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.

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

Hmm, I guess we better turn left.
Powerful and theatrical piece. And from 1983. Huh.
1983. Forty years ago.
Look back forty years from 1983 and it’s 1943. What was the world like in 1943? If you don’t know, then you are due a strong, thorough, and immediate education in world history and in sociology.
Here is a sample of the music from 1943 for context, Harry James and Helen Forest:

Very curious how the forces that molded behavior during each 40-year sample produced such differing, and such similar outcomes.
The immortal lunacy of David Byrne. Madness that communicates better than any exposition!
Sobering little drive in the city…great music for our times though, Can you get a more diverse set of band mates?
of course, “The music that won the War” will always be among the finest
Car bombs will be our tools, this nation’s full of fertilizers! Every kitchen is a bomb factory. A very small amount of chemistry knowledge, could be killer.
When this conflict started in Uk, I wrote, the “ONLY chance” thug nation Ukraine has,,,,,,,is to attack deeply into Mother Russia. This is basic guerrilla baby steps warfare.
Imagine if you will,,,,,,,, twenty thirty bombs a day in the Russian civilian population. Shit would change rickie tickle.
1.9 trillion reasons to be very unhappy with this nations leadership. Spent the evening reviewing the PORK, The Republicans heaped on us. Haven’t gotten to the communist pork yet.
This is absolutely sickening. These people, deserve to be dead.
I’m amused regarding the Twitter dumps. Do any one of you seriously believe accountability with come from Within the Swamp. Your lying to yourself.
Nothing will happen to the FBI, 121 Federal ex employees working at Twitter, who knows how many across the bigs businesses. These guys are paid by their agency’s, and again by their Infiltrated firms.
This is treason will continue until We The People unfuck it.
Tic Toc!
I liked the one, from early in the present war, where dude was driving his car in a city in Ukraine and mortar shells began landing, and driver dude was swerving left, then right then left, and threading the needle betwixt the incoming rounds!
In all of my time as a mortarman, both as a mortar officer and an enlisted puke, I never considered some guy in a car weaving his way through a mortar bombardment, with his dashcam running, and basically flipping the bird at the barrage.

I love LDW performance; got to be one of the best shows ever.
As far as this nation is concerned, I’m really tired of hearing about its destruction and the marxist Left, the GD homos, the GD trannies, the GD blm and antifa, the GD US congress and the GD president who are in concert. Let them have this nation and in a few short years they will all be bitches of Chinese troops. They deserve that future…..every second of it.
I apologize for the rant, immediately above, to anyone who I may have offended. As a Christian I love the Lord and all He has done for humanity and for me and I should not have used His Name in vain. I sincerely regret writing that and I apologize.
But, exclusive of the regretful profanity, I’m pretty staunch on the rest of what I said. Happy Holidays ya’ll.
