HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 59

Most likely to be published 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. 59 - Individualism versus Socialism

Individualism is politically abrogated, literally obliterated by Socialism, implemented by one or more forms of collectivism known as Communism, Fascism, Cronyism (pre-Fascism) or Americanism (Cronyism with a bit of Communism, see No. 58). It logically follows, Socialism requires a politically, economically controlled society from the top down and/or bottom up, that is to say, government completely owning or regulating, managing or taxing (forcefully confiscating) the land thus natural resource, as well distribution thus allocation, and production thus consumption, consequently nonexistent the individual sovereignty over his/her property and possession, liberty and privacy, as well labor, self-determination therefore his/her life. It is nothing less than blatant and arrant the disrespect and the disregard of the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

Socialism is nothing more than actual and/or metaphorical tossed bread, to appease and satiate the Romanesque mob in exchange for political, economic power, hence the foregoing of Individualism in favor of Communism, Fascism, Cronyism (pre-Fascism) or Americanism (mostly Cronyism with a bit of Communism). In brief, Socialism can only be underwritten by these aforementioned collectivistic therefore anti-individualistic Isms. It is important to note, whether tyrannically dictated by a few or democratically mandated by the many, force is the common ill means, the logical dynamic and ethical dilemma remaining the same.

America! Should God bless thee and thy covetousness
(Right to have by presuming your due lustfully endless)
From citing to be free, to rioting for things free, the fling
To flirt, hamstringing empirics’ logic regardless the swing

HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 58

PROEM & POEM No. 58 - Individualism versus Cronyism or Americanism

Individualism is politically abrogated, literally obliterated by the form of collectivism known as Cronyism, for the latter is a politically, economically controlled society from the top down, that is to say, government from partly then incrementally digressing to largely regulating and taxing (forcefully confiscating) the land thus natural resource, as well distribution thus allocation, and production thus consumption, consequently nonexistent the individual sovereignty over his/her property and possession, liberty and privacy, as well labor, self-determination therefore his/her life. It is nothing less than blatant and arrant the disrespect and the disregard of the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

To notice a similarity to Fascism is to rightly compare, for it is Cronyism’s unavoidable future. Equally, both politicians and people initiate, perpetuate then accelerate the digression, tolerating or allowing, then scheming and supporting covetousness as law and policy.

Americanism (this writer/poet’s choice of word) is largely bipartisan Cronyism, alternatively pre-Fascism, blended with a measure of Communism for selected Socialistic programs (see No. 59). By reflecting on Communism’s bottom-up and Fascism/Cronyism’s top-down methodologies, examples of the two would be quite observable to any mind uncluttered by propaganda (i.e. government funded education).

For blood spilling `neath flag unfurling in every breeze
Flowing since founding, extolling hence compounding
Anthems hymning, spinning the half-truths half-telling

PROEM & POEM No. 57 - Individualism versus Fascism

Individualism is politically abrogated, literally obliterated by the form of collectivism known as Fascism, for the latter is a politically, economically controlled society from the top down, that is to say, government completely regulating and taxing (forcefully confiscating) the land thus natural resource, as well distribution thus allocation, and production thus consumption, consequently nonexistent the individual sovereignty over his/her property and possession, liberty and privacy, as well labor, self-determination therefore his/her life.

PROEM & POEM No. 56 - Individualism versus Communism

Individualism is politically abrogated, literally obliterated by the form of collectivism known as Communism, for the latter is a politically, economically controlled society from the bottom up, that is to say, government completely owning and forcefully managing the land thus natural resource, as well distribution thus allocation, and production thus consumption, consequently nonexistent the individual sovereignty over his/her property and possession, liberty and privacy, as well labor, self-determination therefore his/her life. It is nothing less than blatant and arrant the disrespect and the disregard of the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 55

PROEM & POEM No. 55 - Individual versus Collectivism / Reprise

Collectivism presumes to manage others by assuming the human instinct as predominate, decreeing and despotizing by manipulative subsidization of human emotion and educative mitigation of human reason, illogically moralizing community over individuality then unethically memorializing polity over citizenry. It is nothing less than blatant and arrant the disrespect and the disregard of the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

Individualism presumes not to manage others by assuming the human instinct as predominate, despising as dehumanizing the manipulative subsidization of human emotion and educative mitigation of human reason, logically moralizing individuality over community then ethically memorializing citizenry over polity. It is nothing less than empirically insistent and rationally persistent the respect and the regard for the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

Gang-raping Individualism by all other pernicious Isms
Duplicitous schisms oft’ among them per covetous egoisms

HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 54

PROEM & POEM No. 54 - Individual versus Collectivism

Individualism is logically simple per the constant respect and consistent regard for the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent; an ethically immutable prerequisite to all matters mutual hence collective too.

