Common Sense


Perhaps the grandest violation
Of pertaining situations
Is indeed the rank denial
As if it were some sort of trial
A perfect little regulation
Common sense wins by a mile!

Imperfect, yes, you understand
But on the other other hand
The Moon is there when we don’t look
Inanities to be forsook
We live indeed here in a land
That has closed it like a book

And why? Why violate
An attitude it is of late
To say it’s dead and don’t apply
A mote in our historic eye
Indeed we have entered a state
Which crucifies by and by

The tragicomic irony
Is that by seeing, we can’t see
We use the sense, itself, we do
To say that science proves it’s through
So setting sail on the lee
It calls itself untrue

The cat’s alive, the cat is dead
Get this nonsense out your head!
If it had not evolved, you see
They’d have an argument, to me
But, fact is, in nothing’s stead
Common sense have we!

I suppose.

It is what it is.
What we see must simply be true.
It would take a whole heap crazy.
To try and undo.

The senses reaffirm.
The science of new.
To question at all.
Must be a perspective askew.

A song played in absence.
Ofcourse plays on unheard.
An immeasurable silence.
Just seems absurd.

One feels the pinch.
We all gasp for breath.
The collective may lynch.
He who denies death.

The surety of dawn.
like the night that precedes.
Is strong argument to conform.
Against "reality deceives"

These must all be true statements.
We must all trust in such things.
Though if one can induce doubt.
Oh the freedom it brings.

Now


The objective, the goal
Is living now and here
But what are these, indeed?
If time, we supersede
What is it that we fear?
What is it that we need?

Living inside the present
Presents tricky meanings
Is time now not a factor?
Are selves not a reactor?
Despite popular leanings
The language has detractors

In point of actual fact
If time we have transcended
Then what is time but vanished?
The dimension grows famished
And what have we rescinded?
It’s time that we have banished!

So really, we must reckon
With what indeed we mean
The “present moment” lacking
As brain frames cease their stacking
What we have, then, on the scene
Is an infinity tracking

If we, deep in the present
As deep as one can get
Are really outside passing
Of moments, moments massing
It cannot be now, not yet
Dimensions we’re trespassing

In truth, there are no moments
In this present way up high
It isn’t now, not really
It’s eternity, ideally
And one may make a sigh
Existing, oh! so freely

Well first we must not be.
Purveyors of such a time.
We must pretend "I suppose".
To exist only within ones rhyme.

Meanings of moments are distances of sorts.
An understandings opposite force.
Though if everything was possible before.
Then even afterwards.. it still is ofcourse.

Confusions come when merging.
An line a circle and smoke.
Science amongst society.
Then the word that you think you spoke.

Allow a now irrationality.
No now need not get you very far.
For there is not any distance.
No time between you and the stars.

How long would it take you to travel.
From you head down too your foot?
How far between distant planets.
Well it depends on how you look.

The Abolition of Money


We are told, from our youth, that money is natural
Necessary, good, and of primary concern
But it only exists because humans won’t share
So all one can do is steadfastly earn
Indeed, without money all people would hoard
To be done with it all we all yearn

Perhaps there could instead be an alternative
Perhaps some new novel system
Perhaps it could be a complex ledger of sorts
The debts, the taxes – who will miss them?
It would limit the goods a person could acquire
And hoarding would perforce be stemmed

With these vast improvements, it seems possible
That economic sharing could work
Humans would see that hoarding just hurts
But success in the shadows does lurk
We could share commodities and services
There certainly would be some perks

We could do away with all forms of money
And radically streamline affairs
The economy robust, A.I. does the work
And instead of just putting on airs
We could make real change, a truly new world
With everyone having a share

These are all very nice suppositions to make
But in fact, it would fall quite apart
A new currency would arise, somehow
Some manipulation of the ledger for a start
And humans are not, simply not geared to act
In ways altogether quite smart

I do not know what transformation’s required
For anthropoid conduct to improve
I suppose it could be quite as simple as this:
Some of the glands you remove
And boost the IQ average up fifty points
And we might enter in some new groove

In the end, I’m afraid, my suggestions must
Be confined to future eras
The collective IQ seems only to go down
And we’re confronted daily with new terrors
It’s a nice dream to have, perhaps get there one day
But such blessings are not nigh for Terra

