Bo will change nothing, hes just another bush, hes NWO, hes IMF, hes CFR, hes corporate created greed, hes the face on a milk carton to sell to the masses that think they control things, when in fact we the people control nothing. Hes federal reserve, hes trilateral commission,hes illuminate, he sucks Rockefeller ass ,as all elected have done for the past 30 plus years.Hes bought and paid for by ruling family's that own the banks.You will see little change, except that we shall lose more and more personal freedoms. I may share that your elected are one and the same ass suckers and will lie to get elected and get very little changed.They had Kennedy killed because he wrote a bill that still stands on the books to end the illegal federal reserve.This will be war against the big guys and you better have more then a stick and some rocks to fight them.Ron Paul was probably the only guy to tell the truth in a long time that ran for president here, but because he told the truth they made him out as a nutter and his followers, and gave him very little air time.Now every day, we see, the media sees that what he said was true, and so we are seeing a backlash from some in media against government and liars and well our wonderful change in a bottle B.O. Vent all you want about false change, 1/2 of America is pissed off.Till the other half figure it out, nothing will change.
No one is free we are all slaves!

Only slightly cynical? I do love reading your comments John - you always have me reaching for the dictionary - curmudgeon indeed...I think you are an old charmer at heart - even Augusta seems to be warming to you - though not too sure what that bum comment means. Glad to hear that you enjoy the site - it is important to very many, I think. I love the variety of characters you get on here - they make me laugh. Happy Christmas anyway. x

Chris has drawn this poem to my attention and I have to agree it is very striking. Particularly pertinent to me as I've just escaped being a wage slave.

'CHAMELION GOAL' - nice!

Hi Cynthia, thanks for comment on my polemic re Christmas Day Euro Millions.
You ask: "What did you think of Obama's comments on 'some wars are justified' and 'there is evil in the world'?"
Synchronistically, I am AT THIS MOMENT 'marking' young Barack's homework: (printout of his Nobel ACCEPTANCE! speech). His slippery elision from great pacifists to 'sole-arbiter America' (in the matter of Just Wars) and enemies who have 'no rules', tell you what a dangerous man he is. Once again it is 'fool or knave' time. Which appellation will he choose? As for evil in the world, 'He might say that, I couldn't possibly comment.'

This one for me is full of sorrow and loss. Missing people, lost moments, half forgotten dreams searching for a home.

the wooden breath of the ashes left
in the vestments of an empty room, alone, but
chipped with Rooks and Queens

was particularly strong for me. Maybe this one should be ain a book of some sort ;-)

Original item by Marianne Daniels

I'm sorry this poem hasn't had any comments yet (time of year I suspect, everyone's been busy). I hope it gets read. It is so concentrated, dense and thick with images and meanings that it is not the sort of poem that instantly appeals to me as a rule, but I've reread it a few times and I think it's a wonderful poem!

There is a sadness in this that it could be anyone. A person who goes through the motions... One who feels that their life is meaningless - that they have no real purpose.

Recently read your other stuff and love this! A sad reflection on our working lives in modern day Britain.Reminds me a bit of old punk songs,stuff by the Jam,etc.

Comment is about I Am (blog)

I totally agree with Chris; this is very engaging, and a great social comment. That 'fifteen minutes' of quiet preparation is intriguing. I considered 'teaching' might be your job, but fifteen minutes before class is likely not enough time, and a school is rarely quiet. The poem is thought-provoking.

I was happy to know that you do laugh and smile on occasion!
When someone writes about things that are so profoundly horrific - it is sometimes hard to know what to say...

I wish you love, happiness, and peace of mind...
Merry Christmas and a very Happy 2010 to you : )

It could have been me on a bad day trying to pick a fight... However, I'm normally like you John - I like straight forward poetry that I can easily understand. Being on WOL for any length of time though, exposes you to so many different styles, that eventually you start to be more open minded. I can see the attraction of the unusual imagery and the sound of words - for sound's sake. Marianne seems to be so excellent at that.

Ilove this...and I don't know why. I think it was Izzy who criticised me for saying I had no patience with poems that didn't make much sense the first time you read them (apologies if it wasn't you Izzy...!) but any poem with the line 'he leans in parched kisses, swallowing kestrels...' in it, is going to grab me and make me read it again.

Lovely stuff!

Should 'whispers and armies of whales in the sky' not be 'and whispers of armies of whales in the sky'? Just a thought. It's another cracking line...whatever it means!

The Violin seems to be an instrument with a split personality. One side beautiful and the other (if played badly) a horndous streaching thing. You have captured this here i feel and the personality of the musician. another great poem Marianne. First Cello now Violin, next Guitar?