Collectivism is arbitrarily complex per the constant disrespect and consistent disregard for the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent; an unethically indispensable priority over all matters mutual, collective too, hence individual always.

To choose or refuse, to consent or not (so useless to defuse)

Often excused, or propagandized to bemuse for some ruse

Still yet desired o’er any love, passion, romance and pleasure

Perchance all treasures too, and most euphoric of ventures

HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 53

PROEM & POEM No. 53 - To Emote is Common and Constant / 5th Reprise

The arrogance (per No. 52) ignores the obvious complexity per unavoidable and rightful individuality, for not all are joyful with equal intensity per the same cause of the same magnitude, while some may even respond with boredom, agitation as well anger. The unrelentingly trend to categorize by political polls and academic statistics continue to encourage the presumptuously empowered, always with unintended consequences per restless or violent blowback thus unsustainable societies and economies. Similarly unrelenting yet ignored are the unethical dilemmas by such human-herd views thus policies, cattle-driving individuals with laws and regulations like stock prods, temptingly swaying individuals with subsidies, grants and cheap loans like scattered hay and salt blocks.

Yet where are the outcries against this inhumane governance. Instead, popular are the cries, shouts, demonstrations and riots for more, perversely codependent upon the political sadism and social masochism wildly perceived as mutually accommodating, flowing from a psychosis empirical, economical hence ethical, rooted ultimately and quite darkly in covetousness. It is the kind of lusted arrangement that can only begin and end by depravity of the mind, perhaps soul too, viciously manifested by feral disrespect and brutal disregard of the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 52

PROEM & POEM No. 52 - To Emote is Common and Constant / 4th Reprise

Love, joy, surprise, anger, sadness, fear (a short and obviously debatable list), and of course other emotive responses or effects, often have seemingly common causes. However, mistakenly considered as commonly caused by academic categorizations of the same, often with convenient broad strokes for preferred theories and promulgated narratives.

It is one matter to study in this way for clues and hints for professional counsel, treatment upon diagnosis, or merely private, personal assistance of a friend or relative, as well casual chitchat at bars or cocktail parties, yet to be understood, all within unanimously agreeable contexts. It is quite another matter to study in this way with such rigor and rigidity for conjured propositions and perceived formulas, so to propagandize in history classes while socially engineering thus politically managing, manipulating even coercing mass populations, of course, without unanimously agreeable contexts.

Ultimately as well initially in this way as societies and governments continue, digressively intrusive, oppressive, destructive, categorically inhumane from first conception of it and decision for it, commonly disrespected and disregarded are the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

For each form of presumption adverse to the only right sacred
Isolated far above superfluous rights rooted in covetousness
Conjured rights suited for all (save one) Isms’ imperiousness

HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 51

PROEM & POEM No. 51 - To Emote is Common and Constant / 3rd Reprise

The complexity is inestimable enough when observing and pondering individual actions per instinctive and reasonable dynamics ever-present, more so when including the emotive dynamic also ever-present. So it should be expected the ever-changing individual preferences as well necessities (categorically preferences of higher priority) per spaces along timelines. To state differently, individual preferences per an individual occupying a point in space (x1,y1,z1) and point in time (t1) versus the same or another point in space (x2,y2,z2) and subsequent point in time (t2).

Every individual is in constant multitasking mode if you will, reasonably, instinctively and emotively, thereupon analyzing, prioritizing, choosing, that is to say, uniquely consenting or not consenting. It is only by inhumane presumption one can respect and regard their own capability to reason, their own prerogative to consent or not consent, as superior to others. The resulting action is coercion, nothing less than egregious imposition, intervention or prevention of liberty, flagitious destruction of property and/or monstrous termination of life.

Arguably, it is suffice to simply mark such contemptuous force as the disrespect and disregard of others’ Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 50

PROEM & POEM No. 50 - To Emote is Common and Constant / 2nd Reprise

What elitist person or group can accurately as well ethically presume to be so divinely endowed while humanly limited, to manage and manipulate another person’s or another group’s individual actions expressed thus the latter’s individual consent decided upon individual reasoning deliberated amid individual emotion spurred and individual instinct stirred. Are not these elitists subject to the same human equation, that is, their individual actions similarly expressed thus the former’s individual consent similarly decided upon individual reasoning similarly deliberated amid individual emotion similarly spurred and individual instinct similarly stirred.

