Ffolkes,
“What I am is what I am.
Are you what you are, or what?”
~~ Edie Brickell & the New Bohemians ~~
Black Pepper Tree….
Hajime…. I have managed to put together a Pearl for today; what I didn’t manage is to find any particularly creative energy within myself to write anything more complicated than a short intro paragraph for the music. The rest is, as they say so often in Silicon Valley, what you get. Suffused, as I am, with the angst so carefully built up over the past few days of watching the US government shake itself to pieces, I find it difficult to find the words to express the degree of horror implied by the massive display of duplicity, ignorance, bigotry, and, well, stupidity we have witnessed, as the Trumpette goes about his business, feeding into the ignorance of his ‘fans’, and rewarding all the assholes who helped him get into this mess….
Any further comments on that would easily fall into ranting mode; I’ll cease and desist now, rather than try to regain control later. The few words I’ve already written today came close enough to cover that, and will sit more comfortably in the psyche of the Gentle Reader if not augmented by further displays of angst. Besides, I’m really NOT in the mood to rant; I feel too good to let it wreck what’s left of the day. Instead, I’m going to go all executive, and cut this off while still in its prime, in favor of just getting on with what I’ve got. For y’all, that’s probably a bonus; it certainly makes my job easier, so, we’ll go with it, and let the chips fall where they may…. That, by the way, looks like this….
Shall we Pearl?
“Convictions are more dangerous enemies of truth than lies.”
~~ Friedrich Nietzsche ~~
********************************
I’ve decided to use the music from various artists in this organization as our default, at least for the time being. Since I’m not spending a lot of time at the computer, it will save some of it for actually creating Pearls, which is already hard enough without the extra time. Here is one that I feel is, or should be, the single most important piece of music I know, for it shows humanity where our true salvation lies, to wit: within our own nature, and not in chasing after an illusory supernatural being who loves us, which has no evidence to support it. “It is in the shelter of each other people live.” Here’s one of the building blocks of that shelter….

Bulletin
Patterns exist to bring sanity, if illusory, at best;
follicular, reality seems to slip and slide.
Still, formal insanity consistently fails the ultimate test,
why place faith in answers. from which truth can hide?
Following the music brings us back in good time;
forever seemingly retreats from relevance.
Crazy, time stands still with yet another innovative rhyme,
no burgeoning intentions for sale, to shimmy. or dance.
Folly sits easily upon this brow;
fateful and afraid, entropy bows in shame.
Into the river of time, slowly, forgetful of how
courage gives strength, no matter the game.
Capricious, the muse demands obedient attention
at risk of exhibiting true durance vile.
Bereft, single copies sit unused, despite all intention;
while singular examples of fate pass at the stile.
Seminal events bring their own weight;
no scale necessary, no guessing by eye, or hand.
Only one lesson to learn, just pay the freight;
the music is playing, and you’re part of the band.

That’s it. That’s all I’ve got; besides, my butt’s done with the chair for now. I think I’ll go for a walk in the early morning cold and dark, & see what sort of mischief there is to find…. I don’t know when I’ll be back with a fresh Pearl, but, you may rest assured, I shall. Until then, y’all be strange, and stay alert. It’s getting pretty weird out there in the BBR…. See ya….
Y’all take care out there,

Wasn’t Edie married to Paul Simon? Nice to see you almost back to form….”How many Reubs does it take to change a light bulb? None–they get the Hispanic maid to do it.” see ya later….chuq
Had to Google her marriage; yes, she IS married to Paul, since 1992, according to Wikipedia…. In the infamous words of Johnny Carson, “I did not know that….”
*grin*
LOL… I would guess that’s only if they know how to spell ‘light bulb’…. It felt good to post one, for sure….
I’ll try to get by, but, lot’s to do in the BBR today…. need cat litter, badly….
Take care, bro….

by me.. use the YouTube
Auto-generated SonGS by
the big hits less the copy-right
strikes erase them in the future
unless available by the original
artists although some folks
obviously ain’t
in art
just
for the
prostitution
of money no
different than
a nude spread
of Trump’s Wife.. hehe..
oops.. that reMiNds me..
my sister said check her out..
back from that and in my estimation
her best asset is her face as now the
rest of it stands out as a liTiTle fake..
what can i say.,
i love Nature
all miley cyrus real aS Such..
and it was really cruel what that
SNL writer did to ‘her’ son Barron
really cruel as surely that boy
is taking in so much
of his
environment
in extra stimulus
way.. been there done
it.. diagnosis or not it’s so hard..
but hey.. once you put it out their
for pay
it’s all
out thEir for say..
and perHaps she went
to hell first to get to THeRE
too to be as free as that for pay or not..
strike one up for human freedoms.. what better
way of life.. selling yourself as art or being a prostitute to work for pay..
anyWay.. becoming first lady is surely a way to promote her nude erotic art..

It’s true.. like the Gospel

In memory too of the time in middle
school when walking back the usual

so dam bad but was too afraid to break
the rules
to
pee
behind
a tree..
oh.. culTure..
you suck you

anyWay.. i peed my pants on the

was/is

i sAid
fuck all the clothes
and just let it FucKinG go..
but only for a moment as i went
back to cultural priSon and stayed
tHeRE wandering in STRAIGHT ARROW it for 40
more years from age 13 to 53.. hell yes.. for all practical
intents
and
purposes
most modern
humans are modern
Moses too.. baNisHed from

and yeah.. yeah.. science.. i know sanitation
rules like this have/do save(d) more lives than

“Immortality lies not in the things you leave behind,

Truth/light is for those who understand
Aleister’s writing deeper that man through
all his hyperbole as left a bigger mark
on culture than most folks see in art
the way
it still
comes
through pop-culture
even more so now than ever..
sadly.. at core spRead too.. propagation
of life stealing drug addiction too as he
made that
life
stealing
way of life
sacred
and
holy
out of
balance too..
per folks like
Jim Morrison and the like..
bottom line/words.. WiLL and Choice/Lust/Love..
and be careful of who one idolizes as ‘perfect’..
no less/more
thennow/than
Muhammad
Jesus.. Buddha..
Lao.. Mythological
Krishna.. eTc.. aL.. most
who
truly
indicate(d)
they weren’t
the final authority
except for one as so-called
sacred texts seem to sHow..
and sure.. we see the continuing
death and destruction of that too..
Aleister said
there was
only one
Law..
True
WiLL
over Love..
and surely
iN faCT and
continuing Acts
that puts his freedom
well over the covered priSons
of Muhammad.. eTc..aL.. stiLL.. life stealing
drugs or not.. better than swords for sELL..
so yeah..
“the beast”.. A
great hyperbolic
way to touch some
lives with at least naked
freedom.. iF noThing else..;)
And the sad thing is.. most folks
are too glued to science and
