when right is wrong and freedom just another word abused




______..........-------::::::::::::::::rant*****


when right is wrong and freedom just another word abused
then it is time for another line against 
then there is ripe another line's defense
we won't give air to any fake pretense 
so listen and act:




Don't let them roll the wire 
we don't need this fence
Don't let them feed any dark desires
we don't need no bloody defense
Don't let them plant divisive fires
we don't need no electrical fence
no trenches no walls and no barbed wire
no false flag ops no cannon balls to burning tires

What we need is a warm strong hand shake
a home for the searching 
a shelter for the traveling
fair work and healthy eating
open minds in every meeting
with every form in creation
So don't let them roll the wire 
we don't need any fence




We need wild nature for one true embrace
so we don't need no fence's ways
no dugouts no arms and no declaration
instead of old school separation
we need some drastic incorporation
into that world outside of nations
become a small part of all creations

We reject all separating human invention
like a line drawn into the whole mix up
dividing some within the many
not asking much demanding plenty
giving orders and commands 
Do they think us fools on their errands?
Make them give up their demands
for a long and calm embrace
against their fear and the rat race
for our dear peaceful breathing space











So please get along and act now strong:

Give to all the separating ones 
a big smile and an open hand
a strong argument and an impossible confusion
Give them hope in peace instead of a bad land to want
with a hard alphabet and old Newspeak 's pollution
Dig out their landmines and cut the old wire
blow up the dugouts and that highty-mighty craving 
for that final control over some tight tight base
Cast that desire out into the open outer space
and let it become there a lonely desire only
let it be a lonely line only





Cause
We reject the whole invention of the possibility of separation
like a line cutting up the whole mix up
dividing some from the whole and the many
not asking much but demanding oh so plenty
all screaming orders and some odd command
we as their soldiers or as fools we were planned



So let us play a downbeat like a reggae jazz band
come let us watch and see their doubtful faces
make them accept their surrender's graces
Then let us share one long and sincere embrace
against their fear and their bad rat race
Let us share a long and a full embrace
for our dear peaceful breathing space
Let us share a long and full embrace
with so many very different kinds of being
intermingling at all times even when deeply disagreeing
with the inconceivable and unbelievable untamed pacifist nation
called positive imagination

This whole entry / dub-poem / rant took its starting point in the PICturePOem above that I titled "the heart of darkness [version ST]"  and which came into existence as a translation of a German version of it. The originals tries to criticize some recent separatist/nationalist propaganda in Southern Tirol, Northern Italy (see p.e. this article in the international version of Spiegel Online, or my German blog entry "Im Herzen der Finsternis"). 

Only via the translation into BIE (Broken International English) it dawned on me, that this is universal, not local.

refusal of corporate cooperation and the restauration of inner peace




You tell me to write
big city big crime big news big time
kind of best dwelling progressive aggressive 
wonder stories about
spiritual poverty rich bitch glories
right now right here and with a deal




You tell me that no one reads
simple nature silence sunshine waterdrop
kind of rainbow poems
in the cool and hip
concrete surroundings of your realness
but I must confess




if it is your hyposterical hipsterwittical zealness
that I should address
as your very personal ego caress
I cannot sleep that night before
the stage gig
I cannot move that sec before
the button hit
I cannot breathe that moment before
the tongue flick
so I am very ordinarily unconvincingly sorry
for my uncool behavior
and you may as well worry
about my career spice and curry
you may as well unfavour
me right now and here
cause I simply have to publicly adress ad confess




positive vibrations which let me words caress
are made of thank full bless
without egostress
but much more and less
simple love and affection
for this whole interrelational active fantastic cosmic wonder of life
for this second
and chance
thank you
and bless

Decadentist reload 2012


Shortly before the end an overripe fruit unleashed a captivating smell that was only excelled by the chant of the dying swan on a golden lake at sunset. A zealous decadent of the 2012 movement which had been known as hyperactive Y2K conspiracy blogger during the nineties and zeroes had scribbled EndZeit in an armed ghetto style onto the face of Monalisa and became the new internet-video-hype. Somewhere on a remote mountain top a silhuette seems to be in some sort of a rant-chant-dance in the morning light of a winter morning


To oh one two
To oh! one two
To oh! one two
and everyone is waiting for the three
Calamity finality
a count up blow
to oh one two
to oh! one two
to oh one two
and everyone is praying on their knees
paying little big time end time fees
Calamity finality
totality of bancorrupcy
yet another exploitation of our fears
from heart beats' race to flushy tears
a blow up count
to oh one two
to oh! one two
to oh one two
why everyone is buying all those f lying ones
like that returning flying flu from outside to you
and the needle against it
or both fever and folly in the meat on your plague
and a tighter controll at animal farm
oh recycled tales of instability and emergency
serving rules of oppression
and the repeating of the echo of the end of the worlds
plus another savior to ease transition
to oh one two
to oh! one two
to oh one two
So let me ask you one more time
why is everyone here buying all those f lying ones
instead of beaming with the joyful ones
to oh one two
to oh! one two
to oh one two

