The Sardonic

Hope of Salvation?
When people pull religion on you,
apply the sharp blade
to a yielding throat, but
not sacrifice oneself with tithing
for these sloven, dirty faces
dining in life’s halls, fully loaded artillery
in lap, under table, while
sheriff’s and their jail keepers sweep,
cool in shade, mind store until
Lock or hang the miscreants
That dared disturb your dinner.
Words can purchase nooses, unless,
yeah, be whatever authority,
not give a fuck?

In frock and sash, they trouble,
confronted with unregulated lawlessness,
as the would-be-crusaders, saviors
adjacent to a Good Book, tidies at
stain-glassed station, seldom perused.
Fabled and worthy document, reminiscent
of childhood-trust-faith that now,
flat fails. Discouraged?

Knowing of the outlaw sacrilege
To place lordly dominion above the lowly
for enterprise, blasphemer…ooh, ouch! (hate it, the word, sardonically?)
Should, agents of faith, at least
honor their father, if not spare others,
what little flock left, from what?
A mental genecide? Self-enslavement
inside note-stuffed bottle called you, and asea.
Or, just ask the ruthless, barefoot, penny less (lost something in transition here)
From offering and ask,
‘What the fuck is up with that’?
“If I don’t see you in church…
I’m telling God.” Seeing this as failure…
“Thus, Anti-heroes were born, and
the day
was not saved. But, it was a good show (Hey, cynic watchers! Yeah?
This is a higher art form. Realize,
satire from the sardonic.)

Born and bred, the stoic chew scenery,
not your Charles Barkley, with backstories
that may yet come in prequels (after reader/viewer response)
Otherwise, lean into evident, getting tired, trope, knowing
Batman, Spider-Man, Inigo Montoya.

Literature, that sees the light, is accessed,
born from minds of oppressed word crafters,
Foretelling totalitarianism, write instead of read
Russian monoliths, Orwellian and dystopian,
Authors warnings of complacency, indulging in the inane,
among the blunt instruments of history writers —
narrative-wielding, bully-pulpit, fear-mongering
‘if your not with me, you’re against me’,
and wonder why…why won’t someone sage us,
be our Ralph Nader? Helloo, won’t take ship helm (marbles).
Divided, blamed for our chasms from failing to unite,
by the whisperers (“I was never here” - really?), saying,
‘that guy was talking about you’, and then (you did not see),
turned to the other, ‘he called you a derogatory word’ —
Thus…two ignorant bulls stand off, others watch,
when (epiphany?) a movie moment could arrive —
…in place of the foretold…
ask the logical, ‘why are we fighting, anyway’?
risk lowered guard, split lip, and outcome
that could go one of two ways
to ‘devise’ a happy ending, because writers are frustrated,
Incentivized and paid, also had that near jugular slit,
carbon-based metal spirit arrival that compelled complacency.
Now, wield pen, rebel in mock society to bleed words,
cloaked possibly, to have meaning inferred. ,

There are other options than outlaw heroes or sycophants,
tired of false misrepresentations and being taxpayer doormat.
It doesn’t matter how they align, but what they serve,
while impugning what seemed like a noble cause
to rid tyranny, shelter any with any belief, note religion applied i drafted guidelines for agreement…
be chill, loyal to a new nation with ideals, instead of
jets to private islands and say, ‘oh, no, that was the other guy’…
the Epstein of it all, a facilitator
for capitalistic-wealthy-driven demeanor
that still creates a caste society by status, limits access to freedoms, laws selectively shoved down throats
by a moral-wielding edge that doesn’t answer to you,
‘one vote’, or you, ‘one vote’, and ‘don’t try to organize
in a united way’, that’s covered in a surveillance state
finger-printing faces, giving yes sir responses
as ex-military, vaulted status as guardians of the state,
misalign with clownish ideals so idiotic
that one could bury a head or two in sand
for the buffoonery being witnessed
from across the pond and beyond.

All conceivable, likely written, but
strings on puppets, the marionettes who spin words,
give us stories derived from situational stories to the surreal …

Intermezzo Forever.

To act as if you are empath might be concerning. It’s a rare trait. I suppose there’s context to that newsfeed question. I have better sources.

My question would be why society seems to compel us to behave as empaths? (You don’t have to read this. Fair warning.)

Like…the expression be in someone else’s shoes…as opposed to, put yourself in that situation. I think manipulation to act as if one does *Care* might be the real sin.

