucking]

I live and learn by hard lessons
But it is cool
I watched how the old woman planed her death
I will be grateful forever to Diamond Lil and Homeboy for letting her die as she wanted to die.

Oh lord but Saint Peter
Don't you call me yet
I owe my soul the company store.

I wish I was a kid of 55. 68 ain't so bad, but the broken bones coming back to haunt me again.

Hurt so bad yesterday I went to see the Doctor. She telling me how good I looked, asked me my age twice, she said she thought I said 48. And I am thinking but did not say, "hippies look good in the box."

Remember the nurse I did not keep the date with in Virginia a few years ago? I won't make that mistake again. I am still wondering if it was because I was scared I could not get it up again. But shit i ain't even tried in so many years how would I know.

Nothing like the scent of a woman to cheer a fellow up
But I can live without it. I think I miss the trucking more than the fucking. That is what this compulsive scribing on the net is, sublimated road lust. Or maybe that is not what it is.

You ever had a pity fuck?

oh well
I am still a fool with a warped sense of humor.

so be it.

[jimboloco]

fucking pity man
yes you can
every tried viagra
?
do you take nitrates
?

take some when you can relax
sip some liquor a bit
and puff some pot

it would be best to have the scent of a woman to cheer a fellow up
have her give youse a little blue pill
tell her it's a blueberry pill from up on the hill
ya wanna give her a thrill
tickle her swill
takes a long time ta tickle mary
an by then you'll see a miracle
ya gotta believe king cobra will heed th calllll

fuck the company store

[still.trucking]

I don't need Viagra Jim

But maybe that is because I have not tried in thirty years.

It was a hell of a shock to my vanity

when I did not walk around with tented pants anymore.


sometime in my thirties I discovered

it takes the presence of a woman to make it work

that nurse

I never had my blood pressure checked like that before

My arm was stiff for a week.

All I am saying is

I am schmuck

I used to drive a truck

I should have showed up

for her yoga class.

at least

"You always get what you got coming, you never have to ask"---jitterbug

[still.trucking]

I don't think you heard me jim

No body I am trying to get it up for.

But if she showed up at my door I would know if I need viagra.



These days I am more interested in walking than fucking.

I threw my I ching last week

Spooky

It was dead on. I have been blind sided. I need Ibuprophen more than I need Viagra these days.

Iching On line.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

This is a situation easily mistaken for Stagnation (Hexagram 12) or Revolution (Hexagram 49).
It just depends on which side you're on.
During a time of Stagnation, human worms invade to feed on the decay.
During a time of Revolution, oppression is being overthrown.
But in this situation, oppressors are violently seizing power.
Pay special heed when you receive this hexagram, because the oracle is often warning you of a situation of which you are totally unaware.
You are about to be blindsided.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:
"If you have grasped, let go."

Quote:


Walls meant to protect have instead separated and isolated.
Your defenses have kept you apart from those whom you most need to touch.
Whatever the reason for discord between you, it is time to lay down your arms.
Dispel the inflexible demands and fears of the Mind so that you may reunite in the Heart.
If you have begrudged, forgive.
If you have torn down, repair.
If you have injured, heal.
If you have judged, pardon.
If you have grasped, let go.

Happy obamas day!! evrybodie.

[still.trucking]

am i not my brother's haggis?
he ain't heavy - he's my haggis

--- constantine

He ain't heavy he is my commander and chief.

I wish him well because Bush and Cheney have left him a haggis of biblical proportions.

Funny how well reasoned op ed pieces leave me a raving lunatic. And a little poem can comfort me.

It is reassuring to know I am not yet beyound outrage.

Happy Obama day
everyday

Well it is a comfort to know that the US Government is too big to fail. Not in my life time anyway. The blessings of longevity.

"Well it is a comfort to know that the US Government is too big to fail. "
