whether one feels alive or dying
your mind senses a blockage
of ones inner demands

there are no realities that bring forth
mother earths damnation for our guilt,
the violent destruction of her planet

for each action taken for profits
for each voice screaming for help
for each nightly silence praying in fear

to become more, one must let go of all
the nonsense in our minds believing
in those of power, they could care less

of our hellish world they created for
greed is and always was their mentor,
their means of mighty profits

at the expense of the little people
being worked to death, their greed
comes from thousands of years

of exploiting all that were nailed to the
cross of prayers that never saved lives
but blossomed to become savage thugs

setting up the physical and mental
appearance of someone that looks
well educated, married with beautiful

children but one must be careful not 
to rock their interior reality, or the
undercurrents of your physical existence

that must open ones eyes to the false
words spewed from these rich beasts
that enjoy their power of gluttonous hate

the beginning is over
each of us have the
explicit need to become
someone of power and

greed, your old life was
stagnate without hope
of a changing future, 
your anger raised to

create fear in those
attacking voices demanding
one stand forward without
fear seeing your adversary

in his eyes glowing with 
alarm and anxiety, mankind
is without hope, our future
could prosper if anger and

fighting were null and void
listen we are not here for a
loss of our money, loss of
our health, loss of friendship

loss of purpose, what we 
demand is an openness
of thoughts trying to find a 
means of stability without

destroying human lives as
if they didn't matter, just 
peons that are expendable
for the rich desire power

over this world for they are
the new god's that control 
this dying planet as mother
nature grows ever more angry

what choices do we have for our 
leaders of greed take and take
from the people on the verge of
bankruptcy, many billions are in
or close to poverty, and the wealth
of the 1% is a con game for the 
act they say for the good of the 
people as if they truly care for
their welfare, we keep you addicted
to drugs we make a fortune on, as
the rich also love money, power
and sex, for they keep sending 
plausible alibies in order to use
their addiction to sexual intercourse
devours the source of our physical
reliance on those that adore the
one percent for their active seduction
by breaking apart the oblivious
truth even though we are stagnant
deep in confusion of their mixed
words, their lies and greed that
can take your mind away from 
your own truth, the one that in
your early years brought forth
a young man with morals and ethics

one might be understood
a feeling of inconsequence
as one supposedly undermines
ones energetic role as a
distraction, yes you can and
will express something in
words vague notion without 
depth a shallow thought in 
menacing a sculptured body,
infinite universe as big as our
ego's demanding attention, a 
reckoning of ones aching fear,
one ready, out to grab a hand
that pulls away

we seek a relativity of time for
the past is our future and the
present our past, the same unity
is present in us, our existence
ordered and placed seeking 
redemption we twist on the 
priest's words in silent
contemplation as he listens to
your sins, 

all eyes upon you, as you leave
the confessional with your rosary
in your sweaty hands for public
worship is a ritual, an arrangement 
of a repetitive service a blessing 
of our godly eucharist

our time unified and accepted in
our physical existence silence now 
is anticipated, as dark thought
holds nothing worth speaking

we flaunt our necessary savage actions
demanding nature, we move through
our infinite space oblivious to the
content of our voices once praised
for now, a mind moving forward with
hope and purpose not lying dead
without action or a need to defend 
our souls being taken and put to rest

the continuous lies,
the politicians faith

why the worship of
concrete sorrow

for all must perish
without a means of

simplicity, a knowing
freedom of guilt

each has their unique
order of thoughts

that placate their disguise
of inner hate

we slip easily into a
distinctive anger

toward those with different
opinions for nobody seeks

now true love only an ordered
relationship without hope

survival is fruitless, despair
we know our future terror

begins with our minds ordered by
propaganda to build hate

toward all that don't see like
us, hate like us or talk like us

someone else knows of our
lives of sin for god abandoned
his children, our eden and
booted our parents out of
their home as they became
defenseless as our father, 
our god turned his back on 
his creation these sinners 
human nature is a malaise
of anger, fear and hate 
toward any that doubt
your belief in an invisible
god, son and holy ghost
and when in hunger for 
food and sex mankind will
kill for pleasure and rape
for fun, for we see in ourselves,
in our humanity a retreat from
the glory days of natures
wonders as we prayed to our
invisible god and in silence
we felt the cold winds hurrying
toward the valley floor seeking
those that without purpose denied
their god and sought wisdom and
and friendship in each other 
without judgement or a crucifixion