However obvious, it should be duly noted. Gravely lacking omnipresence, omniscience hence omnipotence, humanity operates in time, along inescapable timelines, therefore limited in movement, knowledge as well ability/power, consequently the constant propensity for error and excess. Concisely, if not infinite, then quite finite are all individuals, including all self-acclaimed elites of various sorts. Yet to complicate further, all are burdened and simultaneously blessed with human instinct, human emotion and the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

Forlorn inwardly, although swilling outwardly, excessively
Errantly hence monstrously, ah societies’ odes perversely
Per illogic upon hypotheses, fitly, egotistic preferences
Covetously driven as the given, arrogating for conveniences

HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 49

PROEM & POEM No. 49 - To Emote is Common and Constant / 1st Reprise

The emphasis of course is human reasoning, always the dominant dynamic over instinct as well emotion. However, it is quite true, not every individual exercises the dominant dynamic consistently, whether by choosing to give into their emotion with beneficial or detrimental outcomes, instinct too, or simply unwilling to choose otherwise. A person appearing to unable to choose contrary to emotion or instinct, is merely one unwilling to do so due to behavioral patterns long established per initially proactive determination, but patterns always susceptible even vulnerable to a single choice to alter them.

The point is, an individual’s humanity is not defined by emotion or instinct, characteristics shared in part or whole among other species, rather by the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent. It is by this ability and right, individuals reason and choose to be loving, happy, even sad and mournful, and by such choices magnify these great expressions far beyond other species, exemplified in humanity’s music, art, literature, poetry and more.

HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 48

PROEM & POEM No. 48 - To Emote is Common and Constant

What should be obvious as explained previously; to reason is human, to consent is unalienable, additionally and simultaneously, to emote is common and constant. Ever present, engaged even expressed are reason, instinct and emotion, of course in comparatively various as well fluctuating magnitudes. While observers may judge an individual’s behavior, activity or particular action as reasonable, instinctive or emotional, never disposed nor disengaged are the three.

A person appearing level-headed, stoic or logical is nonetheless emotional, possessing and engaging the ability to emote of some magnitude. Likewise, a person appearing reactionary or impulsive, hysterical or sentimental, is nonetheless reasonable, possessing and engaging the ability to reason of some magnitude. Emotion as well instinct are dynamics in constant play, either dominant or submissive upon each passing moment, to the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 47

PROEM & POEM No. 47 - Conjured Lists / 3rd Reprise

It is a grave mistake to consider the concise lists of rights by John Locke, Thomas Jefferson, and others, as something orthodox. By this view, there is tendency to revere them as a solution to an expansive government perpetuated by covetous people brokering with self-serving politicians.

Upon the very first formation of rights plural, that is, the listing of rights by two, three, four or more, the inherent illogic was as deceivingly present and detrimentally potent as it was in 1948 when conjured United Nations’ 30 articles of human rights that included the fantastically nebulous right to leisure. Frankly, the articles were presumptuously esteemed as universal, yet the world of 2.5 billion individuals were not universally consulted for the draft or declaration. The matter of rights plural is ambiguous as well erroneous whether it is three or thirty, furthering misdirection even peregrination, lacking certainty thus conclusion, hence the continual debate, the festering unrest and the inevitable violence.

In all the efforts to establish something nobly moral in the name of human rights, the outcome cannot be anything more but the disrespect and disregard of the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 46

PROEM & POEM No. 46 - Force Proactive versus Force Reactive / 3rd Reprise

Forces proactive thus organized and always violent, are cut from the same cloth, whether led by monarchs and courts, presidents and congresses, prime ministers and parliaments, as well generals, dictators, warlords, mafia bosses, gang leaders. Their flags, banners and colors, hoisted up poles, hung down balconies, stamped on helmets, sewn to uniforms and leather jackets, tattooed into skin, banded around arms and foreheads, tied around necks, none alter the vicious nature of force proactive.

No amount of blood spilled in the name of causes, no degree of honor bestowed to the fallen and wounded, no severity of injustice perceived by politicians or people, can justify force proactive whether executed on foreign or domestic soil in forms of government’s war, policy, law, currency, tax, fee, fine, subsidy, grant, education, service, tariff, embargo/ban and more. In these cases, it is impossible to not transgress at least one, often more, therefore the disrespect and disregard of the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.
