.....on tormenting personal recesses

CXIV

Or whether doth my mind, being crown'd with you,

Drink up the monarch's plague, this flattery?

Or whether shall I say, mine eye saith true,

And that your love taught it this alchemy,

To make of monsters and things indigest

Such cherubins as your sweet self resemble,

Creating every bad a perfect best,

As fast as objects to his beams assemble?

O, tis the first; 'tis flattery in my seeing.

And my great mind most kingly drinks it up

Mine eye well knows what with his gust is 'greeing,

and to his palate doth prepare the cup:

If it be poison'd, 'tis the lesser sin

That mine eye loves it and doth first begin.

Awaiting grass fever and snow blindness

My good friend & neighbor to the south says wifey

wants to pull the plug on landscape plant sales this summer, so, given the housing picture, shrinking

profit margins continue to squeeze growers. I've put

my bid in for one of his greenhouses. Best deals are close to home!

Currently reading ICEBREAKER - Who Started the

Second World War? by Viktor Suvorov. (.pdf)

The cast includes Marx, Engels, Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin, and all the Soviet wartime marshals; Soviet publications are the main source.

Of Marxist-Leninist literature I've read, a portrayal

such as this fits with todays blindness regarding who

is America's friend? In circumstances of empire with

attendant over-reach, together with citizens rights

that once were sacrosanct now revoked.... may I dare question this without fear of disappearance? Or

should I expect the role of cannon fodder like the Poles under Stalin?

PREVIEW

I too think citizens are being made to feel irrelevant as lawless corporate

greed dominate mainstream history in the making, while ignoring public

will. All are aboard but the public at large which stands mute and voice-

less.

The vast majority of this public is distracted and wholly unable to function

as the gulf widens between it and those aboard the corrupt new history

unfolding.

What to do. What to do.

A small fraction of the disenfranchised are genuinely altruistic and can

always be counted on to actively participate and selflessly give their

support. This is where we're at.

Neither #OWS nor Tea Party gets it. The first is inarticulate. The other

frustrated and subverted by wealth.

This leaves options that work, or have in the past. I offer representation

as in citizen participation, as the only avenue forward to reclaim goodness

attainable.

Robert's Rules of Order in simplified form will enable the most skeptical

to fathom good comprehension where printed agenda's are offered too.

Give me three (3) motivated people and each local public meeting becomes

fluid. I said that.

Or, return to options in myth, perhaps where the mute and voiceless now

hope:

Two well traveled gents enjoyed food and drink at an inn during one of Europe's bloody wars. The conversation drifted to one's philosophy of life. "Its like there are two armies joined always in battle, allegiance change often, and with death, famine, pestilence and natural tragedy comes a giant with seven league boots who rampages the countryside indescrimately killing people. My philosophy is to enjoy life, help my fellow man, and occasionally pitch a pail of grease under the boots."