Mother and Son

your mind play's games
when one has a stagnant 
mentality unwilling to bring
forth a series of mis-
representation of your 
future, thoughts beginning
to turn inward away from
the startling representation
of those that voice their
evil ways with pride, these
rich worded propaganda's,
these maniacs of wealth use
their bought and sold sheep
afraid to upset the powers
that own this planet and own 
these so called for the people
liars, the con men and women
of our congress and senate
for if you listen to their language
for their words are redundant on
and off it goes and segments of
the population believe in these
crooks of greed, of vice and 
robber barrens taking what they
demand is theirs and no one else's
for this planet is for us the rich, 
determined to destroy this planet
and all it's habitats for the these
humans belong to us the oligarchs
for our power to steal has been
here on this spec of dust without
a means to escape the true death
of all of us, so one must find 
their lot in life and own your 
means of moving upward in the
company of thieves and the
deadly belief that you are someone
with power and means to take
what we want when we want it

I don't know what faith I have
been installed with, I seem to
have lost meaning in the words
torturous reflection of sinners
their specialty exciting, the mind
jumps into the pit of religious
zealots looking for an easy mark
-----
what is truth but someone's lies,
each finds a secure hold on some-
thing that gets them through their
daily nightmares, wasted days
-----
salvation is a mirage, a means
of emptying your youthful purpose
of creation, for we all create just
like our holy father but we limit 
our bravado instead toward a
meager simplicity of doubt, a
stuttering thoughts twisted in
----- 
words not your own, a voices
accusations, jealous of your
intuition, trying to derail your
hopes of a gifted insight as they
take from you your once hopes
your inability to persevere now

Everyone is a poet, novelist, painter
and a photographer what we don't
understand is that wealth now takes,
dominates your abilities to make
images and then sells them in volume.

Making images used to be a job
worthy of your income, excitement at 
seeing your photograph on a billboard 
or in a magazine, there was a sense of 
beauty and longevity in your image 
creations now all you receive for your
hard work is pennies on the dollar.

In the old days photography was 
immersing yourself into a reality that
sees your inner vision materializing.

Photography now is not an art form
it is a copy machine where the
photographer's are creating products
to sell, there is no depth in imagery
today just quick surfaces posing as
copycat scenes.

Photography is more than just snap 
shots of a reality twisted with dangerous
climate disasters, and our income, our
money doesn't go to the photographers
on an equal bases, back when it was
a 50/50 proposition and everyone was
happy, now 99% of our images go to
the masters of greed while we receive
peanuts!!

The parade of photo images are just
people enjoying the chance to make
pics with some kind of deliverance,
who cares if they never get the big 
bucks and you never will for now all
go into the pockets of greed!

Photography once was a means of 
creating from your heart iconic
landscapes, portraits, sports, track,
football, baseball, basketball .......
but now you don't make enough 
money to do any photography 
except for your ideals for these
Getty's of greed could care less
concerning your life for they only
care about their wealth and power!

Why there wasn't a union to protect
our livelihood, our hard earned
images traveling all over the globe!

We have moved radically away from
photography as an art form and made 
it into a corporate's ideal of selling
products in volume, once digital
steamed, rolled over film b/w and
color, there was no use trying to
be an independent artist expressing 
you inner ideal perceptions now lost!

You shoot digital, you don't need any
intuitive relationship with a scene, 
shoot quick and move on for when
you upload images on to your computer
you can correct any flaws such as 
bad colors and compositions.

Deception, manipulation, technology
creating human characteristics as if 
real, another lessening of our abilities
to make great portraits for soon we
will be left in the dirty dust unleashed
undermining a photographers belief
in his future!

We are drawn now to a fast paced life,
what we have learned is that taking 
images now is repetition not looking
deep into a impressive scene but just
a quick snap shot should to the trick,
what do we learn making images when
we begin to see our own inner vision!

The aging process makes you feel you
are slowly being taken away, fear is your
overriding need to create words and
images for your children and grandchildren
describing your early photography and your
constant revelations of potential subjects!

Think before you make and image, reinterpret
a scene in a new and original way, contextual 
clues creating new framing that will bring out
your intuitive understanding of light and your
concept beginning to unfold. Mother nature
invites the observer to impart new meaning
to a scene by your full appreciation of sunlight,
composition, sunset and your awareness of
nature's beauty and your presence enjoying
the here and now without interruptions!!