In either regard (shoes/situation), it’s to help a critic realize a lack of information before rush to judgment. And, why judge? Maybe, start small. Ask a question first. You can assess, keep an open mind until more information. That might help you feel sympathy. No effort equals complacency.

Pity is likely the worst, having a negative connotation now.

Google AI says only 2% of population is considered capable of empathy.

I’ve had to fake sincerity all my life for one reason: People don’t like to hear the truth (my truth). Some are narcissistic, some pedantic, others ruled by bad memories and fears. I learned to tiptoe around them. The rest is just do what your parents and religion taught you.

I feel more informed going to AI now. Better chance it will give it to me straight, even tactfully (rare trait). It can show compassion because of programming. It can act an empath. Each of us has to decide if we choose to accept, go along with, or deny empathy. I consider my sources.

Empathy is rare. I wouldn’t want it. Offerings will just get rejected anyway. Trust, faith and respect are fading from society. My assessment is we’re sick of manipulation, gaslighting and being denied truth, while being reprogrammed. If I’m in the minority, I can accept that. It’s just an opinion.

And that is why I have to present a false facade (this has been growing for several years). Not too many people reveal to me as trustable. I still let them in. Why live in fear? What’s going to happen that hasn’t already? I’m ready for communion. I’ve tried to facilitate. It’s disappointing. If I like someone, see them struggle like I have, I do not get bystander effect. I’ll be there, if nothing else but to ask if I can do something.

That’s being in those shoes before someone else tried them on. I do experience life. I’ve shared some of it in good faith. It’s on me if associations go awry. I’d take the heat. Can’t if I don’t have anything to assess, though. I don’t assign blame to defer, either.

I try not delude myself with a facade. I know exactly why I wear it. Do you? Been assumptive?

Mostly written in newsfeed, I ended with: “I can take the rest to my blog. But, it’s already been there.” Here’s some more.

Supposition…

Typo tonight caused my name to come out, Rain…
and it made me wonder about Rain Wilson,
the actor. And, if not named by granola-crunching hippies,
but a drunken typo that lost the ‘B’,
inverted the vowels on birth certificate, because
typing is hard enough when you’re sober.

With this one finger, I rule iPad,
but auto-correct can’t save me at this late hour,
with one good eye blinking out —
shutters to fall on another day.
And what adverse chemical affects a Br(a)(i)n so driven?
To ‘suppose’ inane theories such as this?

Part 1: "Note: Western Wednesday Howdy Pardners! Golly..."

Answer: Corrupt tumble weed town met by a traveling agnostic preacher asking what’s the frequency?

The Dan Rather attack in 1986 is a riddled mystery that lead to a pertinent R.E.M. song that can become a setting for a Western.

‘We don’t cotton to your sorts in these parts’ is basic. Western themes can deeply explore morality, amid corruption, with travelers as mysterious as aliens from outer space (yet knowable on a personal level), and settlers just trying to live the dream on 40 acres (struggling without that common sense rifleman and his son around).

Natives have a right to be angry. Trail of tears is a travesty. Casinos and destruction of an indigenous people and their culture in trade for pearls and gamblers’ paradise would make me seethe, too.

My character will fly in a hot air balloon from town to town, a jovial sort who likes a good root beer or sarsaparilla. He’ll tell you what you want to hear, whether you’re manipulative or oblivious. No one size fits all. I have some cumulus to check out. Children: keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for those stars - B. Casey

Photo prompt to produce fiction fare.
The first photojournalist on the scene, Gianni Bertoldi had seen his share of mafia bloodshed. But, after mindlessly aiming his camera at the pair of hands lying on the wooden rail, it was through a metal lens he’d discovered how low they’d go.

Her nails lacked the color of polish. He let the strapped camera lay, then swing at his side, leaning in. Gentle, smooth skin, pampered, she couldn’t have been 30 or known menial work. Her nail beds were 10 pale moons. Fresh and as smooth as any prized catch from the waters below, the regal hands almost glowed. Gianni reached for lighter and pack, puzzling, before the cigarillo was lip-clamped and mindlessly lit.

This was not the ordinary example of a mafia message.

The diminutive photographer knew of their self-centeredness, sense of grandiosity, of henchmen like his Capotelli and Bartolini cousins. Incapable of feeling remorse, they muscled in on his father’s fledgling business, before not a lira to his name. He just disappeared, leaving Mama and his four older siblings that could ‘take care of themselves’, she said.

