When September Comes (poem)


October lies waiting; a tiger beyond September
hungry for wildebeest boxes sugar-topped corny flakes
jellied berries of orange, red and blue dropped from the world
wary that decorating signs of seasons changing like neon dreams
become obstructions deftly yo distant destinies

Driveways of blacktop spiral downward in space-time vortexes
girding the round world wankily
-creation encrusted in part
like a jewel
shedding months of amnesia fading yesterdays
unconcerned with old times' broods of days settled
while foods that flowed like shiny lucre
compiling resolutely and silently as August rolls away
gold-plated to its temporal garage
sounds of potential emerging earthquake symbols
sun-tide of clouds overcoming mountains
taller than those eroded away

So nothing remains of summer to remind one of bitter-sour
recognition that time is more and less
burnt creme repasts of something and nothingnesses-

verisimilitudes of years were barren and never being


Nothing remains of summer to remind one of bitter-sour
recognition that time is more and less
burnt creme past of something and nothing
verisimilitude of years that were barren to never being


Food for bear wistfully wandering wait where trees fall
through clef notes echoed in chords when quantum uncertainty
izes indeterminate super-positions of all possible locations
nerve again isolated from wave-particles traversing
reasons that ideas and tides of words emerge to expression


All forests of dying green meadows with fish of September
seek magnetic traces of river's home profits
political currents covering hundreds of swimming fins
through-put being and nothingness


After October another wave names months so cold
those in cracked, parched dry lakes baking under the star
feel a glimmer of theoretical relief if a thought
receded in time to global warming farther north
packing November's proud icy snows
floating in fogs mountain skies
stops
frosting one Earth with its December
turning away from another like the year before
when solstice's short day leaves night smiling
every thing that could be said about September said
when poets that loved summer went on strike
thinking of grass mowed
and goats frolicked with piles of chewy delight


Just for a moment when the sun stops flight
Earth waits for second impulse to return to increasing photon lucidity
as if tight days packed together were sober with realization
sensing increase lost with the innocence of September where the pressure of time
stocks stores up for fall transition
inventory clerks counting what's on shelves
discount stacks built time
a new class arrived to eyeball tomorrows with secret lusts
rhymed with cheap novels worlds away
written about leaves falling in autumn colors
that were multifarious coatings of puke
barfed upon the topography like sessions of Congress
almost none loved
Presidential campaigns perfecting pomp and circumstance
so persons of interest leaning against lampposts
contemplating unknown billions in back street pacs
indifferent to common hopes
for shelter beside the door, hammer and plans
in the bug hotel risen high
with a tidal wave of minutes given before nothingness
the sum total of darkness
itself disappears before the day
September comes.




Sanctifying American Ancestral Dinosaur Oil Underground (fiction)

When I interviewed a resistance fighter of the oil underground-a mujahideen for cheap gas, I asked why he thought it right that holey war should be waged on the export of American crude oil. He said that; “American dinosaurs sacrificed their lives in many instances to become today’s deep oil fracked to the surface in an undignified way. They are the spiritual ancestors of today’s politicians that would end the ban on exporting oil to North Korea, Cuba any foreign nation with the cash to plunder their mortal remains. When so many generations of proud American dinosaurs lying deep underground went into making today’s crude oil, how is it that so little respect is given to their mortal remains?


Corrupt politicians would send ancestral oil abroad to become foreign machine pharts -in-the-air in disorder to reduce U.S. oil supply, desecrate their memory and gouge worshippers of gasoline at national sacred churches of wholly petroleum. Americans venerating the oil of their political ancestral dinosaurs would keep the communion of gasoline beneath 50 cents per gallon.


Ancestral dinosaurs of American politicians died to make men phree. If phreedom is not phree, sanctified go-juice should dat least cost fewer than 50 cents a gallon. So long as the rivers run and the Gobi desert west hasn’t reached Chicago we will fight to make men and women phree.”

Futurism & Easier Build-Boat Material Concepts

While watching Redford's sailing yarn 'All is Lost' I noticed the problems with underinflation of his life-raft. The same problem exists in life rafts sometime with sharks wearing holes through the material or emergency repairs of holes (see 'Adrift' 82 days in a life raft in the Atlantic). It occurred to me that it would be a good idea to have multiple layers of something like bubble wrap industrial strength to have ultra-deflation proofing in some way with built in solar panels affixed to the material to recharge electric motor or radio batteries or micro-desalinator, yet that isn 't why I am writing this blog entry.

