Welcome to the New American Digest: 2003-2020
Gerard Van der Leun
Stone-cutters fighting time with marble, you foredefeated
Challengers of oblivion
Eat cynical earnings, knowing rock splits, records fall down,
The square-limbed Roman letters
Scale in the thaws, wear in the rain. The poet as well
Builds his monument mockingly;
For man will be blotted out, the blithe earth die, the brave sun
Die blind and blacken to the heart:
Yet stones have stood for a thousand years, and pained
thoughts found
The honey of peace in old poems.
— Robinson Jeffers
His soul stretched tight across the skies
That fade behind a city block,
Or trampled by insistent feet
At four and five and six o’clock;
And short square fingers stuffing pipes,
And evening newspapers, and eyes
Assured of certain certainties,
The conscience of a blackened street
Impatient to assume the world.
I am moved by fancies that are curled
Around these images, and cling:
The notion of some infinitely gentle
Infinitely suffering thing.
Wipe your hand across your mouth, and laugh;
The worlds revolve like ancient women
Gathering fuel in vacant lots.
— Eliot
I CELEBRATE myself, and sing myself,
And what I assume you shall assume,
For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.
I loafe and invite my soul,
I lean and loafe at my ease observing a spear of summer grass.
My tongue, every atom of my blood, form’d from this soil, this
air,
Born here of parents born here from parents the same, and their
parents the same,
I, now thirty-seven years old in perfect health begin,
Hoping to cease not till death.
— Walt Whitman
The scientists are in terror
and the European mind stops
Wyndham Lewis chose blindness
rather than have his mind stop.
Night under wind mid garofani,
the petals are almost still
Mozart, Linnaeus, Sulmona,
When one’s friends hate each other
how can there be peace in the world?
Their asperities diverted me in my green time.
A blown husk that is finished
but the light sings eternal
a pale flare over marshes
where the salt hay whispers to tide’s change
Time, space,
neither life nor death is the answer.
And of man seeking good,
doing evil.
In meiner Heimat
where the dead walked
and the living were made of cardboard.

“……..but, we are criminally minded betrayers of our own country and President”.
But nothin’ !
Obammy kilt hundreds of MidEast critters without prosecution, including one american dude, with drone strikes.
I saw a cartoon with Salami’s severed hand, complete with ring, and holding a bag of Obama cash. The trouble for the dems is: we remember. We remember everything you sacks of shit have done. And, we are pissed.
But, However….
OK, what’s the deal here, do these people get a “media honey do” list every morning that they must memorize and then go out and smear their greasy mugs all over over as many vid cams as possible?
If not, they are doing a pretty good simulation that they do.
This has been going on throughout the Trump reign and every time it goes the same way – mass puppetry.
And this is what suffices for leaders running this country?
Hope you don’t mind, and I don’t give a shit if you do, I’ll have none of it.
Make sure to pick up a copy of my new book on amazon, “Finding Freedom In Prison”, thanx, Mgt.
Ghost nails it, as usual.
Who is the left wing-pinko-marxist-commie trash that writes up these lame-ass talking points then disseminates it to the Demo-pukes for regurgitation? What a bunch of hollow sock puppets.
If Obama had zapped this Saladvanilla puke, the media would have been praising him for it. Obama gave the go-sign for SEAL Team 6 to go zap Binladen and there were no concerted objections to how it was done. As Americans we were unified in knowing he met Jesus. FFS.
…but he’s dead.
The but people emerged after 9/11 and enraged me.
ghost, I guess you don’t listen to Rush. He does this all the time compiling examples of leftist garbage mouthpieces bleating the exact same slogans.
Read both of Rush’s books in the early 90’s and by the late 90’s I couldn’t listen to his 1 sided grandstanding any more. The criminals are on both sides and down the middle. I haven’t listened to him in many years.
In the bigger picture the band RUSH’s amazing drummer Neil Peart lost the fight with brain cancer this past Tues. My favorite rock band of all time.

… But! We cannot accept that this a win for President Trump!
If he did this then it is a bad thing, probably will cause Climate Change…. or something else that’s bad, and as soon as we figure out what that is we’ll impeach him for it!
