“Agreeing on Peace, they uproot the tallest pine tree and into the cavity thereby made them caste all weapons of war. Into the depth of the Earth, down into the deep underneath currents of water flowing into unknown regions; we caste all weapons of war. We bury them from sight forever and plant again the tree. Eagle perches atop the tallest pine tree, forever called the Tree of Peace; in his talons he clutches 5 arrows (13 US) and a pine bough (olive branch/US).” From a version of the Iroquois Constitution, which was ultimately an influence at the meeting of the 13 colonies’ representatives in Albany in 1754, as Benjamin Franklin apealed for. It is even rumored and witnessed that there were several members of the Iroquois Confederacy upstairs while they wer drawing up the U.S. Constitution downstairs.

On Monday, January 19th, Martin Luther King Day is observed in the U.S.. / His most infamous speech, “I have a Dream” was delivered to 250,000 civil rights supporters on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, at the culmination of the march on Washington for jobs and freedom, in August 1963. The speech is credited with mobilizing supporters of desegregation and prompting the 1964 Civil Rights Act. / Much of “This Dream”, seemingly died with him, when he was assassinated on April 4, 1968, in Memphis, Tennessee by a sniper’s bullet while he stood on the balcony, prior to a planned protest to march in sympathy for striking garbage workers in the city. The day before, he delivered a speech recalling a previous attempt on his life – prophetically explaining with serenity, “I’m happy, tonight. I’m not worried about anything. I’m not fearing any man.” On Tuesday, January 20, Barack Obama will be sworn in as the first African American President of the United States. This, to me, represents the return of the “Dream” and the American soul. / America is many things, but it isn’t a nation with a wisdom tradition – it needs to become one and soon…we need to become a wiser nation that is capable of introspective politics with a deeper regard for its philosophical and spiritual roots. It needs to return to a respect for higher principles and considerations of the generations to follow. / We were founded by philosophers and political mystics, men who held high dreams about what the human spirit deserved in terms of right government. America was born to be an experiment in the rights of the spirit as best as could be incarnated by men who could see the potential if successful for the benefit of all humanity. / The inauguration of Barack Obama represents far more than the historic swearing in of America’s first African American President. It represents a shift in the compass of power of America as it enters the global era, leaving behind America’s century of wealth and military domination. The days of international cooperation and diplomacy have begun with crises on every front, we also need to rediscover ourselves economically. Surely Americans are capable of creating ways of responding to the needs of this world rather than becoming dependant and fearful (returning to the days of the Great Depression). / The fact that we are on the verge of a new era already says that the inspiration abounds for those who are ready and able to make bold choices. / In voting in Barack Obama, we voted to return to the sacred contract of America because this man represents the rule of law. He is a professor of Constitutional Law, a man who respects the Bill of Rights and the fundamental principles upon which this nation was built. / WE CHOSE THE SPIRIT OF AMERICA OVER THE ILLUSION OF THE POWER OF AMERICA. / The well being of America is in our hands and it is up to us to reach into ourselves and reach for the soul paths of our lives, our highest potential of hope, ending the war, and the realism about the fact that we will need to sacrifice to make it through the years ahead together, with the spiritual grace of our forefathers. / I have a dream today in 2009…Welcome back America and may we bless and watch over President Barack Obama, his family and each and every conscious American! Photos of MLK, Obama and Flag are from public domain Google images, the eagle head is my own; the words are from MLK’s speech, “I have a Dream.” I still have a dream

Penned especially for this artwork, / “Nothing in the affairs of Men can overwhelm the spirit of a loyal citizen, when a Nation pledged to “Right” stands behind him” ~ Skye Ryan-Evans (copyright 2008) is featured in this version of the “Flag of my Homeland” poster. The patriotic design features a huge Bald Eagle flying before the US flag and the first page of the US Constitution or Bill of Rights. The colours have been carefully selected to complement the parchment colour-scheme for an authentic feel. Designed to rouse that patriotic spark that rises within each of us, “Flag of my Homeland” speaks to anyone who loves their country. (Digital photography, poetry and artwork by Skye Ryan-Evans plus an image of the US Constitution from public domain, serving as background.) 50% proceeds from all sales made, benefit Habitat for Humanity in the US. Thank you for caring. ~ Skye

THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATE OF AMERICA: SAVE ME NOW PLEASE!
by PHILLIPEDOANUS$3.99–US$91.20
THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATE OF AMERICA: SAVE ME NOW PLEASE! Digitization [2007]. The title ought to imply the sense of loss of certain inalienable rights: Life, Liberty, Pursuit of Happiness and the Right to Property. The Liberty is roding away for us as an American people. Which affects our everyday life in this mundane existence. Our pursiut of happiness was once beeing seeked via the Yellow Brick Road, until some of us discovered its lies casted by the Big Wizard in this Land of Oz. Obviously not enough of us give a shit right now, for we are too busy with hyper-consumption through enducement by the Media dictating to us to forget what we really need and propagate what we shouldn’t want. Well, not until Uncle Sam starts to fukk with out Properties and then, maybe, just maybe, most of us would wake up and realize that we are ALL drowning in a sea of blood. And where do you suppose this blood is coming from? The innocent Iraqis or the young men whom had lost their limbs if not lives in THIS GODDAMN STUPID WAR OF EMPIRE…BESIDES THAT FOLKS, JUST WANT TO INFORM YOU ALL THAT WE ARE DROWNING IN OUR OWN BLOOD BECAUSE THE WOOL WAS PULLED OVER OUR EYES THROUGH THEIR INDOCTRINATION WAY WAY BACK. AND THE WORST PART IS THAT IT IS OUR OWN WOOL…