Didn't you hate it when the VC suicide bomber runs into the field HQ and blows himself up in Platoon? Such rotten combat engineer work. Better designs or a little mazing would have slowed down the infiltrator. There are often better, more thoughtful designs possible for about anything than already exists.

So one has problems making small trimaran sailboats when homeless; where does one find a lot to build the boat in and so forth much less transport it to water. California public beaches are not boatyards-maybe somewhere near Malibu, yet I doubt if boat construction is allowed there for mere mortals. One must therefor discover more adaptable boat form materials and construction materials that can be assembled quicker to form to facilitate quick assembly and launching of a boat.

Usually one uses wooden boat frames, weldwood and so forth buying plans and cutting out frame shapes, gluing them together with weldwood or marine epoxy. One can buy b a roll of fiberglass c-flex planking at the factory in Pascaghoula Mississippi and have it trucked to where one is, yet one still has the slow frame construction issue much less the high cost of epoxy and fiberglass that precludes significant error in shape.

I believe that a bendable framing material that keeps its shape in makeing upside-down forms that fiberglass, bendable planking can be put on and rolled with epoxy would be a good time-expediting tool. One could pre-cut frame component lengths for a boat and mail them strait yet bending them into position at the assembly location by hand. For trimaran hulls the shapes taper toward bow and stern obviously, so one knows what I am describing. Once the fiberglass is applied and dried the frames are either made to be disposable to become part of the vessel. I suppose one could cut something like fiberglass planking with thin metal strips within form pieces in some way.

For purposes of nthis blog post I wanted to suggest that there may be a number of ways to make bendable boat forms and even small dome building forms that are easy to assemble and perhaps cover with a number of kinds of material. There might be world-wide use for such simple construction components-who can say.

On this topic of future building materials the topic of placing a ban on robots of war has arisen-its probably a good idea, yet one that has problems with hardware and software continuum containment criteria. It is simply the case that any sort of program code in a machine-even a clock radio-is a robot in a way, though it be of very low IQ. Stopping the proliferation of code in chips and software with code from going into machine wouldn't actually halt the proliferation of machines with programming that can deliver harm to humans.

Consider that in about 30 years there may be global networks of of energy and information that are wireless covering every square meter of the planet Earth.  Cargo will float and travel in wireless power streams and room-temperature super-conducting materials in flying drone batteries will allow unlimited surveillance of every place on Earth continuously. People that survive the concentration of wealth reductionism era may get used to the perennial monitoring by a vast armada of government and corporate entities.

Human travel may simply be floating along on a platform in the energy stream. Already one may recharge some electric car batteries wirelessly in a garage. In 30 years wireless energy transmission technology will advance a lot, as will solar energy voltaics and super-conductors. Altogether it will be a different world requiring better use of economic value theory, land use and social justice. 

It would be an unfamiliar world where ubiquitous g.p.s. guided packages entirely replaced the U.S. postal service with transparent mail is transparent packages floating along flypaths to addresses delivered with protocol permissions from residents and people being delivered while sleeping off mandatory government depression screening and drug reconditioning could commute to work on a flying carpet dreaming in a rem state of vacation at the beach house.

Yet people failed to understand that capitalism is supposed to be rather more egalitarian and with labor and ownership in a closer feedback loop without government imbalancing one side or the other. Taxation is supposed to be regulatory ion the rich and poor in order to keep them dialectically balanced and forever progressing with adaptive ecospheric economic contextual cognition capacity. Even good new free enterprise is stifled by concentrated wealth and networked power resisting change.

Ending U.S. Oil Export Ban Will Help Drive Up Gas $Price

Now that fracking has produced  a surfeit of domestic oil production and gasoline costs have dropped oil corporations and their sycophant politicians are seeking to end the ban on foreign sales of U.S. crude oil (made in the U.S.A.) in order to tighten up national supply (outsourcing excess), increase demand and make new record profits for big oil like the good old days. If only such logic worked in the Democrat Party about national labor supply and demand, wages might be better. Three Butches and two Clintons since Reagan running for the White House sure make Americans seem like servile devils with little political sense. President Obama believes democracy exists in Ethiopia, yet does it or corporatism exist in the U.S.A.?

Senator Murkowski and Speaker Boehner support ending the ban.

Culture of Conscience

Conscience is a topic not often written of in this era as well as did John Gill write of it in chapter 22 of 'Practical Divinity'. In Latin 'science' meant 'knowledge'. Conscience is thus a science, or a state of mind with knowledge of itself able to judge its own actions. Today though conscience is made with God's laws and instructions for right behavior criteria preponderantly absent in the minds of many Americans under the influence of the unconscionable broadcast media and to a certain extent, government. Each have removed God as the individual to whom their conscience is normalized and reset it just unto themselves and secular opinion. The effect is notable.

