MY ALLEGIANCE - The Abandoned Project / Canto VI

Most likely to be published sometime in latter 2017 or early 2018, my 10th book currently entitled; 100 Proems & Poems on the HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included (in the bonus section) upon further editing, and front cover below merely a working version....


CANTO VI - The Barmecidal Aegis


The truth is (see previous poem/quotes) that in wishing to
hurt others, we only hurt ourselves, not only because the
retaliation to these prohibitions is so easy to devise that
other nations do not fail to think of it in their turn, but also
because we deprive our own nation of the incalcul-able
advantages of a free commerce.

Anne-Robert-Jacques Turgot (statesman, 1727-1781)
The Turgot Collection (book)


Retaliatory tit for tat, after introductory shit or scat
To take off top the cream, or as snakes the schemes
Skulking in grass and brakes (fuck the serpentine)
Protectionism's false security however hidden rift
Reciprocation's mistaken parity thence nearing cliff
Such barmecidal aegis per non-empirical analysis
The causality dismissed as the simplicity remiss
Ah the imminent paralysis upon industries' limbs
Vulnerable skin festering, cyclical boils manifesting
Persistent hands and inventive plans preempted
Though exempted the matters of centralist hatters
Bathing fat in lather, per scathing rants by writers
Wrapped and metered by spinners and miters
Clouding cleverly the promulgated transparency
While dots disconnect, then reconnect, to redirect
From vile effects, so to swap the truth for agitprop
Veiling broken props, naming busts as liberty's rot
And booms as plots fraught with paternal polity
The latter, the pundit's misconceived successes
While the former, the people's interleaved messes
And few confess, none recess, yet insisting further
Concurring moreover for more market tethers
Fluffing feathers of public nests, so knowing best
On behalf of the rest, resisting the logical contest

CANTO V - Germ of Hatred and War


That this system (see previous poem/quotes) results only
in setting all branches of commerce as enemies against
one another, in nourishing among nations a germ of
hatred and of war...

Anne-Robert-Jacques Turgot (statesman, 1727-1781)
The Turgot Collection (book)


Video and audio as per bite then babble
Regurgitation by the inconsistent samples
Arbitrary ramble for convenient scandal
By the federalist and centralist conjoined
Hence whoring within the corporatist's loins
All swaddling in blood-spangled banners
Coveting then suckling in various manners
Of individual glamor by private labor
(Skill along hammer, corn among coins
Human actions enjoin the mortal threads
Ah, sweat on forehead, callous on hands
No malice, instead, plow in vested land)
Rather, laws are read, as few sages expected
Yet the dread unavoidable, dead inevitable
“O say”, the claimers, defamers, emulators
Hence simulators of manufactured threats
For factories of debt, to array the brakes
Withal minion drakes, to take and to carry
By ferry so to tarry, the youth thus honed
As clones devoted and humans demoted
From souls thrown in units by death-row
Anon strewn as pillars cold in ruins of old
Broken collaterally as tokens, unilaterally
Per unspoken reasons smoked, seasoned
Fitly proclaimed o'er patriotic flames
Gamed then maimed, hence later famed
The sons and daughters as fallen heroes
Yet earlier as fodder amid war's sorrows
(While alma maters overflowed bacchanal)
Shit! two incalculable goddamn costs
Twain streams lost, one mortally eternal
Whilst another as materially temporal
Regrettably, the latter unrecoverable
Lamentably, the former unforgivable
O fuck the curse of fettered commerce
Thus reverse by emancipation's converse
To free the market is to free the people

Alas peace's potential!
¡Ay paz potencialmente!

…of which even the lightest effects are a thousand times more
costly to the people, more destructive of wealth, population
and happiness, than all those paltry mercantile profits which
people fancy they will ensure benefit the nations which allow
themselves to be misled.

Anne-Robert-Jacques Turgot (statesman, 1727-1781)

HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 35

Most likely to be published sometime in latter 2017 or early 2018, my 10th book currently entitled; 100 Proems & Poems on the HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included upon further editing, and front cover below merely a working version....


