slumber of the ages

Post by revolutionR » February 28th, 2017, 6:28 pm

how long has humanity been unconscious
and by that I mean how long have we been
forced to live like surfs by a ruling elite

now days you hear a lot of talk about people
waking up to the reality of the world
like the new discovery that the news
the mainstream media does not really report
the news, but is this really some revelation

or is it the fact that things have gotten so insane
that people cannot just pretend that they
have been getting the real story from
the talking heads on the boo tube

so what is the real story, or the true one
well, let's just accept that there is tuns of
information out there now on the internet
and the discerning mind can find the ugly truth
do you really want to know what the powers
that should not be have been doing to us
humans for tens of thousands of years

so what happens when the humans wake up from centuries
of slumber, do you think the latest election was a wake up
do you think either of the people offered for us to vote for
were anything other then the same old system of control

do you think the truth is out there, what will we do when
enough people wake up on this beautiful planet
that the ruling powers have been trashing by their greed
do you think that of all the planets, stars, galaxies out there
in the vast multiverses, that we are alone in this cosmos

do you know about events taking place in Antarctica
there is a million other questions that need to be asked
because time is running out on this earth
we could be extinct as a species very soon
or perhaps our star friends could bring advanced technologies
and remove the dark forces that have been getting away
with murder for so long, it is a toss up

I am just a poet, I have not been contacted by any galactics
and as far as I can tell, the war in heaven drags on, so be it
and one other thing, i feel like I am still in first grade
because everything I just said is merely the tip of the iceberg
and believe me, poetry is a journey, because in first grade
I knew that things were not what they seemed
and when I first began writing poetry, I knew I had to learn
so much, but I had to unlearn a whole heck of a lot too
what a strange trip it has been, so I ask what will happen
when enough people see through the lies, and wake the F up

Your southern California bias is showing through... "surfs," not "serfs."

Things are insane, and they're just going to get insaner. That's my conclusion, proved without a doubt to this point, so roll with it.

Yeah, was never good at spelling, surfing serfs, or slave surfers, or like Jim Morrison said, "your all a bunch of slaves" all those people tripping on acid thought he was trying to be funny.
I don't know when I first got into poetry I had the draft hanging over my head, so my whole view from that perspective is that they were trying to force me to be a killer, so I had no illusions about land of the free. It is really so weird to think how if you your against the Vietnam war a lot of people liked to say love it or leave it. Because people believed what they were told, that we had to go kill people. As far as surf, I was never a board surfer, but I did do some body surfing, on southern calif. beaches, those were the days.

Vietnam was bullshit. I mean, the shitty, lying politics behind it mostly. I try to distinguish between the people sent to fight a bullshit war and the bastards in power who send them.

I think the earth is fairly hardy and resilient. It can take a hell of a lot of abuse-- more than we might suspect-- before going over the toxic edge. But the rock is a finite organism, by no means immune to our pollution and plunder. Planet rape and depletion is a major concern of unquestionable direct bearing on overall human welfare and survival. Ever-expanding markets, demand and consumption-- global capitalism's main premise (and illusion)-- ultimately can't be sustained.

Invading other countries, has never been about bringing Democracy, you don't impose Democracy by dropping bombs. In fact you totally are not being Democratic if you impose it. What is insane is that people actually believe it when some creep that stole the whitewash
house says that is why we are bombing another country. Yes the environment cannot tell Democracy from Communism, until there is nothing left to exploit. America is the bad conscience of the world. US military bases all over the world, is the new press going to change that. When you have psychopaths running the planet, you have monsters so greedy that they will blow up the planet to have the last laugh. What is going to save the humans
on this world that just want to live in peace with their loved ones and see their children
have a future. Make America great again, ha! what is going to bring back the purple mountains
and the green forests. America was great until the white people came, the people that lived here maybe were not perfect but they lived in harmony with the earth. But they did have stories that told them what was coming. It is difficult to comprehend how things happen on this planet, how the native people knew what was coming, and yet could do nothing to keep their way of life. There is only one spiritual way to live, and that is to treat the earth as a living entity.Only one sane way. So how did we get so insane. Some people think the Bible has the answers,but those
prophecies only raise more questions, you can praise God all you want, but unless that God is the same as the great spirit that the indigenous people know then who is this God. And this gives some idea how things got so insane. The people that came and forced their God on the natives, and murdered them to convert them. I think Islam is no different. And then there are the Zionists. I don't really think the Nazis lost the war
because a lot of them were brought over to America to run the space program. And then who are the small percent of UFO's that are not from the secret space programs. And the Pope
wants a new one world religion, which if you ask me is just a cheap ploy to keep the Vat-i-can-of-worms flush. Time to flush.

We were told a lie about that.

to try to ride a bike in a ruined swimming pool
to try to sing with a mic under the water without being electrocuted or drowned
maybe the nineties were also like that...