It is a scientifically established fact that by 27 weeks a fetus can recognize words and even syllables. A newborn that has often heard a particular word while gestating can recognize and react to it. The unborn can even learn to recognize syllables. A newborn that did not experience a specific word while unborn will be as unresponsive as an atheist adult is toward claims of Christian conscience when the word is said. With more than 50 billion abortions served since Rowe v. Wade, the conscience of the U.S.A. has taken a beating from spiritless thugs.

Gill describes elements, relationships and forms of human conscience in this chapter within a section on internal forms of worship and the relationship with God that illuminate the important role conscience plays in the mind and life of Christian. Christian conscience is free from sin knowing that Jesus Christ has freed them from what they could never have liberated themselves. It is an important distinction not made plain enough even in churches today sometimes where forgiveness of sin seems to be an abstract sort of event accomplished metaphysically rather than actually.

There is a very large difference between the conscience of an individual with personal egoism and atheism setting the parameters than there is for than for those reborn in the blood of the Lord. Christians of good conscience with moral criteria reset to those of the Lord Jesus Christ are free indeed. When the Christian fails to live up to those standards it is to those standards that he seeks to return, while the atheist and egoist have no such direction as they swim blind to the light in the darkness waiting for sharks to take them under. Instead moving in the dark pool of Lord Vader (only joking) phenomenally adjusting his/her/its subjective psychologically attenuated heart of darkness toward the light-hearted frivolity of secular sensualist satisfaction he/he/it moves from next gestaltic drive-fulfillment to another in a succession of theories that evolve like unique snowflakes falling from space-time in showers of for-themselves echoing through Kabuki that is space-time evolving doom they should pray for the merciful spirit of the Lord. The wrong choice has profound impact on tax and foreign policies for-others as well as the eternal spiritual condition of the lost-with-others-destined-to-hell.

Internal Forms of Religion

John Gill's book 'Practical Divinity' is in its own way brilliant. The twenty-two chapter leading section on internal forms of religion as distinct from the following section on external forms such as occur at regular church services works to develop those important, vital characteristics of the thought of a Christian living in-the-world. I will write a little here of the Danish philosopher Soren Kierkegaard.

Kierkegaard was a poet initially rather than a philosopher. Though he was Christian and heavily drawn to the subject he was not an ordained priest or minister with a church or parish. For quite a time he was tempted to take such a position and even negotiated a little with church officials about it. In reading his works it is easy to see why some have regarded Kierkegaard as an early existentialist philosopher because of his attitude toward salvation and the Christian life of his day while in the world. He wrote with a poet's insight of how the Christian should stand in complete phenomenal relationship to God without concern for else. The detachment from temporality is worthy of Sartre's objective review of all experience as subjective.

Kierkegaard does write of Abraham's situation of being brought to sacrifice Isaac yet he is necessarily regarded as a Christian philosopher instead of as a Christian theologian. Theologians tend to be far more scripturally oriented directly writing of the meaning of particular scripture and considering it with modal hermeneutical methods. There were scholastic theologians such as Aquinas and Duns Scotus in the late Middle Ages and brilliant early theologians like St. Augustine so heavily influenced by neoPlatonism and exposure to other philosophical schools as to be able to write comparatively well-informed of subjective schools of thought and develop in response a concentration on scripture informed of empirical issues of space-time such as had been raised in his day in order to write well enough about it in reference to scripture.

Sometimes the internal forms of religion and worship and set aside in Christian ecclesiastics and the outward, ritual forms are structured even to disregard the inward forms. That may occur in Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant sects.

On the other hand, atheist and agnostic sects of government and media may work to annihilate Christian conscience and inward forms of thought altogether. Removing Christian conscience and internal forms of religion may occur concurrently with a rise of raving dissociationist psychology with associationist truth value theory philosophically. What better way to outrun the void of Christian conscience than with fractured thought and social ethics governing meta-sociological phenomenalism?

Internal forms of religious experience are the foundation for Christian experience under God with the Lord's saving grace for all of the elect. While it may be nice to utter some Latin phrases, here the rising beautiful songs and catch a whiff the the sweet smelling incense wafting around the altar the love of God is unbound to temples of any sort other than making itself one with the human heart and mind. It is in the internal forms of worship that one has a direct experience of God.

