Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
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.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
The Vault
Take It Where You Find It
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light

Well that’s a Benediction from one of the Holy Ones.
Small Town Aficionados will like the sentiments expressed here:
And The Band Played On (Morgoth’s Review)

Morgoth is a man worth listening to.
Good grief
However, any one of us could have been born into that culture and possibly not fared any better at development of basic communication. Let us count our blessings today.
In a different world perhaps but not in this one. Money, medical care, educational opportunities from A-ZZZ along with every conceivable program to drag the pavement ape, screaming, crying, fighting, accusing and blaming from his ‘culture’ and into a better world have been offered and mandated but in most cases the effort has failed. And in millions of individual cases, only street smarts have increased and DeMarco still can’t hold a job but he still lays 100% of the fault for his condition and existence upon others.
He, of course, knows that he is living a lie and that blaming others is a lie but within his deep intellect he believes that repeating and believing lies exonerates him from any responsibility. His entire race believes it and exoneration for who and what they are and what they do is a foundational goal of that culture. Everything is make believe and a game and ‘whitey’ is a fool.
The ability to communicate is, at the very least, a basic human skill that increases and improves with a little attention and effort. This bozo and millions in his culture have said FU to every idea, person, effort, program and dollar that has been expended to keep him from being what he is. He is a pretty fair example to illustrate Prov 26:11.
And everywhere they live on this planet the story is exactly the same.
It’s easier, and lazier, to sound stupid than to practice enunciation. This allows one to fit in more comfortably with all of your surrounding idiots. Northern New Mexico has this annoying “norteno” slang, practiced by the Hispanics, infected with “Eeeee” and “barely” and mumbling that makes communication a hard task to listen to. Norteno is a declaration of stoopid and those who avoid the slang are shunned as uppity and sometimes suffer violence. I hate dumbass white southern hillbilly talk, too. The W moron who occupied the Oval Office comes to mind. So strange… George and Barbara were elite Connecticut WASP and none of their children speak that way, either. I think W speaks that way so he’ll be accepted by the majority. HL Mencken was so correct about the populace attaining their heart’s content when the White House is occupied by a certified moron.
Na that’s straight up street nigger, lingo. FWIW, not a clue what the nice negro said!
TNB….it’s all we see and hear in our news, in commercials, movies, all entertainment and every where we go. In short, we are niggered to death.
Well, I saw this vid and thought I’d share it. Not a niggra in it as far as I could tell and zero apologies for my lack of inclusiveness. Here is Rita Hayworth, Fred Astaire and others dancing to a BeeGee’s tune.

That’s a great one.
Love when she flips her dress at Sinatra.
What a work of art she was.
She was gorgeous, as beautiful a woman as drew a breath and every GI with a sac had her pinup on his wall and buried deep in his heart. She was so beautiful that air crews painted her likeness on the sides of the aircraft. She died from Alzheimer’s in 1987 when she was only 68 but Lord what an impact that lady made. She was a true America Dream Girl.
Knock the spade’s communications skills all you want, none the less, his head and his heart are in the right place. For real.
I for one would rather listen to his Negro patois describing Trump World in the most glowing terms his limited intellect allows him to muster than spend another second listening to the addlepated snake venom that spews daily, hourly, every damn minute from the lips of “educated” white news liars and poltroons and the politicians they constantly quote and promote.
In fact, I think I would rather spend the day with this fellow (well, not in his part of town, perhaps) than a nanosecond with any one of the myriad of white tik-tokers and SJWs with Twitter streams and Facebook pages, both male and female and whatever is in-between.
In the specific case, I prefer this ebony-skinned jackanapes to that insipid, mewling piece of sub-human phlegm, David Hogg. Can anyone here disagree? At least Mr. Fo’real has a grasp on how the world really works and what must be done to keep things together whereas the Hoggs of the internet world lack even the most elemental clue about such things. If you doubt me, take a gander at Hogg’s Twitter stream. His pretensions of intellectual and moral superiority are nauseating, particularly when combined with his spelling errors, syntax mistakes, and the general absence of coherent thought. I perceive that Mr. Fo’real at least recognizes his lack of intellect and makes no pretense of being an “intellect’shall.” That is, in itself, a refreshing change of pace.
Call me crazy or a snob but I don’t want to be around any of those assholes. The left is one aspect of the problem but guys like him are a faction of the rest of the problems.
OK Jack, you’re a crazy snob.
Not in his part of town………. Very Wise Retired Lawyer.
Hoggs a Fag!. He’s in a crowded liberal college gymnasium, playing pitch the powdered soap, with his butt brothers.
While I absolutely hate the book, titled “Turner Diary’s “. I grow less tolerant daily. The finals solutions frankly’s going to have to look similar to the books outcome. Sadly even that outcome will only buy another 100 or so years before team Americas gotta do it again.
