”To All Those Dreaming Of A White Christmas ..
.. Be Careful What You Wish For.”

TOPIC: Terrorists Mindstate...

December 25th, 2006

North Korea’s defiance is blatant,
As it attempts to try the patience, of the United Nations ..
.. by meeting their final statements,
With a blind negation, some would find evasive.
Inside the vacant,
High containment, chambers of their Silo bases ..
.. lies a latent,
Wildly dangerous, warhead filled with nitric agents.
Primed and stationed,
Behind the tight embrasures, of this silent haven ..
.. Until a sirens brazen,
Tiresome wailing, interrupts the entire engagement!
The hired assailants,
Quite frustratingly, had not surmised the dangers ..
.. of their vile dictators,
Mindless nature, and self-righteous hatred.
When suddenly, the site awakens -
And the Missiles rising hastens,
.. Displaying sides emblazoned,
With North Korean flags on the vibrant casing.
Not highly favored,
By the neighboring, countries that lie adjacent ..
.. Kim Jong the Second,
Their highest patron, decided too much times been wasted.
Korea would strike the States with its missile ..
.. Killing hundreds of thousands,
And leaving New York looking like their own troubled surroundings.
A great mushroom cloud would rise up -
Filling the sky!
Whole entire cities were fried, in the blink of an eye.
The pure radiation,
Burning the flesh, of vermin and pests ..
.. American servicemen - Vets - were undeservedly next.
Innocent children were lost.
Those poor bastards were toast,
For the uprising ash and the smoke, that the disaster evoked.
Those ‘merely’ poisoned grasped to the hope, of what praying could do ..
Willing to chance a religion they never believed in,
If it could save them from doom.
But with the wicked face of the moon, came the coldest of times ..
.. and a Nuclear Winter emerged,
Where so many died.
With no hope for survival, the raging rays bore their flesh ..
.. Victims realized they were more of less, caught up in the jaws of death.
Good people had the skin STRIPPED from their bones in a tragic waste ..
.. before Nuclear Clouds reigned down patterned flakes of ashen-gray.
These were all that were left of the dead,
Save for distant memories.
These burnt embers, that settled over a city they’d never see.
Drifting,
Shifting,
Settling,
The crisp cinders waltzed the nights sky ..
.. over what America would later call “Ground One” -
But not at this precise time.
As one with the wind,
These special specks were all that was in sight ..
Falling like snowflakes,
Until a blanket of white, had vanquished the night.
And a pure carpet had covered the ground in those white wisps ..
.. I bet Bing Crosby never dreamt of seeing a White Christmas like this.

One countries Heroes, are anothers cold-hearted Killers.
The victims are often the innocents, who have had to witness the deaths of their loved ones through wars they don’t agree with.

Finding Pleasure In Pain

The worst thing in this world, next to anarchy, is government.
Henry Ward Beecher

Anger is a killing thing: It kills the man who angers, for each rage leaves him less than he had been before- it takes something from him.
Louis L'Amour

A man begins cutting his wisdom teeth the first time he bites off more than he can chew.
Herb Caen

Peace cannot be achieved through violence, it can only be attained through understanding.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Best of Both Worst Worlds

The worst thing in this world, next to anarchy, is government.
Henry Ward Beecher

Is it freedom of the press or freedom to oppress?
We're given multiple choices to fool us we have a freedom to a guess.
We depend on news anchors who only pretend to know
and they can't contend the flow of the current so we get send below.
The bar is set high but the trends are low,
so the gap is somewhere between head to toe,
and its being filled with tabloids and soundbites
that get on-air but never get off the ground right.
Broadcasters joke when they say "lets procede to a slow feed"
cause they shove it down your throat like roast beef at coast speed.
The upcoming election is a race for your seat
and Right vs.Wrong are neck and neck
but one's a giraffe with a closed lead.
Info is short for infomercial and knowledge is forbidden out of spite
in a nation of screens, everything gets screened & hidden out of sight.
If the media is a test on our culture then its scoring F's
the nation's glass is half empty
& most of it is from the GOP elephant in the room thats pouring sweat.
The left is ignoring the threat, unaware there's more to the debt
and they bit the hand that dealt its cards so its not winning anymore of the bet.
This generation is witnessing the consequences of incompetence
in a nation that's without borders yet the majority is on the fence.
War is nonsense and last week it concurred to me
that countries don't make nukes for their security
but instead for their insecurities. Its obscurity.
Congress is filled with rats trying to prey on birds
politicians steal bases cause they've done dirt & are afraid to stay on first.
They take us for a spin but never bring us back around the curb
its time they start getting off their high horses & come back down to earth.
Every leader today is a tiger on his toe trying to see his turn
if these deceitful liars put their feet to the fire only then they'll feel the burn.
But the real concern is this nation is beneath itself,
demeaning its people's health while leaching to keep its receding wealth.
In this age of unprecedented credit rate the stress is great
yet we wait and let every threat to penetrate.
The heroes that will set us straight from the line that seperates
will be the leaders who are willling to cross the head of state.
And the words that will set us loose will be the ones,
that's said with weight.
It's not time to medicate but meditate
cause a nation thats in the state of awaked has met its fate.
This nation defeated child labor, slavery and segregation
its a sleeping giant & these neocons can only test its patience.
Its future is high-tech, green techonlogy and peaceful resolution
it doesn't need a revolution to achieve its evolution.
This nation's mood is at fever pitch
all it needs now is good leadership.
America is the best of both worst worlds, the east and the west
its second to none, home to the least and the best.
A nation unbreakable, based on anarchy and government
holding it self together with the help from all of its elements.

The best thing in this world, is anarchy next to government.
