After scanning its face again and again,
I began to scale it, picking my holds
With intense caution. About half-way
To the top, I was suddenly brought to
A dead stop, with arms outspread
Clinging close to the face of the rock
Unable to move hand or foot
Either up or down. My doom
Appeared fixed. I MUST fall.
There would be a moment of
Bewilderment, and then,
A lifeless rumble down the cliff
To the glacier below.
My mind seemed to fill with a
Stifling smoke. This terrible eclipse
Lasted only a moment, when life blazed
Forth again with preternatural clearness.
I seemed suddenly to become possessed
Of a new sense. My trembling muscles
Became firm again, every rift and flaw in
The rock was seen as through a microscope,
My limbs moved with a positiveness and precision
With which I seemed to have
Nothing at all to do.
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of
universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I
reach my hands and play with pebbles of
destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs
reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive
in the universe.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
What consequences ever happened to the corrupt officials?
I imagine nothing. Nothing at all.
I suggest with throw Mar’in Ludda Kang day in the shitter where it belongs and celebrate Marvin Heemeyer week every June 4 from 2019 forward. My kind of guy and God bless him.
Local Municipalities can be worse than Nazis. Marvin Heemeyer could be any one of us.
Remember, the founders were Tax-Evaders, Traitors, and Cop Killers.
Happy Killdozer Day!
Let’s see; my local town snuck a property tax override in by disregarding the state constitution’s requirements for ‘adequate’ notification of all over-ride elections. They had literally a stealth election, only the local teachers (and some other unions) knew about it. Actual property owners were greatly surprised the day after.
The town is beginning to look like a dump after the town unilaterally changed the trash codes and regulations to make anything other than the amount of trash that can fit into the (town mandated) trash receptacles an ‘extra’ charge. So people (especially the new ‘citizens’) are dumping all over town.
Can I find anyone else in town that is willing to raise Hell about it? Not so far.
Worthy of a killdozer? Not so far.

Hum.
A couple of other articles; Wikipedia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvin_Heemeyer ) and ati ( https://allthatsinteresting.com/marvin-heemeyer-killdozer ) suggest that perhaps Marvin was simply a first class nut rather than a reasonable man pushed too far. Also an article in ‘damn interesting’ ( https://www.damninteresting.com/the-wrath-of-the-killdozer/ ) is a bit more sympathetic.
At this point I’d be very hesitant to either glorify or demonize him, and, instead, just say, Marvin RIP.
