More on Human ABILITY to REASON, Human RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 159

Most likely to be published later this spring/summer of 2020, my 11th book entitled appropriately; More Proems & Poems on the Peculiar Human ABILITY to REASON, Singular Human RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included upon further editing, and front cover a slightly modified yet appropriate version of the previous....


PROEM & POEM No. 159 - Jevons’ Laws of Thought


      The laws of thought are natural laws with which we have no power to interfere, and which are of course not to be in any way confused with the artificial laws of a country, which are invented by men and can be altered by them.

      William Stanley Jevons (1835-1882)

      As nonexistent the mortal ability to literally interfere with others’ thoughts in some divine fashion, nonexistent as well the justification, ethic and right to attempt interferences with others’ thoughts by manipulatively covert influences. Obviously by now, the mere hope or desire to interfere by such conniving ways roots deeply in nothing other than covetousness. If not covetousness, then why manipulatively covert influences over informatively overt influences unless coveting others’ propensities naturally unhindered to pursue, to possess, to prefer, to behave, to believe, as well simply to be and to brood or ponder studiously, diligently, purposefully, casually, randomly, whimsically, restfully, dreamily, etc.

      As such attempts go; some succeed while some of course fail, therefore often the political majority of manipulatively convinced consenters versus individual minority of inquisitively unconvinced dissenters. So it is with government’s attempts to interfere with others’ thoughts by use of various methods, political rhetoric, crony media, and mainly by use of the more cleverly successful public education. By forcefully controlling the dissemination of information hence education, particularly history as politically revised, the interference’s potency then efficiency increases and intensifies exponentially upon each passing generation. Soon the child, parent, grandparent and beyond have received the same education and thereof same revision, same exaggeration, same distortion, same corruption, same deception thus an earlier verse and latter reiteration rightly apply.

Told once, a lie, twice, a rumor
Thrice, the gospel peculiar

Speak a lie thrice
And it ceases to be
Speak the truth once
And it ceases to be

      So it is the repetition of propaganda; the rote by voiced citations from sore’d throat per more promulgations thusly rhymed, trustfully indwelt, rutted well in dulled minds as so coveted and quelled by others’ design and deviance. 

---

By swift dissension upon two captives' condition, struck
Once, consciousness sunk, twice, vice per captors drunk
Thrice more, while three swore, toward Hells' dominion
Ego prancing in promenade Gehenna's throng of minions

---

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
