Where Are We?
these are frustrating times…
Where Are We? belongs to the following groups:
***♂♥♥QUORN♥♥♀, 1 In The Beginning - Ancient Practices, All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, ART ACTION UNION - CREATIVE ACTIVISM, Current Issues, End Times, Live, Love, Dream: , Practising the Dark Arts, Something To Say, Spiritual Art, The Word Tree, Underground USA and Western United States Artists and PhotographersAs they passed their new laws…their “FreedomsDestructionThroughIllusionarySecurityAct” one by one …we started to feel the pinch….chipping away at our daily lives…I know I’m feeling it…being a single father, unemployed, living in these times,...where careless parents run rampant thru Meth-induced madness, stealing from everyone they know, until they finally just disappear…
As over-priced lawyers only represent the highest paying liars,...
As Government Agencies take weeks and/or months to respond to a starving/homeless being, merely asking for some food to eat…” You must spend a waiting week or two, before the rich will share enough to throw some table-scraps to you”
As those who have much, much more than they could ever need, are stealing everything else…
As food is rotting in warehouses, unable to be sold for a profit, yet…
people sleep in the trash behind that same warehouse, starving thru the night..
As a boy, gets much needed medical treatment, thru his HMO, only to be denied 3-4 weeks after the procedure, so his father can be sent to a collections agency, while Fat-Cats and their wealthy Hags, can get nose jobs & liposuction, as they step all over people living out of bags…
...and YES you are free to speak your mind, as long as your mind is THEIR MIND!!!
YES!!! you are “free” to vote for the best candidate…this one or that?!
YES you have freedom of religion…as long as you’re not pagan,muslim,wiccan,buddhist,druid,or anything else not christian…
This planet is inhabited by very strange creatures…
Many of them seem to enjoy raping, abusing, decieving, and killing each other…
While many seem compassionate, loving, and fully aware of their connectedness and oneness…
Can we ever stop living…consumed with misunderstanding & fear?...
When will the power of love
truly overcome
the love of power…
can we change????...
...our system of Kings
and Pawns…
I DONT BELIEVE IN KINGS
I BELIEVE IN US.

well JJ, I can relate to this and agree with you as well, there is such a divide in life these days, I feel when I look around that life has let me down and I demand to know why from unseen God. When I watch the news I am horrified and prefer to look away not to see what is really happening in the world, but, life catches up, it always does. I see the rich where I live living beside the poor, their sneers disgust me, I am disgusted because once I wanted to be in their shoes….I .dont want to be them any more, I prefer to have nothing, at least I am free. I dont beleive in Kings either, but, I do beleive while i wasnt looking someone made me a pawn…YESME…

I am right there with you….we have nothing to lose,cuz we have to lose everything…no matter how much gold,plastic surgery,SUV’s & sports cars you have…you still gotta go some day…& you dont take none of this shit with you…so why do we cling so desperately to illusions.. of possesions….of power…I believe we can change our world …as artists we see it everyday… how many of us devote our time & energy to projects focused on sharing,expressing,giving…usually for NO-PROFIT at all!!!The Class War Goes On…Until WE Stop It!Thank you for your support M…You always kick ass!!

Great writing – powerful mesage – I see art about it and read words about it – I even see Movies and documentaries telling us about it – why doesn’t anyone do anything about it? I am baffled, and I know as the gap widens, which side I will be on, with my children…. here come the gestapo