Wholeness in Mind


In any domain, the first thing to say
Is that it is whole in every way
The exceptions presented, by the true are resented
If the truth is to be thus in play

We find upon looking what we did not see
Requisites, indeed, for all that is free
When treating of mind, put not in a bind
All that there can or will be

Separation is false, it is illusion
Yet it seems all the world is in collusion
To splinter the world into a dark furled
Into the most awful delusion

Those of a whole are the brain, mind and spirit
Attuned to the harmonies – the way to hear it
And all the analysis just leads to paralysis
Yet the reputable do not fear it

Indeed it is so, one who’s separating
Is not fully engaged appreciating
All under the Sun, existence is One
Is what our awareness is stating

Atomic


Now, atoms are real we assuredly say
But perhaps not the main causal players
In any case they’re in a class, by the way
Of an onion peeled back a few layers

Indeed, atoms are in their own special class
If we consider that they are “real”
Doubtless they are, and indeed, they have mass
And the spotlight they rather steal

But what an ironical thing there to state!
Spotlights tend to show the way
But these little devils are too clever, mate
Keeping poor common sense there at bay

For you see the basic constituents of light
Also known formally as the photon
Themselves do not in this realm confer sight
Those electrons are put upon!

At atomic scales, well down below
Light cannot impinge and bounce back!
So what does it mean that we’ve come to know
Objects not even colored black!

So what we have here, if I may just state
Are objects that cannot be seen
We may say they’re real, a debate of late
But perhaps antisocial and mean!

Society and the System


Our society
We must recall
Is the product of cultural evolution
Civilization
Has always
Been unfair

It was built by the managers
For the managers

We were egalitarian for eons
But something happened
And we started farming

As soon as irrigation becomes necessary
You need some boss
To manage it

And here we have the birth of authority

After that the changes are cosmetic but radical
But the point to remember
Is that this process is much larger than any one person
It is larger than the will of the billionaire class
Human wishes and morals have nothing to do with it
And no one controls it

So our situation is that our system
Is systemically unfair
Everyone wants to blame everyone
But the real culprit is cultural evolution

As soon as a position of authority was created
It was all over
But certainly this doesn’t mean
We can’t do better
The question remains: Will we?

An Education


There are a few, yes some, it’s true
For whom schooling has worth
But most would like to bid adieu
To any school on Earth

The thing the system does, you see
Is teach from times of old
Not how to think, or see, or be
But just do what you’re told

Collective Soul


The world is one, a single soul
Joined into a seething whole
When times are right, that soul mellows
When times are great it simply glows
But in those periods of strife
That world soul can take a life

Every coin has two sides, yes?
One side works to give and bless
One side works to take away
Wellness and the light of day
When out of crisis, Earth gives grace
When in one, we see the coin’s sad face

And when ill befalls, what to do?
The Earth’s a varied, spicy stew
Many millions suffer strains
No one ought have in their brains
It’s a grave phenomenon
The sensitive, quite put upon

Those personal souls so fragile
Are in bright times the most agile
It is they who comprehend these lines
And see that life’s a field of mines
The rank injustice of their role
Is part and parcel of world-soul

For how could light forget the dark
And how could God forget His spark
These here do deign to forget not
They see it’s ripe, they see the rot
But we’re alive, the way to be
The world soul seeks to be free

It all begins within a belief.
Taught by the never ending competitive narrative.
Reinforced deliberately by educational deceit.
You must win your Darwinistic comparative.

This low level crude explanation.
Hailed as one giant step forward.
Is just another symptom.
When conciosnesses are left unexplored.

A narrowing of all potential.
Allows the mangagers to get you stood in line.
Fueled billionaires jet transcontinental.
While scientists get lost in time.

Where tangibility can rest only in physicality.
When constructed atoms need be newly discovered.
Why Newton needs a destructibility.
Collecting any truths we can recover.

It all begins within a belief.
That ones separation can be measured.
A successful chart to bring relief.
To it you must be tethered.