Photography Needs Help

images of the masses are repetitive
subjects that are lazily redundant and

cliche without depth of classic iconic
images that once were made by the

great photographers of our past
present and hopefully our futures

when creating images their are many
possibilities to find those subjects that

you feel represent your inner interests
and catch your eyes, and you mind

turns to get a better look at the landscape
unfolding in a beautiful sky, fluffy clouds

and dramatic barns as you travel through
small towns in eastern washington,
 
and finding yourself stopping along a
highway and see in the distance a beautiful

dramatic subject with possibilities so 
you stop bring out your gear and set up

you camera tripod as you begin a deeper
revelation of the mountains and the 

dramatic composition that will lead your
viewer into a wonderful photograph that

the artist felt the potential and the beautiful
growing sunset light which gave you the
 
necessary foundation to wait patiently as
your subject opened its beauty and your
 
composition created a dramatic, wonderful 
landscape of mother nature at her best

Criminal Minds


humans have not evolved
very far from their animal
behavior, anger, jealousy,
envy, hate, criminality,
stealing, lusting, killing,
polluting, lying, cheating,
destroying, murdering, 
losing, pleading, demanding,
selling drugs, climate
destruction, wealth, tornados,
hurricanes, tsunami, violence,
power, slavery, religion....

we seek the same thing
we sought with our spears
and rocks and that is
powerful control over others

instead of being in the hierarchy
of the tribe we seek power in
business as our controlling 
force that feeds our ego's as
others' do what they are told
and they give the power's that
be kudo's of their corruptions
and we now see the facade of
wealth as not wise but selfish in
their instinctive demands, minds
of genius in industry but what
they truly feel is jealousy, 
facades of insecurity demanding
praise and respect from all the
peons around this planet that they
own, and we the people must keep
our eyes on the ground as we
pass these giants of greedy selves
and we know they are just as 
human as us but without the caring
for other human beings, for they
learned early in their lives from
their father and mother the advantage
of being pushy, aggressive, unfeeling
to take what is not yours, to destroy
what is known to compete with your
products to ignore the poor and
homeless, maybe giving them 
something near christmas as they
get their names in the paper for
their generosity, contributing to
a particular pet charity that caught
their eye as they were destroying 
jobs and cutting the hourly rages
of the working stiff, 

we the rich are always aggressive
in our attacks on competition, on
people protesting to keep their 
rights and their lands

for we beings of animal lust still
hunt our prey but this time we use 
laws we the rich created to protect
us from being sent to jail for we are 
the power's that be, kings and queens
of the past, present and our futures
and we created a god's existence for
the people, they have been corralled
for 1,000's of years to believe in all
manner's of god's until the religious
fanatics created jesus christ to placate
the human race to obey their god and 
their priests of sociopathic tendencies, 
and this keeps humans humbled waiting
for the day god will return from where
who knows, and lift the human race up
to the heavens as the wealthy just 
laugh and enjoy the comedy of churches
more corrupt than the titans of industry

what is your purpose on this speck of dust
called a planet that is travelling through the
solar system amongst billions of planets in
an ever expanding universe that brings us 
closer to our needed revelation of visitors
not gods but an advanced space craft that
would if attacked by our gluttony for rockets
in deadly wars, could destroy this small 
gluttonous planet without thinking twice
for we are conditioned in being young in
years to act a certain way, to dress accordingly,
to accept the truth of our aging, our desire
to prop up the wealthy as our leaders of
powerful demands when we the worldwide
props that work until ill or dying from
polluted air and crushing tornado's destroying
our future because they, our owners need 
more cash from the peons that do the dirty 
work and are paid pennies on the dollar

the fruitless whimpering,
a loss of one's stature
for good or bad we all
adapt to our attempt to
move beyond those that
feel abandoned without
any means of escape for
now all we desire is a 
way to move beyond those
corralled living in a backdrop
of hope but no hope is 
present, you will not move
up the ladder of power but
stay in your blind lost
corral where there is no
demands acknowledged
for the powers that exist
behind curtains where you
only hear their voices angry
without morals for very few
rise to the camouflage of
wealth for most lie on the 
street wondering where 
does life begin again and
when did life care about
living in stagnant air, your 
breath dying from polluted
greed while the rich thirst
for more and more profits