[this numerology hidden deep inside mumblology
sends your favorite transaction into space and action
sending out:
money, hopes and beliefs
ethic griefs and the human right for optimism
into various black holes of annihilation
coming in and receiving:
yet another kick for your fear
yet another squeeze for your tear
one more dose of mental slavery
cancel transaction:
time to breath and smile and glow
time for inside outside peace to slow
the quickbeat clickspeed of our fear
and the business in get out of it]

Passing to the 12









The times of sun turn longer on one
half of the earth 
but shorter 
on the other



There is no way to tell up
and down in this turning and spinning
Ebb flood and flow follow
the circling pale’s narration
some of earth's heavy tremblings 
and the winds' fiercest persuasions
 











Bluewhite light's living grace
floating soft in wide and open
endless space 
blessed by a light and its attraction




Comes a year anew
mark of human view
the gaze turned from stars’ wide open
                                     endless daze above
to the tick tack tock of the pressure clock
right on the low pulse of rigid counting
the change into a new number
of exaggerated overvaluation
Offering a change from death to life anew
time to reflect on the self and the whole
over fireworks and celebrations
incantations


Overhead galactic bends
yawn



Underfeet the earth crusts
in silence
all vibes in-between
blessings of being
























In other words: Happy New Year, concentration, unconditional love, many smiles and all the best for twothousandandtwelve!

Hacktivism







[after reading Jillian C. York's Opinion "Hacktivism for Syria" and "Syria's electronic army" on the English Aljazeera web page]




"As living beings spending that much time on the line and entangled in the web, 
how could we love and live without taking protest with us?"
myself on fb





And then you realize
you are not alone
but with the many
who as you
far in your room
in front of blue-screens
despair
are not alone
cause those anonymous
have typed
your mind and heart
You catch yourself reading 
half open-mouthed full





"To the Syrian people: The world stands with you against the brutal regime of Bashar al-Assad. Know that time and history are on your side - tyrants use violence because they have nothing else, and the more violent they are, the more fragile they become. We salute your determination to be non-violent in the face of the regime's brutality, and admire your willingness to pursue justice, not mere revenge. All tyrants will fall, and thanks to your bravery Bashar Al-Assad is next.


To the Syrian military: You are responsible for protecting the Syrian people, and anyone who orders you to kill women, children, and the elderly deserves to be tried for treason. No outside enemy could do as much damage to Syria as Bashar Al-Assad has done. Defend your country - rise up against the regime! - Anonymous." [video]



And you watch and
you read a second
time cause you can't
believe
that your thoughts
I salute your determination to be non-violent
have found ways
into the opening
All tirants will fall
and reflect
back to yourself
from your far close screen
and suddenly you feel Yes! 
everything's gonna be alright
have no more doubt

Mare e monti: Between Mühltal & Istanbul













In the meantime the dinosaur has found the wide awoken eye of the narrator and tries to hunt it down.



Finally, as we start watching, he traps it on the seaside. The mountainous beach turns red.



Side by side they weep until darkness collapses around the last real blink of sunlight.... ight... ght... t... .





Under bridges over calmed waters
between continents and seaways



we eat the fruits of the wet
and yes we are
thankful greatful
and soon also bellyful


A blessing it is to be here
A blessing it is to fly here
A great lesson it is to be



The sun agrees and sends some
beams and wind with it
illuminating the house of death
showing peace and patience



Every little thing is changing
and yes we are with it
in it
for and in
so many dimensions



ever changing ever grinning ever spinning
in this wheel of foreign fortunes



wheeling with the gulls
in between somewhere nowhere everywhere
always deciding if the sun should rise
or if the clouds in tides
should crisscross the sky



with bridges and calmed waters
underneath



& when imagination strands
in a shipwreck













without island



it is seaweed
or a fleeting sandbank
that will do
water games
write funny names
into currents
and water jets













every drop
rhythm
information
and {the possibility of} a
rainbow
...

Even the smallest
and most meaningless
matter
is light



image and part of the whole
written down



to go up

Freedom of Speech




Tomorrow I will read/perform in Munich with wonderful writers and artists: freisprechanlage. staging opinion (as already commented extensively on my German blog). Our common topic is freedom of speech. Obviously one can always say too much and do too little for it. That is why only some lines will follow. And the invitation to check it out!




To speak or not to speak that is the bullet
to raise your hand in proprotest
to raise your voice
your hearts
and souls
is that
free
dom
??
!
.
.
...
or do
you need
quite some
more reflection
research and insight
some cover-up perfection
instead of direct emotions
manipulated by headlines and pictures
by politricks and propaganda strictures
without counter arguments nor space to think?

to think out and speak up - that is the sensible way


Have a most wonderful day and surf!

Come and have a good different start into your weekend: Friday 13th May 20h Ligsalzstr. 13 Munich Westend.





SUN IS SHUT
O U T
OF MY ROOM
PLEASE WEAR
LUCIDITY 



...
Sun comes up from the depth of a dark eye
Universes suddenly set alight and shining bright
Sharing a circle and a laugh we are sitting here and now
dining on a spoon of rise and a cup of quite clouded water
underneath the starry blinking of another night outside alright
Night becomes a counter day cuddling us into silent peacefulness
