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.

I saw a great bumper sticker today… “Make America a Lifeless Volcanic Hellscape Again”
Ghislaine Maxwell just got 20 years.
Wonder if the CCTV security cameras stay on that long.
Can we please wait until my Korean War vet combat wounded father dies before his sworn enemy the Chicoms take over? I just don’t want him witnessing the entire sh*tshow and mass exterminations. Thank you!
All due respect to your military veteran father.
Last I checked, the CCP of 2022 wasn’t flooding the border with Squatemalans, wasn’t forcing your grandkids to attend Drag Queen Story Hour, wasn’t trying to take away your firearms, and wasn’t working day and night to Section 8 Basketball Americans into your neighbourhood.
Fore the eleventy-fifth time… the Chinese aren’t your buddies by a long way, but they’re not even in the Top 5 of your existential enemies.
Obsessing about the Chinese in the current year is a Cope. A massive diversionary Cope to avoid having to think or talk about things and people and Peoples much closer to home.
My father was also a Korea (and WW II) vet. Best wishes to your dad, and may he be with you for several years to come.
