the symptoms of despair, the touch of anothers cold hand inhibiting the need to become other than your structured self a

self-unrealized through anothers eye, revelations, the sins of
youth ignored, each with a purpose of self-pleasure we rise in morning darkness we seek nothing of love for now money
demands our addiction, keep to theses patterns instilled in your mind, your control of your external world an illusion, a motive begins to form maybe a sense of action but now unnecessary
 
human nature is faulty and giddy with thoughts of power, pride just illusions of control and purpose for your time present is not for you but another seeking profits as you slave under motives that benefit others, your intellect confirmed narrowing your vision of self importance in the grip of chaos we keep to patterns always moving in one direction little blips of self-awareness soon to evaporate like bugs crawling up the wall seeking an escape, we feed our reality with fear of losing

importance based on income we are surrounded in corrupt ideals unnoticed laws passed in the dead of night giving our hard earned taxes to the wealthy 1%, and yet we feel the lessening of skill in corruption and now it prances before us unafraid to be recognized as criminal desires what we believe as life is a demonstration of the ego’s power building edifices to their character an illusion of the senses for they built nothing without stealing someone else’s hard earned income and dived right into

our tax dollars taking from us what dollars they wanted expanding their greed that made them stronger, more evil as they now play god over all of us, human behavior always in flux each generation latches on to the propaganda machine that seek their conformity, a better future when deep in our psychic we know we are being manipulated to believe in something that brings profits not for us but the immoral leaders of divine hypocrisy it is a pandemic of thoughtless facts that detour you from your own

nature separate and unique finding your footing is loose and your direction of self-understanding now evaporating even before you found your path to freedom of self-awareness to stand on your own feet to control your future and not the one being picked for you, your life now dismissed without support now you are put in the corral with the others and you must fight it out amongst the hateful eyes fighting for a little piece of power over someone, anyone to feel that you too could have been important

if you didn’t deny your future life by seeking your own unique truth, late in the growing calm of still thoughts I assume my life had a purpose, I think, I don’t think, I don’t want to think, I am dry of my own ideas my unique journey cancelled, a new look, a new pride, a new party to attend and yet they know me as an actor and not a person, an individual separate without an inner awareness of self, we are in a box without knowledge of the plans already forming without your consent, a carrot dangling before

eyes once focused now each moved to do the bidding of others, we think we know who we are and why we are here but nothing is for your benefit you are a character playing your part in meek yeses for what is present in you is a rejection of your individuality and going along with the flow of corruption, your new persona ignores your old traits of giving and now succumb to the demands of greed clutching for any simplistic means of pilfering anothers hard earned cash you have joined the new

human race, parasites with knowing eyes detecting one that is an easy mark as poverty joins the ranks of military madness, white supremacy ranks with superficial normalcy of hate, an irrational thought is thrown in the air, for one to grab, flipping coins to see how to demean others for fun and profit how do humans conditioned to hunt, conditioned to follow the hero idol, replace the aggressive animal instincts still in abundance in all humanity and move away from conventional thoughts and move toward an

intuitive perception of lives wasted in moments fighting with each other and not paying a purposeful awareness of the true culprits of our exploitation the affluent, these men and women are separate entities from us bought souls working hard for greed as they control more and more of our behavior, for they are the new controlling class of our liberty barely visible to the naked eye, we are too busy trying to survive the rampaging excess of these men and women of selfish addictions, their greedy

eyes always looking for a quick profit off the working class by introducing religion into our lifecycle, these unfeeling beings of aggressive power instigated a belief in a higher purpose and we the people of slavery had to endure the violence of rape, murder, wars, salvation through sacrifice, giving of oneself to this higher purpose a paradise waiting for us after death while the brutal nature of wealth that destroyed lives for pleasure in the past, present and into our infinite future was just a test of our faith in

a silent god that seemed to live in a vacuum of self praise and power, and when will mankind revolt against these false god’s not in heaven but here on this planet that rule us as we rule animals and our lasting expression is not one of thankful dying but one of fear of death for what awaits us on the other side could be another scam perpetuated by a more powerful, more ruthless maniac seeking pawns in his kingdom of pain and  sorrow, a hell that never ends here on earth our god’s are 

illusions of belief for what we are now living through is a more aggressive, a violent taking of our lives through not the devil but the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few that dictate to us how we will live and who we will serve and their morals are illusive and their ethics are non- existent when dealing with us, their inferior creatures but they will share ideas of criminal actions with others of their clans for wars equal profits, hunger equals profits, for the weak will do anything to save their

families, our taxes equal profits for they have had their hands in our pockets since the beginning of time, their dreams are not about saving people or saving this planet from extinction but who can come up with the next plan to take, exploit and kill for their investments are a little light right now so we need to start another war so we can sell the poor slobs our military madness with profits rising again, I think I will build myself a fortress away from our oceans rising and have my black-water soldiers 

surround my home to protect me and my 6th wife if she behaves herself and doesn’t shop without my consent, myths run rampant giving more to the wealthy than they deserve, for they are not godlike in their everyday activities of making millions of dollars off the backs of their workers here in the US of greed and around the world, creating a growing poverty of the middle class and the already poor, these predators seek worship for their knack of stealing someones hard earned money, we deserve more

these rich personas seek glowing praise for the peanuts they give to charities that they write off as expenses, and they never do the dirty work themselves for they are above the little details of stealing from the people and giving themselves bonuses for they have their designated middle men that hire mercenaries to carry out the vital protection of their assets at all costs what we get for our struggles is the drum beat of death, our lord and protector silent after his sacrifice twenty centuries ago now we must fend

for ourselves in a wasteland of ruthlessness, brutal hate for anyone different in skin and prayer for their mood changes with their profit margins, every million stolen heightens their need for more pain for the worker bees, the horror of lives abandoned to fend for themselves in a violent arena without cause and effect just hate forging its material greed, demanding more profits at the expense of the little people ignorant of their death

In being a photographer one must be open to the flow of potential subjects that catch your eye. For there are an infinite display of choices one must fight through before one sees with intuitive eyes his undercover subject demanding to be present.

Our reality is open for business all a photographer has to do is find his purpose for being present in this landscape, cityscape, people oriented, clouds, buildings etc.. all waiting for you to explore openly with feeling and purpose, your mind beginning to see deeper into the subjects present possibilities that will make you open your visual senses and experiment with this particular subject that can give you the training needed to really look in depth internally and externally when dealing with mother nature to find scenes that you ignored previously but now are beginning to see their full potential.

Why think small when you are making images that you find extraordinary and demand your full attention and time to unfold the potential subject when before you just ignored them. Each subject you come upon has the infinite possibilities.

Making photos is more than just clicking your shutter and moving on to your next quick snap shot.

In order to create great photographs you have to let go of your previous photo-cliches and immerse yourself in the landscape anticipating changing light, knowing what shutter speed will work the best, your tripod ready, peoples expressions beginning to unfold, still life close-ups, long exposures, waterfalls all present before you, your visual senses beginning to narrow ones intuitive force seeking a unification of the scene as you slow down and begin to see the image evolving into a color extravaganza, highlighting mother nature as the sun sets and your eyes opening to a spectacular sky with a dramatic landscape.