Soul Colors


Soul pigments
All poems
Fresh figments
Golden gloams

It has not
(Though this tricks)
Control got
Of its licks

So here be
A most dear
Way to free
The high gear

We must stick to
‘foresaid rules
The words flow through
Flexing tools

But are we
In design?
Not to be
I opine

There must needs
Be tender brain
For the seeds
Of work sane

Sane and sound
And creative
Gather round
Contemplative

Old Techniques, New Theories


We live in an age
In which academia and “progress”
Consist of and are defined by
A myriad of techniques

This technical smorgasbord
Represents a proliferation of habit
In which nothing really new
Is going on

And indeed
Nothing really new
Has been going on
For over a hundred years

That’s in terms of theory, of course
The other side of the coin:
New, innovative theories
And the exploration of new fundamentals

This has been left wanting
For, as I say, many decades
And then we get to the topic
Of originality

The aforementioned techniques
Are rote, technocratic and unoriginal
And they deplete the spirit of man
Originality and novelty would reinvigorate

Sometimes in literature we accept commentary
But most often we seek originality
So in life we seek novelty
And should in society as well

We are in a morass
A dismal, abysmal morass

A Collective of Individuals


We understand the concept of the individual
And of the collective just as well
But therein lies a confusion residual
Because it’s often difficult to tell
The answer’s not got through perspectives visual
But this confusion we must quell

In point of fact the two sides are rather like some nickel
Both belong and must be on that piece
Both are real paradigms, like a hammer and a sickle
Usually, collectives aren’t at peace
So here, indeed, we have some kind of pickle
But these silly fickle games we must just cease

The collective and the self, fundamental each
It needn’t be the other or the one
I daresay this truth is one to all souls teach
So we can unify under the sun
The context, the situation, fill up Nature’s breech
And one or t’other comes out of the gun

That is to say, collectives shine on one side of the dual
And individuals have a place there on the other
We just consider opposites as some peculiar rule
But I propose we make ourselves another
Not either-or, but both-and, should be the novel school
Reduce confusion well before we smother

Ship of Fools


It could well be
In this sad world
That people are missing the point
All of our talk
Is cheap as can be
And our civilization we anoint

Progress, growth
Space migration
It all stems from insecurity
Virtual reality
Immortality
Some kind of diseased futurity

These ideas are pathological
Symptoms of a disease
Grade-A, first class delusions
Why can’t we just surrender?
Abandon all desires
That prop up all of our illusions

We must be something else
We must be more, and better
Or we could just abandon these poor thoughts
Why can’t we find contentment
Perhaps even happiness
In this life, despite some of our lots

It is not possible?
Is it not preferable?
To live as man was meant to live?
Get off the ship of fools
That’s all it is, you see
And become Earth’s youngest relative

Getting ready for the month of May
weather is warming up and time to play

I stop and think.  What is important in this world?
Then time goes on and so much comes unfurled.

Not in flag way
that is very gay
but in a good way
for those that have a say
but I say neigh

Not for me but for someothers
some I consider brothers

Never going to be me
everyone be free

I just don't care
woke shit I don't see as fair

Rights are rights and everyone should have them
those that want to take them are fascist and at the bottom.

The Logic of the Gods


The logic of the gods is quite easily explored
And yet so seldom is it done
Some believe in something, others naught at all
Others even worship our dear Sun

But to drop the histrionics, and get more serious
It really boils downward to one point
Do you feel that we’re alone in this giant universe?
Or is perhaps this a more crowded joint?

If we’re not the only ones, then here enters the logic:
There have to be less and greater powers
Among those races who must not all be truly equal
Just like we have a big and little flower

Presumably then, there are many diverse species
Who are indeed more powerful than man
So we must therefore assume, in all the greatest faith
That there’s one being in the mighty span…

…Who happens to be the most almighty powerful
With others close in proximity
I certainly assume that such beings as described
Would occupy a high infinity

Or in parlance more specific, higher dimensionality
These beings must doubtless be impressive
And descending down the hierarchy, all the way to us
Is, needless to say, very regressive

The question one must ask, I’ll ask it just below:
Are these beings any different than a god?
Higher reality, inconceivable power
To answer in the negative is odd!

So to get back to the logic, as anyone might do
We have many higher beings
One that’s the most powerful, surrounded by others
A God and gods – now this is freeing!

I for one cannot escape the logic of these lines
My assumptions it seems are copacetic
The conclusions herein are unavoidable
And the global nihilism is pathetic
