new calendar
yesterday, t-shirt weather
today long underwear
hmmmm, hmmmmmm
modified the diet recently
looked into the dumpster as I
always do
sitting near the top was a
small micro wave
i fished it out
smelled bad
rotten meat in a bag in the
thing
not too much though
cleaned it out with bleach
and soap
works fine
set it up and made tea
and cooked sweet potatoes
and popcorn
and more popcorn
and two cheap sausages
sort of meat flavored putty
things
kk for $1.36 though
and more popcorn
Hmmmmm, hmmmmmm
quit eating at the “facility”
where I am a “guest”
kept feeling, ah..sort of,
ahh…”modified”
not the first time I had to
cease and desist
with the vittles at a place
like this
ya, know once you are in a
place where
you are described as
“homeless” you are subject
to all kinds of odd treatment
first of all you are guilty
of poverty in a society
which cherishes wealth
the fact that you are “homeless” makes you
a criminal
so it is only right that you
be “chemically modified’
‘cause as soon as you become
homeless you are most likely going to break into the “good folks” homes
ravage their children and
pets
steal grand-ma’s antique jewelry
and piss on the side of the
house
this is an interesting
phenomenon
“homeless” equals criminal
and pissing on the side of
the house
or light pole or dumpster
certainly to
follow quickly
but, what are ya’going to do?
just deal with it.
hmmmm, hmmmmm
“For, I have learned, in
whatever state I am, therewith to be content.” Philippians 4:11
i learned a new word recently
BRICOLAGE
A person who engages in
bricolage
Is a
BRICOLEUR
that's me
a bricoleur
i live a bricoleurs life
didn’t know it until now
thought I was odd or
something
ya’ got to love the French
they have a place for
everyone
hmmmmm, hmmmmmm
i have been wondering if the
occ-u-pee wall street
folks have a second act ready
i read an interview with
John C. Bogle recently
big time wall street fellow
82 years old
nothing to lose
his company controls a
trillion bucks worth of investments
he says-
“I’m selling my investment to
you and you are buying it from me and it creates no value to society.
Indeed it subtracts value
because the guy in the middle gets his peace.”
he says we do 40 trillion
bucks a year in trading.
i remember Ralph Nader,
remember Ralph?
elections coming up
remember Ralph.
anyhow I remember Ralph
saying
“look, we don’t need to bail
wall street out
if we just tacked a small fee
for these trades
and put it in a trust they
would have the money
set aside to use in these
calamities.
But no one listened to Ralph
anyhow Bogle hates the middle
man
and so do i!
Hmmmmm, hmmmmmm
“I am the poor white, fooled
and pushed
apart,
I am the Negro bearing
slavery’s scars
I am the Red man driven from
the land.
I am the immigrant clutching
the hope I
Seek-
And finding only the same old
stupid plan
Of dog eat dog, of mighty
crush the weak.
“Let America be America again”
Langston Hughes (1902-1967)
Hmmmmmm, hmmmmmm
i don’t mind being homeless
but I could not tolerate
being hum-less

writing.
The job of the writer is to
kiss no ass, no matter how big and holy and tempting and powerful.”