PROEM & POEM No. 35 - Nature Amoral


      Firstly, is Nature cruel if one thirsts or starves in a desert or forest? Conversely, is Nature charitable if one drinks from a stream found, or feasts upon game hunted or berries/nuts gathered? Is Nature blessing or cursing if one is warmed by the tropic sun or chilled by the arctic wind? Comparatively, is Nature cursing or blessing if one is cooked by the Mississippi delta heat or cooled by the Massachusetts cape breeze?

      Secondly, is Nature duly obligated thus fair or unfair if one strengthens then lives versus suffers then dies? Is Nature so empowered to endow one with Rights; right to food, right to clothing, right to shelter thus right to live? Or is Nature simply what it is as one makes the best of it by human labor? 

      Thirdly, is Nature nothing more than neutral or amoral in which one exists yet well equipped with the Particular Human Ability to Reason for sustenance, maintenance even furtherance, inseparably expressed by the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent for communication, cohabitation even cooperation?

---

He thirsts, she starves, he carves verses by pen as sword
She scrawls curses on marked wall of dark hall to record
His verses fought perverse, her curses sought to re-hearse
Yet neither consents till either relents lest hubris amerces

Slanderers guilty of their slander

First, allow me to say I've been off Facebook for 3 months and I remain quite informed if not more so, and far less annoyed by social, political frivolity and intellectual, academic puerility. With that said... I have yet meant a person incline to slander others as Fascist to properly define the word. Again, I have yet meant a person incline to slander others as Socialist, Communist, Nationalist, Tyrannical or Militarist as well Racist, to properly define those words. Upon this widespread and quite violent outbreak of ignorance, slanderers are often guilty of their respective slander.

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.

MY ALLEGIANCE - The Abandoned Project / Canto IV

Most likely to be published sometime in latter 2017 or early 2018, my 10th book currently entitled; 100 Proems & Poems on the HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included (in the bonus section) upon further editing, and front cover below merely a working version....


CANTO IV - Sophisms for Paltry Profits


Whatever sophisms are collected by the self-interest of a few
merchants, the truth is that all branches of commerce ought
to be free, equally free, and entirely free...

Anne-Robert-Jacques Turgot (statesman, 1727-1781)
The Turgot Collection (book)


Paltry profits as per the promiscuous pensions
By potent prohibitions and political precepts
Whilst the citizenry accept unknowingly
 Again, kept by coercive inculcation usually
Prepencely stepped on, intensely trampled upon
Rung by rung, brick per brick, thus thin to thick
Moderately, later excessively, then absolutely
Monopolies for commodities or industries
Ergo goods or labor, schemes thence savored
Ah the fiends against the precedences of nature
By the haughty statures, lusting their statues
Stroking their architectures of lifted fixtures
As well pilfered mixtures, until the ejaculations
Bubbles to busts, the stumble from lofty cusp
Anon the subtle struggles thereon the final thrust
Means thus potent as ends latent and patent
By institutions divine or effectively aligned
To the praxeology oft scorned as myth or yarn


That the system of some modern politicians who fancy that they
encourage national commerce by prohibiting the importation of
foreign merchandise is plain delusion...

MY ALLEGIANCE - The Abandoned Project / Canto III

Most likely to be published sometime in latter 2017 or early 2018, my 10th book currently entitled; 100 Proems & Poems on the HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included (in the bonus section) upon further editing, and front cover below merely a working version....


CANTO III - Cowáump, Nowáump


Cowáump? (Have you enough food? - Narrogánset). Nowáump
(I have enough - Narrogánset)… It is a strange truth, that a man
shall generally finde more free entertainment and refreshing
amongst these Barbarians, than amongst thousands that call
themselves Christians.

Roger Williams (theologian/Rhode Island founder, 1603-1683)
A Key Into the Language of America (book, 1643)


Ah, doctrinally believe
To religiously profess

Empirically cleave
To consistently assess

Truth by faith
Rectitude oft bestows

Fact unscathed
Certitude evenly flows

From antiquity's cave
To modernity's grave

So knaves in naves
Or duplicities waived

Such the arbitrary mazes
Inked paper in cases

Or face honesty's graces
Mid societies' motley paces

Cowáump, she befriends
Have enough, once again

Nowáump, he portends
It is enough, at eve's end

Pots stirred by words
Later hustled as herds

The masses concurred
Hence laments unheard


If the Wunnaumwáyean (Englishman) speake true, if hee meane
truly, then shall I goe to my grave in peace, and hope that English
and my posteritie shall live in love and peace together.

