I Want To Clone Your Organic Garden
Yorkshire Countryside, October 2006
One person's hero can be another person's enemy. A Patriot here can mean a Scud over there. A Rendition here can mean Torture over there. Insurgent here or avenging father there. Electoral here or Popular there.
Literacy helps us understand this complicated world. Take aside language and rhetoric and look at the actions of people as if they were as pure as the gold that was under the Trade Center at one time though. Will you now see what is right and what is wrong?
Perhaps there is no right and wrong. Do I eat the cow because I am hungry? Do I eat the cow because it tastes good?

Funny how there are signs to help the western civilization cross the street properly over in England. Funny how we don't extend the same courtesy on our streets to them.
Is it a courtesy or is it because we are stupid?
Everyone on the metro tube looked like zombies for the most part. Some reading their papers. Others just staring straight ahead. Getting herded like cows before being slaughtered.
A taxi driver once said something about getting nowhere. He said we all eat at the same time. We all drink at the same time. We all plan our functions at the same time. That's why it was hard for him to get through the traffic jam. That's why he was angry at everyone.

Ding. Ding. Ding. The bells ring from day one. The alarm clock. The phone. The recess bell. The Stock Exhange. The fire alarm. The trolley.
Finding ourselves intoxicated to release our inhibitions and to be who we should be. To break the barriers of fear and ridicule.
Being afraid to be who we really are. What we really stand for. What we could have, should have, would have been.
Only because the people that will never take that risk themselves will be the first to criticize you, cut you down, and slaughter you like the fucking cow you are.