Seven Precepts of Noah

The Seven Precepts of Noah- described by John Gill in his book 'Practical Divinity' remind one of the Decalogue. One can see that abortion was regarded as murder and homosexuality definite sin. These precepts are probably still valid categorizing sin correctly. It is somewhat ironic that people violating two of the seven precepts in such quantity are also the greatest contributors per capita to global warming and potential mass lowland flooding. Global warming sea level rising 80 feet by the year 2100 may be an adjustment for the kind of people that violating Noah's precepts.

If the U.S. Supreme Court lacked fundamental integrity and honesty, or perhaps adequate intellect to realize what marriage is, one might wonder what alien force corrupted them or broke up social and political cohesiveness as if dissolving the strong force binding protons together. Original sin conditioned mankind to hate the good and prefer evil. In marriage two become one flesh. The union of two genomes become one new genome-a human infant.

Human genomes are compatible only male and female to conjugate and become one new genome. That is the mystery of marriage. Society sanctified it. It has a legacy from Adam and Eve and symbolizes the marriage of the elect to God through the Lord; individual human souls share the spirit of God. Humans and God also have different 'genomes' (except maybe for the majority members of the U.S. Supreme Court). Humans are saved through the grace of the Lord and Jesus Christ so they are bonded into God.

If the class genomes cannot theoretically combine to become one new genome then marriage does not occur. The court doesn't know that not all words are abstract or purely symbolic-some words are representational. Homosexuals cannot marry, people and monkeys cannot marry, hippopotamus and humans cannot marry, dogs and cats and donkeys and people cannot marry. The court doesn't get it or perhaps believe they've power of God to define reality for-themselves. The U.S. Supreme Court showed it does not care about truth, and has the power to put over the big lie.

The High Court failed to comprehend marriage and promulgated a fabrication, a fiction, a dissimulation, a falsehood, an error, a lie, a deception upon the public with force de majeure as if truth is only what they say it is.

Gill write in Practical Divinity that; "this conjugal union, male and female, become one, even one flesh, (Gen. 2:24; Matthew 19:6) which union is therefore very near and strict, and, indeed, indissoluble but by death, excepting in one case, unfaithfulness in the one to the other, by adultery or fornication, (Rom. 7:2; Matthew 5:32) and this state is to be entered into with mutual consent; indeed, with the consent of all parties who have a concern in it; with the consent of parents and guardians, under whose care single persons may be; and especially with their own consent, for none are to be forced into it against their wills; no, not by their superiors; it must be their own voluntary act and deed: and being thus entered into, it is a very honourable state (Gen. 1:27; Mal. 2:15)."
Here are the precepts of Noah-of ancient lineage. It is easy to see that the High Court has again sided with wickedness.

Quoting Gill from page 450; "for it is asked, “who is Ger Toshab; that is, a proselyte allowed to dwell in Israel? (the answer is) Whoever takes upon him, in the presence of three neighbours, that he will not commit idolatry.” It follows, “R. Meir, and the wise men say, whoever takes upon him the seven precepts which the sons of Noah obliged themselves to observe.” Others say, “these do not come into the general rule of such a proselyte. Who then is one? He is a proselyte who eats what dies of itself; (or) who takes upon him to keep all the commandments in the law, except that which forbids the eating of things which die of themselves;” 331 but the usual account of such a proselyte is, that he agrees to observe the seven precepts enjoined the sons of Noah; 332 six of which were given to Adam, the first man, and the seventh was added to them, and given to Noah, and are as follow: 333 a. Concerning idolatry; by this a son of Noah was forbid to worship the sun, moon, and stars, and images of any sort; nor might he erect a statue, nor plant a grove, nor make any image. b. Concerning blaspheming the name of God. Such an one might not blaspheme, neither the proper name of God, Jehovah; nor any of his surnames, titles, and epithets. c. Concerning shedding of blood, or murder, the breach of which command he was guilty of, if he slew one, though an embryo in his mother’s womb; and one who pursued another, when he could have escaped from him with the loss of one of his members, &c. d. Concerning uncleanness, or impure copulations; of which there were six sorts forbidden a son of Noah; as, with an own mother, with a father’s wife (or stepmother), with another man’s wife, with his sister by the mother’s side, with a male, or with mankind, and with a beast. e. Concerning rapine, or robbery and theft; of which such were guilty, whether they robbed a Gentile or an Israelite, or stole money, or men, or suppressed the wages of an hireling; and the like. f. Concerning the member of a living creature, taken from it while alive, and eating it: this is the command, it is said, which was to Noah, and his sons, and of which the Jews interpret Genesis 9:4. g. Concerning judgments or punishments to be inflicted on those who broke the above laws: this command obliged them to regard the directions, judgment, and sentence of the judges appointed to see the said laws put into execution, and to punish delinquents."