Canounicus (Narrogánset sachim, 1565-1647)
As recorded by Roger Williams
in A Key Into the Language of America (book, 1643).


Extended hands
With seed and corn

Then defended lands
On steeds with firstborns

Yet from it banned
Deeds sundered and torn

Ah the scorn grand
By misdeed, like thorns

Within reminiscing
Of affable beginning

And curious perusing
Then devious pursuing

Come the disparity
Mid either extremity

Amity or enmity
Charity or cupidity

Willful cordiality
Or legal criminality

Divers selections
Now, either election

Toxic promotions
Or logic's locution

Yet in rare situations
Williams' predilection


Obliged o'er ledge and rim, cozened and misled
Ridden, bled, and dead as per imperious pleasure
By odious measures upon indigenous treasures
The requisite trinity; Life, Liberty, and Property

Roger Williams (theologian/Rhode Island founder, 1603-1683)
A Key Into the Language of America (book, 1643)

CANTO II - Thy Birth and Blood


Boast not proud English, of thy birth & blood,
Thy brother Indian is by birth as Good.
Of one blood God made Him, and Thee & All,
As wise, as faire, as strong, as personall. (cont.)

Roger Williams (theologian/Rhode Island founder, 1603-1683)
A Key Into the Language of America (book, 1643)


Harrowing the land by blood of man, by fleshing
Meshing, and caching `tween furrows by sorrow
Bows bent in wet woods, guns hot if others could
To take by rot both sides of brakes and streams
Hence divinely making sovereign as pious fiends
Continuous schemes faking the reordered events
Hoarding extents, gulfs to prairies, bluffs to seas
Bulwark the thieves save those morally freed
Per their political intrigue or religious mystique
Later, by legislative technique thus legal decree
Grander the conceit, more martyrs by the deceit
Driven by foot, hoof, or wheel on ribbon of steel
Integrity tossed per deal, verity lost by each seal
Less real by lesser cloth and meal than pledged
Fixed then wedged by musket, gauntlet, and pen
Obliged o'er ledge and rim, cozened and misled
Ridden, bled, and dead as per imperious pleasure
By odious measures upon indigenous treasures
The requisite trinity; Life, Liberty, and Property


By nature wrath’s his portion, thine no more
Till Grace his soule and thinein Christ restore,
Make sure thy second birth, else thou shalt see,
Heaven ope to Indians wild, but shut to thee.

CANTO I - Vainglorious Erections


Yet how do all pretend a holy war? He that kills,
and he that's killed, they both cry out: “It is for God,
and for their conscience.”

Roger Williams (theologian/Rhode Island founder, 1603-1683)
The Bloudy Tenent of Persecution for Cause of Conscience (book, 1644)


(chorus)
O `tis for God and his divine institutions
His sacred and numinous selections
As well the mortal desultory interpretations

O `tis for Man and his designed pretensions
His flagrant and vainglorious erections
As well the arbitrary ejaculations

(verse 1)
Ah, the promulgated gracious stands
Then presupposed officious demands
By sublime throes of directions
(Aligned to rows of mob-rule elections)

Ah, the pop-culture mod-priests
Spewing their quips bequeathed
As well the lovely vultures as princes
Skewing with glib lips and fibs sheathed

(bridge 1)
`Tis for all brigadiers' banners unfurl
Some do the undoing as death-bags uncurl
By each gunned down, every ebon pouch fills
As polity's poles arouse, fixed and still
So flags seduce more, o'er lusty domes
While warm blood ooze upon dusty loam
(return to chorus)

(verse 2)
Enthused from their homes
Thrown into imperial roams and ruses
Honed and lunged by military abuses
To expunge, diffuse, or excuse...

The propagandized threats
Underwritten by fiat and perpetual debt
While smitten freemen sweat and fret
As bondmen, beset by parliamentary net

(bridge 2)
Patriotism oft rides oddly high
On either side of random battle lines
Each pledge, anthem, prayer, hymn, and sigh
All in reply, hoping for an illusory victory
In grit and shit, coping the fuckin' misery
As elites sit solvent on stolen salary
(return to chorus)