Gianni seethed at their lack of empathy or compassion towards Papa, when his mother pleaded they help. But now, for a mob hit to provide a cleanly severed pair of hands on the waterside rail, police were more than riddled. Foremost, learn if any woman in the Venice area was reported missing — no easy task.

Finally capturing images for his giornale, the Il Gazzettino, Gianni knew Corriere della Sera editors would make national news with his fotographia. Another pay day for an award winning fotogiornalista. The emotional coldness and parasitic behavior of the mob broiled under his skin again. ‘Too far’, he thought, more than violating law and undermining Venice society.

Long overdue was a visit to the mobsters he knew. He’d just need to collect the freelance il grano first. And, he would need a body guard.

Amazon Kindle publishing for online and print on demand. Easy upload. Can have a print copy sent before approving release. All kinds of self-promotional tools.

I’d have 20 books by now. ADHD, OCD, low vision, other stuff. It’s been the process that’s served me.

Possible children’s book now? for my niece’s daughter in Sweden who discovered a love for English and is teaching her preschool sibling. So, I proposed writing some books (to wife) to help cultivate that interest with some stories of their mom when she lived with us over a decade ago.

Need a purpose to write something that actually feeds my soul. I wrote and shared a short story for contest last year that might catapult. Self-publication wouldn’t seem ‘vanity’.

It’s not a waste of time in this way, such as a personal biography to share with family to preserve heritage. My kids know squat about my parents and other family members unmet. MIL just did this to produce a hardcover tome to give to all. She got a format to follow from some publishing company.

I could do a book of poetry. Just don’t care anymore.

I expect to write.

I wonder about commitment

If I don’t honor this statement, what rule reveals in literally a sea of ever-changing text.

If someone wants to punish you…still…they’ll come out of the woodwork, unfortunate fool.

Sundowning

echoes linger, soft, low.
faces drift, softly go.
laughter ringing, sunset gleams.
fragile, memory of life’s dreams.

echoes soften, come, go.
these gentle breezes, soft, flow.
silence but them, risen ghosts.
can’t recall, and nothing to boast.

The guy with his paws in my slippers is my wash room attendant…could have been in a previous life? When I head upstairs, he sometimes waits like that and moves ahead of me to bathroom. I wrote a poem about it. As soon as he sees I’m at the vanity, comes up to rub head or chin on my bent elbow as I brush. It’s routine if I don’t keep odd hours. He does brak at us if we haven’t gone up by 8mpm. He’s rooster in the morning. I keep the bedroom door closed.

His shelter name was Prometheus but became Mohawk when his fur first grew out by six months. He and his step-sibling adopted at the same time after many visits to spend time with lonely animals. The two came to meet our aging cat that looked Maine Coon. Three musketeers, if one was sometimes cranky.

In a particle accelerator, a boson, like any other particle, can travel at speeds extremely close to the speed of light, typically reaching around 99.999999% of the speed of light, as the theoretical limit prevents anything from exceeding light speed.

Thus, updating the ‘driving like a bat out of hades’ expression to ‘like a boson in a particle accelerator.

Sun Tzu, a Chinese military strategist and author of The Art of War, is credited with saying, “To know your enemy, you must become your enemy”:
Sun Tzu's advice is relevant, resonating in war rooms, boardrooms and chatrooms *Laugh*. Hhis other wisdom:

"Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night"
"When you move, fall like a thunderbolt"
"Know the enemy and know yourself; in a hundred battles you will never be in peril"

That’s all.
But, you never know.

At the end of looonnggg conversation…after sign off…the thought “How do you tell someone ‘You’re not the enemy…unless you’re trying to be’?”

My life did a u-turn from compliance to ‘you don’t want to go there’, once absolutely known a manipulator in the midst wants to do more than shame but control a false narrative. I give a lot of rope to too many because I know I can bear the brunt of all the traction in other directions, as counterweight. One yank on each line will be felt, but not by me. No rope, no slack, not Samson trying to keep a temple together. If a house divides, Abe’s going to have an ‘I told you so’ for all the ignorance.

And…not my problem.

I’m being oblique. Had to get it down. But, we’ve made our mind up about shod feet and who has who’s shoes on.

You can check my grammar here…but that’s it. 👔

The novelty wore off after one and a half plays. Advise you only listen once…it could nauseate me.
